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

Words on a screen.

Take a deep breath and have a few days off. We've all been flamed or lightly singed at one time or another. 'Tis one of the best bits of MN; people tell it like it is and the women that can be a nest of vipers on one thread can be incredibly helpful and supportive on others so don't write it off just yet Flowers.

Em no that was not my post mrs private investigator. This goes to show that this place has a school yard mentality. Its digusting, why do people make other people so unwelcome.
'Well ive been a member since 2008'

So get over it.

U should be ashamed making someone feel so bad.

I think the word is RAW not unfriendly and shit.

there will be loads of people on NM who don't agree with you and because of the atmosphere of the site the only people who respond are people who stroke you and make you feel better about your predicament.

Here... you get what people really think.. good and bad.
You like it - stay
You hate it - go.
No point at all in moaning about it.

Glendaanddennisarentinvited · 11/10/2013 22:20

What's the purpose of this? To get thousands of people to change their ways? Apologise? Get the site changed... Or are you just ranting?

yeghoulsandlittledevils · 11/10/2013 22:20

I've had a bit of a bad reception now and then, but when it's really mattered Mumsnet has been the best help I have had from anywhere. Netmums is good in some ways, but it's not for me.

BlingBang · 11/10/2013 22:20

They'll all be over here soon anyway. Looks like Nm's is dying a slow death. Not that much traffic, not compared to here.

Donkeyok · 11/10/2013 22:20

what's that buzzing noise

Tiredmumno1 · 11/10/2013 22:20

Who is U?

Mumsnet is a great place for support, if you've been here that long you would know that.

Or have you never looked further than AIBU?
