Ive changed my name as im peeved off. I asked for a genuine bit of advice about dd2 school, and i got abuse. Everyone is so unfriendly and jump down ur throat. Its very clicky in here and they all stick togethet. At least on netmums u get a fair hearing and gd advice, its crap here.

People come on here for an ego trip and im sick of it. Have a bit if respect and decency for peoples feelings!!! Grrrrr wish it was properly monitored

If everyone got on all the time, it would be no fun!

Much more interesting when we are deleted disagreeing with each other.

DearPrudence · 11/10/2013 23:29

If your child has been bullied and you're having a hard time, I'm really sorry for you. That must be horrible. Directing your anger at an entire bunch of MNers isn't going to help though, is it?

No-one can comment on whether you were unfairly treated in your last thread, because you won't tell us where it is.

Erm, which thread are you talking about OP?

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 11/10/2013 23:30

Seriously hellogalss - why do you want to stay here? What do you think this thread is going to achieve?

If you think you were badly treated on another thread, report the posts that you think were abusive - MNHQ are very good at dealing with such things.

But if what happened was you got robust views that differed from what you wanted to hear - well, I am afraid that is life - on MN, at least. You are going to get honest opinions from people - we say what we think, not what we think the OP wants to hear.

simpson · 11/10/2013 23:30

But you started this thread.

Or did you???

I just found myself looking up the plural of ethos.

I made a mistake by saying mn is shite. I apologise, i was just angry. The pist was last wk. But the ppl i have encountered on that thread were mean and i didnt mean the website in general. I have actually leaned some gd stuff on here

I've found Mumsnet so much more supportive than Netmums. I got a warning on Netmums for linking to a support group on a thread Hmm

Anyhoo, press the big red button Olivia and have some imitation Gin

Boosterseattheballcleaner · 11/10/2013 23:33

Vodka and iron bru sounds lush! off topic but interested

50shadesofknackered · 11/10/2013 23:33

You shouldn't have to! Why did you? Confused oh yeah! Because of my one amongst hundreds of threads about your use of 'text speak'

Just a but late in the day to mention it.

RandallPinkFloyd · 11/10/2013 23:33

I give up.

reelingintheyears · 11/10/2013 23:33

Cripes, this took orf quick...

Go jump in a lake.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 11/10/2013 23:33

"I just found myself looking up the plural of ethos." - are you going to put me out of my misery, ilovesooty? Please!

VerySmallSqueak · 11/10/2013 23:33

ilove

Ethi?
Ethopotami?

What is it? Gwaan - spill!

ilovesooty · 11/10/2013 23:33

I don't think the OP can cope with robust views. Not other people's anyway.

MoominsYonisAreScary · 11/10/2013 23:33

Sometimes people are mean, I think its unusual for everyone to be mean on a thread about a child being bullied though

ChippingInNeedsSleepAndCoffee · 11/10/2013 23:33

Do u fink u cld learn 2 spell 'n everyfink?

ConfusedPixie · 11/10/2013 23:33

Well, you have been unreasonable because you're tarring thousands of people with the same brush. You never answered my question though, What I don't understand is why you want to keep coming onto a site you dislike

HardFacedCareeristBitchNigel · 11/10/2013 23:33

Not sure that you could really describe being banned as "pretty sick"

Child abuse is pretty sick, or is cutting someone and tipping bleach over the cuts or forcing them to eat cat food off thr floor. Being banned from a forum you apparently dont like ?

HYPERBOLE !

AllThatGlistens · 11/10/2013 23:34

Ethosii?

I have to know!
