When did Am I Being Unreasonable turn into AIBU?

[MrsTerryPratchett]

Unless I'm hallucinating, didn't it have a full title before and is now an acrony? And, when I clink on AIBU, it directs me to Topics. Or is it me?

They really should check with us first before imposing these sorts of changes.

Have there been other changes too, I saw a thread asking about childcare options changing too but thats not a topic I usually use so I didn't know if it had changed IYSWIM.

Yes, I started two threads about this. I have a foolish and misguided feeling of ownership of this free to me and for profit place.

FWR is now Feminism Chat, which irks me too. Sounds much more 'fluffy' somehow.

I dislike or even hate all the acronyms on here. Why i it my DH instead of husband? DS instead of son? etc. It makes it far too complex in my opinion. The change to AIBU is just part of it.

dosent bother me the change but i do wish they thinned out so many different topics,far to many imho

There'll be weekly threads posted by newbies asking what it stands for...

MrsTerry, Tech lives and works in New York - it's only 14.10 (ish) for him!!

Well I'm in Canada so I can wait AAALLLL day for Tech then.

It's not the change between Am I Being Unreasonable to AIBU that is the issue.

The 'quick link' if you click on Am I Being Unreasonable isn't taking us to the 'new' AIBU - IYSWIM?!

But 10 past 2 is a perfectly adequate time to respond to queries!

Offer Tech a Manhattan (cocktail) and he might surface, MrsT!

I was quite excited about being the one to start a thread about it Jennifer. But that just shows how over-invested I am...

all round. Manhattan, not so much.

I suspect it's the multiple UK techs who have made these changes.
Poor ole Main Tech (US based) might not be responsible.

I don't like it

How do you change your favourites Chimes?

I knew something had changed!

I don't like change it either.

Yes. VirginTivo thing has changed as well. All purple and a few things work differently. Annoying.

Have the special needs topics always been just SNs?

MNHQ, it was a silly idea. It may work for the initiated, but not new members, who won't know what it stands for. Or are you trying to alienate them?
Put everything in initials then.

Takes from MrsTerryPratchett If it's an excuse to drink wine then I might start to soften towards the change . . .I'm cheap like that.

How about Becoming a Parent turning into BAP?
