Thank you mumsnet but it's over

Been a poster for the last 8 years and it's been good.

However recently things have changed.

Far too many adverts seem to pop and it's got too commercial.

Tonight there's a really nasty mil thread that consist of posters slagging off their mothers/mils for doing the ironing FFS.

Earlier posters defended a paedophile footballer.

Anyway time out and sadly end of an era for me.

I actually can't believe half the threads here as so ridiculous.

It's sad but the site isn't what it was.

For me it's the uncertainty as to whether a poster genuinely is quite limited in insight or is a troll trawling. I used to err on the side of 'engage with a good heart'. Post-Jeremy, I feel hesitant.

Though I have trouble sticking to ANY of that ... Which I will see as human fallibility rather than hypocrisy.

It was me that wrote 'thick' earlier. I really should have used the phrase 'limited insight' - or actually a far longer phrase - it would have been closer to what I meant. But I'm on my phone and , bloody hell, it takes a while to type.
I think that is why many posts are quite curt these days.
I know mine are massively shorter than ye olde laptoppe days.

since XXXXX I am more suspicious of new posters too


THAT RINGS A BELL? what happened there?

The big hacker scandal?
I went off from about July until January so missed all the juicy stuff

[Sparklingbrook]

He sent the police round to Mumsnetters houses to be swatted, it was really nasty stuff.

How rude!
