To say sorry to you all....

[Sunnybitch]

Hello all
Ive been a member for quite a while now and have to admit that ive found this site quite 'harsh' (sorry) and have never really posted or learned the lay out ect but ive finally come to the conclusion that the sparkly site is just a over moderated pain in the ass (even that would get stared out ffs) and that you ladies say it as it is and give people 'real advice' without pandering to them!
(Sorry if this is in the wrong place)

It's a genuine point though.
There are enough people being rude and obnoxious here under guise of telling it like it is. More are not needed

Maybe Netmums doesn't have a Flouncers Corner.

I'm going to suggest it to them.

You know the rules of Fightclub don't you?!

Nah, welcome.

I've just been reading that thread Sunny :)

The only reason i said that usual, was because i am used to the other site and the way they talk and i know members of this site are not that keen on that speak!

I can see your points as well, Fanjo and Usual.

I moderate a predominantly male forum and it's brutal. Banter is very different from outright abuse but you'd be amazed how many people don't get that.

And i did jump to the wrong conclusion with this site! So far everyone has been lovely. And no im not here to slag nm's off

Don't call people hun. Don't put lol. Don't put kisses. Hand holding and hugs are acceptable for people having a shit time.

The smileys are better on the other side.

Hmmm...

One persons being rude is another persons telling it how it is though!

The true mark of a mumsnetter is to apologise if they fuck up. Then name change.

Welcome op and hope you are dropping the 'Hun' 'little man' and 'princess' and embrace the cunt/fuck/bollicks.

Ps you've probably noticed there are no sparkles and banners, there are however emoticons and various words or phrases you may use. Vipers is one. Not ladies ever ever.

In fact a lot here are really nice and if you seem to be "piling in" on someone where it's not deserved then Matron will come along and give you a darned good telling off and bring you down a peg or too.

Although it appears so on AIBU

Hello Sunnybitch and welcome!

As long as you like Zombies

You may occasionally use the flowers symbol if you really feel sorry for someone, apologise on a post or send a PM. take AIBU with a pinch of salt.

You can customise what you see on here. So I don't see baby names threads, conceiving threads etc because I'm beyond that stage.

I just looked on the other site and there's nothing even remotely interesting in active.

Speak for yourself BastardGoDarkly. I prefer to think of myself (and MN) as the better of two evils. Certainly not 'lesser' than Nethuns, anyway!

Ooooh I haven't seen those emoticons before usual. Very exciting.

I'm with usual on this.

I hate the slagging off of NM.

Either post there, or if you don't like it, don't.
