I'm not, am I?

If you don't know what dh/ds/dd means, browse a bit and read a bit until you do.

If you don't know how to add smileys or links, explore a bit further on the site, until you do.

If you think everyone is horrible - go back to wherever you bloody came from!

theres an acronyms page?! well I've never found that yet

There is, but dd, dh etc are NOT ACRONYMS.

But when I put up a post asking for people's opinions I didn't think anyone's opinion would be different to mine!!! Surely people aren't allowed to just post their thoughts? shock

I agree, everyone who disagrees with me is a rude, unkind, trolling bully and should be banned as they wouldn't dare disagree with me face to face.

It's not only God that doesn't like all the swearing. I don't either. It makes the poster sound rough and illiterate

Ooh I do so love it when me come onto MN and tell us not to be " rough" . I come here to pick up tips on how I can be more acceptable to men, so thanks for that .

And assuming that you refer to the Judeo -Christian God, I think you'll find that the Bible is remarkably silent on the subject of swearing, it only mentions taking Gods name in vain.

No mention of fuck, wanker , toss pot, cocklodger, shit, bastard and other Mn favourites .

Or you could just ignore the posts that irritate you and let people get on with it? You don't have to respond to posts that you find pointless and irritating Smile not trying to antagonise with this comment - just pointing it out

I always thought that the God of Abraham was likely to be the robust sort, really, what with putting Isaac through a near death experience and flooding the earth and all that.

I wish we had a 'like' button or even a 'ODFOD' button! :)

More like just trying to tell us how to DO MN Grin

Part of the whole point of this forum is engagement with others and exchange of ideas though isn't it?

Seriously I've learnt so much about myself and have been challenges in many way, and have, I think, grown as a person though much of the more challenging stuff I have encountered here. And some of that has come from other posters going "oi, you are being a wanker, this is why".

Lynda please, Pan. My username is quite clear.

If you can't see that a man policing women's language is inappropriate on a site largely frequented by women, then I think you need to have a bit of a think about why you're here.

Illiteracy refers to being unable to read and write. Clearly this doesn't apply if the poster is using written English on a web forum (including - saints preserve us - those dreadful four letter words).

I'll tell you what makes me think a person is a bit of a dim bulb; not understanding the meaning of everyday words.

VladmirsPoutine · 12/09/2016 11:34

I am laughing hysterically at the idea that DTS could have been interpreted as Dear Transexual. Grin.

Lynda Well said.

I've been supported, I've been flamed. I got on with it. I've been reported for swearing too much so I've reigned it in a little. So whoever the little fuckers were who reported me, they can fuckoff back to cuntsville.

MrsDc7 · 12/09/2016 12:05

Be more panda... Not trying to tell you how to DO MN (not sure why that required caps but I'll go with it) just pointing out that if someone posts irritating questions you can just... keep scrolling and ignore Grin

EmpressKnowsWhereHerTowelIs · 12/09/2016 12:13

I think all the swearing is fucking disgraceful.
