To think people who type done on a thread are wankers

[lumbago]

Or "marking my place" - particularly distasteful on a relationship thread

YNBU

I have no idea what you mean. Can you explain? Its a genuine question, not being arsey. I really don't know what you mean.

YANBU about "marking my place", hate that. I feel it's really rather rude. We have bookmarking and I'm Watching for that.

'done' is ok IMO - just a way of saying 'have completed the survey as requested by MNHQ and am bumping' or the like.

Marking my place has its uses, but agree it is distasteful at times.

What is 'done' supposed to indicate? I have never seen that.

Like... 'this topic has been done to death'? Or 'I have said what I want and now I am done and do not intend to read any of your replies'?

If it a competition you don't want to bloody bump it surely ?!
If you do a survey. Why post done ?

What does it matter to you if people mark place or type done? Are we suddenly being charged by the letter? The post? The thread?

No?

Then find something real to worry about.

Like people who start threads about 1,000s of threads. Those are the real bad guys of MN.

Oh...wait...

Yes!

I thought you had to type done on a survey so it registered with MN or something. I'll still do it because I don't want to miss a chance of winning I just followed what others did. If it bothers you, don't click on survey threads.

I agree about 'marking place' on other threads, though

I must be a wanker then.

I always put done if a poster has asked me to sign a petition, usually on the SN board. It seems only polite to me and bumps the thread for others. No idea why that's wanky?

Oh no, we don't want people starting threads on MN . That really is beyond the pale, it's not a public forum after all. Is it? Oh.

Yabu
Done

It's personal choice!!! Get over yourself!

You don't need to type done.

Done

winces at over use of exclamation marks

Are you working class?

Done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, if it's a worthy petition?

"marking my place" aways makes me think of some rubbernecker who has nothing useful to add to the thread.... why not just use the "bookmark" facility.

Usual
