AIBU to think this is the best section on MN?

[shakethetree]

Why do people keep moaning about it? - I love it!

If you don't like it hide the bleedin' thing, or even easier, just don't read any of the threads - there's 100's of other sections to moan about!

[AlpacaLypse]

Despite the world famous Talk Guidelines, about three quarters of posters in AIBU seem to be in it only for the bunfight aspect. Someone upthread compared it to a redtop magazine - you know the sort of headline? - 'My new boyfriend shagged my best friend's mother in law AND her dog what shall I do???'

I haven't blocked AIBU from my Active Conversations (otherwise I wouldn't have found this and posted on it) but I do go very very bored of some of the utter inanities that are being posted atm.

Sienna if I reported someone I would remember it. Why would you come onto a thread and try and make out that a lot of the posters are nasty and then refuse to elaborate? Not very nice, in my opinion.

[scottishmummy]

Of course one recalls jist of posts,and nuance.just not names
Only the bulgy eyed and those a bit preoccupied recall the names,the who said what

[Vintagejazz]

It's a bit like shouting insults over a wall and then ducking down when anyone retaliates.

shades of grey, shades of grey

Sienna. Well report some more.
It is up to you as much as anyone to report what you dont think is appropriate.

[Vintagejazz]

Well Scottish some of us report so rarely that we do remember the whys and wherefores. What's 'bulgy eyed' about that? I would have thought quite the opposite.

[settingsitting]

sm, if you manage to recall lists of posts, and nuance, you most definitely remember names!

[SiennaBlake]

You would remember every time you ever reported? You have a better memory than me then!

I don't recall saying a lot of posters were nasty. I'm not ducking down or looking for trouble either. I'm just pointing out that it is amusing to see some of those that complain about the nastiness don't mind dipping in and out of it themselves when it suits.

[HaroldLloyd]

Everyone remembers a few names.

I don't believe for a second they don't.

Bulgy eyes or no.

[MyFairyKing]

Well, spit out some names at least!

[HaroldLloyd]

I often go onto a thread to say some of you are nasty but I am not saying who.

That's in no way looking for trouble. No no no.

[scottishmummy]

I don't recall lists,I recall all the jists,the themes
Useful when gorn to dawgs crew are moaning.to recall it wasn't all great in ye olde day
To recall the pram scams,secret narnia threads,the fake judge,moldies

[Vintagejazz]

Well I remember because I don't report that often Sienna. I tackle people myself on the thread. I don't just pop up on a general thread and make unfocussed remarks that tar everyone on the thread.

Cowardly and not nice!

[scottishmummy]

I love the randomness of aibu

[HaroldLloyd]

You must remember a few names, here and there. Come on.

[HaroldLloyd]

Fess up.

[settingsitting]

HL, That is goading. Because if whoever you are asking names names, that is against Talk Guidelines which you probably know already.

[HaroldLloyd]

I'm talking to SM so no it isn't.

Sorry to deprive you of a goad and all.

[settingsitting]

I am reporting you and others.

[HaroldLloyd]

Ok. Thanks for letting me know.
