To wonder if you can be mumsnet famous

[WomenVsbarbie]

People that everyone knows on mumsnet. Do you remember posters names?

I am guessing EatShitDerek has changed her username. I keep trying to spot her!

Anyfucker is totally mumsnet famous.

U2 I've been keeping an eye out for her the past few days so wondered if she had NC!

EatShitDerek is the only person I've ever recognised after a name change.

Her previous name to EatShit not a new one, if she has indeed changed.

I've been interested in the much discussed Xenia since I joined. Turns out I have come across her recently, the graduate postman son mentioned above rings a bell.

I remember FabbyChick, i'lI sometimes read a particularly harsh reply to an OP and wonder if she's still herehere but under a new name

There are lots if mumsnetters I recognize on aibu, not so much elsewhere though.

Ahhh EatShitDerek has one of the best usernames, I think it's the rude ones which I recognise and make me smile. I like FatCunt, CrapBag and FuckitBucket too.

Yes where's Eatshit- PM please!
Mintyy you know me- I don't want to stalk you so say if you don't and I'll PM you.

I recognise EatShit, PigletJohn, Worra, Anyfucker and my friends from the Elderberry threads.

I always remember Mintyy and Only1scoop (or something like that)

The ones that stand out to me are worra, lem, mintyy' eatshitderek, northernlurker, lauriefairycake kingjoffrey, mrsdavidbowie and hicdraconis. I like them very much too :)

I am aware of my fellow wishy washy liberals and one or two goady fuckers yes

Don't forget Pagwatch, Maryz, Boffy, Quinty, SDTG, Thumbwitch, Alibaba, Biwi, Coco = all old ancients who have been here for yonks with the same name or same elements of their name .

I do know you srsly

And then there's Zombie, Knotty & Pistey, Trinity, Mouseface - God I should do my Mastermind special subject round on Mumsnet usernames.

I always forget the sweary ones, apart from the seminal AnyFucker.

I definitely notice those I agree with most and the er... very right wingers who I dont

And had the very surreal experience of reading a thread where I agreed with someone and laughed because I thought she was funny - only to realise I'd posted it 5 years ago under a namechange and it was a zombie thread Clearly totally egocentric

There are some very frequent posters who I recognise. I used to read a lot more than I posted and even now probably only post about 5 comments a day (which is quite a lot really)

And loads of posters ive really liked over the years have got banned

I miss them

Pigletjohn is a legend. Also Anyfucker, and maybe Solidgold... God and now I've forgotten the end bit - balls? There's other posters I always recognise but not for so fun reasons, folk who come on year after year with the same problems never resolved (despite good advice). Such is life/mumsnet!

I like when people stick to 1 name makes it familiar in a weird way makes them a bit famous

Agree Mrsjayy

laurie talking to yourself

I prefer people to keep one name but shit happens and they have to change

I recognise loads of names... Way too many to list without revealing that I'm a complete loser. I change my own so regularly that I doubt I'd recognise myself if my posts weren't highlighted.

Yeah I totally get why folk name change

Scottishmummy is still here. She was on the Pandora haters thread waxing lyrical about pweshus moments mamas (her favourite topic - which makes me wonder if perhaps she has few precious moments in her life. Much as I am not a precious gusher myself!)
