To fuck OFF.

Many examples recently of people appointing themselves thread curator and being rude, annoying and pointy finger ish to other posters who disagree with them.

It annoys me more than it should.

Popcorn waiting for a bunfight? Or popcorn waiting for deletion?

On a broken arm thread? That's weird.

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 19:07

I give the oversharing thread 5 mins until deletion

Why were they popcorning on your thread?

RaspberryBeretHoopla · 24/06/2017 19:08

Have you tried policing it up a bit?

ClopySow · 24/06/2017 19:09

That oversharing thread really is developing nicely

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 19:09

Policing the oversharing thread?

tempting

Is the oversharing thread about sex?

YesMadamDeputySpeaker · 24/06/2017 19:11

On the subject of TAATs, there is one in Site Stuff right now which has been there since around April - one which I can't believe is still standing. It contains some excellent personal insults, including a hilarious one about someone's username. Not that I enjoy drama at all.

I am loving the OS thread.

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 19:11

No, High, it's about vlogging. Whatever that is.

That oversharing thread isn't about sex. I am not sure what it's about TBF. So many deletions of the OP's posts...

Wauden · 24/06/2017 19:12

That oversharing one reminds me of a scrap I saw in the street during the heat wave.

And it was in such a naice county market town. Downmarket.

Highalert · 24/06/2017 19:12

Too many deleted posts. Why am I always late to the party?

Yes, no point in policing it. The OP got deleted so many times, that the MNIA and MNBI must be on the case.

YesMadamDeputySpeaker · 24/06/2017 19:12

What made it all the more spectacular is that the bunfight occured between several long-standing posters. What a night that was..

DoloresTheRunawayTrain · 24/06/2017 19:13

The pathetic, need a picture brigade that pop up like mindless lemmings on any thread that may involve property or parking in any way, no matter how indirectly or self explanatory really chafe my tits.

SmileEachDay · 24/06/2017 19:14

Like to thread Madam?

I need weird, bunfight, bonkers thread alerts.

Sparklingbrook · 24/06/2017 19:14

Do you know what I am completely over now? Parking threads. I don't care any more. I don't even want to see diagrams and labels.

Just sort it out like a grown up.

RaspberryBeretHoopla · 24/06/2017 19:14

I love a poster who throws a wally and goes on an insult rampage.

YesMadamDeputySpeaker · 24/06/2017 19:15

Let me have a rake through 'I'm watching' to see if I can find it...

Highalert · 24/06/2017 19:15

I started a thread about the crap diagrams on threads and got slaughtered Grin

MusicToMyEars800 · 24/06/2017 19:15

Oversharing thread is about the OP following a couple on youtube who are going through ivf. (vlogging is video blogging Grin )

hippyhippyshake · 24/06/2017 19:16

Ooh ooh....

Ok, I'll bite

Lweji · 24/06/2017 19:16

In a way it is about sex.
