to think there's a lot of patronizing snobbery here with regards the netmums site.

[ssd]

it's as posters on mumsnet are somehow superior to anyone who posts on netmums...

I mean, whats that all about?

It's what we do best.

I'm not sure patronising is the right word?

ah hun soz to c ur upset but you no MN is SOOO much defo beta that Nethuns babez no?

LOOOOLLLLL

XOXOXOXOX

I don't like NetMums because the tickers and general loudness doesn't agree with me.

P.s YABU to post this on MUMSNET - the best place in the world.

Oh forgot to add 122640 hours since bubba 1 was born.

YANBU to think so.

Yes.

I would say mainly good humoured, slightly tongue in cheek ... ?

But then again there have been some Mumsnetters who have been treated appallingly over there. So I expect they post them in an angry or frustrated manner (rather than patronisingly).

Superior, I mean.

Yes.

YANBU. Though you have just incited more of it. People find it hilarious for some reason. Though suggest that anyone giving their kids Red Bull is wrong and people will be calling you a snob fast enough.

I joined it. I read it quickly. Never felt a need to return. I don't hate it. Just didn't get it.
This site is like totes amaze balls by comparison! :)

Aww Hun, are you having a visit from Aunt Flo?
Chocs and hugs xxx

Anyway there is something else to compare to MN now Here.

I agree! Whenever I read something snide about netmums I think 'oh jump on the bandwagon there'. I've never been to that site, I've no idea what they're like and I wouldn't want to judge a bunch of total strangers.

red bull has a calming effect on children with adhd.

Netmums, Mumsnet, Babycentre...
What's the big deal?

Yes, the social demographics of each site is a bit different, but each site has pros and cons.

I used to quite like the WYOO board of Babycentre (What's Your Opinion On...?) as it enabled people to gather opinions without descending into some of the hostile behaviour that can sometimes be seen on AIBU.

I don't hold with snobbery towards netmums, I use both sites. Although Netmums is where I started out, I do tend to use here more now.
I love both in equal measures.
sorry, love was a very netmums word to use wasn't it

it's as posters on mumsnet are somehow superior to anyone who posts on netmums...

Yeah, and?

I got banned for telling a BF "counsellor" that I was disgusted when she said that anyone who didnt BF were neglecting their DC and in her opinion were abusers. I didnt even fucking swear! Fuckers.

It's just the site layout for me. Very busy/colourful. No idea what the people are like.

Yeah, the site layout is hard to view. Their forum set up isnt very user friendly either imo, I like MN because it caters to the lowest common denominator......me!

I'm a member of both, it's alright - it does some bits and pieces way better than here but mostly its just not as good as MN. But yes I remember last year, it may have been longer a poster started a thread on MN in disbelief that Netmums had a politics section

You know you can hide the tickers/ banners etc?

Bogeyface Maybe if you'd started the message "babez, Since LO has been borned Ive been formula feedin so think your opinion is BULLSHIT xoxox" you would have been allowed to stay?

Hang on.. you mean we're not better?!

It's friendly rivalry. Most people on Mumsnet prefer Mumsnet, just as most Netmums users prefer Netmums.

You want a bunfight don't you? It's late. We're tired.
