AIBU?

To wonder why some people are ignored on MN

Some people always seem to be inadvertent thread killers don't they?
What makes people ignore others on MN? Surely somebody who is always ignored (I'm not one of them, I'm sometimes replied to, sometimes not) is not always at fault?

Or is MN just a place for us to spout our views and not listen to the views of others? I'm often never guilty of this of course

NIce to see that a doctor has heard of geopathic stress! Do you live close to pylons, by any chance?

Dowser · 07/08/2016 19:53

That should kill this thread lol!

Dowser · 07/08/2016 19:53

I'm great thanks. I've just spent all weekend dowsing/ healing my home with one of the most experienced house healers working today.

Tiring but very satisfying work. Especially when my exh ( lost soul) has been cleared from my house.

I am hoping that I Will start to feel much better now the geopathic stress has been cleared.

Amazingly my doctor recommended this.

I've not noticed a clique....there is one poster I notice others fawn over and I have no idea why....

I NC all the time though and mostly lurk, occasionally comment. MN is interesting and often very, very funny, but its not much more to me than that so I couldn't give a monkeys about cliques or getting ignored. If I want very specific advice I'll find a forum that deals with that thing.

They're a friendly bunch in gardening / craft ........less so in Aibu!

Hi dowser!

Dowser · 07/08/2016 19:15

This will now be the end of the thread.

I do seem to be a bit of a thread killer.

That too is ok by me.

Dowser · 07/08/2016 19:14

If I've got something to say I say it.
If I've asked for help and advice and get some I always try to find the thread to say thanks and if I haven't I apologise.
I don't expect anyone to reply to me but it's nice if they have.

I actually think I'm quite insignificant and anonymous on here and think they are far more prolific posters than I am.

That's ok.

If I can help someone I will. Just like I do in rl. We're still part of a community and I always try to be fair and play nice as I would want people to behave towards me.

I don't think there's a clique.

There's clearly a few names that pop up a lot and obviously are then more recognisable. I notice a lot of them have older kids so perhaps more time to post? Not entirely sure though. I read more than reply as usually get one of my kids pestering me or I have to stop them killing each other. Even if I watch and go back within an hour usually what I would of said has been said so I don't bother.

wombattoo · 07/08/2016 17:30

A11 I take it your post is aimed at me?
I have no interest in 'fawning' be that to fanjo or anyone else, and I don't think that was the tone of my post. I haven't seen posts where she has been rude and I really can't be arsed doing an AS.

angelos02 · 07/08/2016 17:01

I've been mooching about on musnet for about 10 years but wouldn't recognise a single user name. Just a bunch of randomers to me. I think MN think there's a clique but that is hilarious to me.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 07/08/2016 17:01

There's a difference between being annoyed and mean.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 07/08/2016 16:58

However if you mean I am rude to bigots or Daily Mail types then yes granted.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 07/08/2016 16:58

I could have been a lot ruder there.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 07/08/2016 16:57

Err I'd hate to think what you'd say about my posts if you didn't like them then.

This is the shit that I'm fed up with.

TortoiseVTurtle · 07/08/2016 15:50

You are not allowed to say fawning, it means that you are bitter and nasty. This thread has been taken over and love bombed

fanjo I have never engaged with you directly on a thread, but have seen many of your posts. I don't think I have ever seen you being mean to anyone. It sad that someone can even be arsed to point out that no-one pays attention to your posts. How would they know?
Stay as you are

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 07/08/2016 06:42

Aww thanks longdiling. Means a lot

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 07/08/2016 04:22

No idea, daisychain - I can't do it!
