To want follow ups

[BertieBott]

Most of the times we never find out what happened in the end with the aibu. Maybe mumsnet should send a reminder email after 1 week, 1 month then 3 months.

It will also be better for seeing which strategies do and don’t work in terms of suggestions.

I agree it would be interesting! Some people do update way too much and for far too long... Softzilla for example

I agree. I've not been using this site for long, but I've discovered how frustrating it can be when you've followed a long and involved thread and then the OP just disappears, never to return and update.

You'll always get posters saying that the OP doesn't owe us anything and that this is real life and not a drama series etc but I think it's rude to engage strangers asking for advice then just waltz off into the sunset. I always come back and thank people and try to wrap up the thread. Some people invest a lot of time and experience or expert opinion (their choice of course) and to have that disregarded is rude in my opinion. But I know others disagree. Always makes me think the high drama ones are bullshit.

I liked the Softzilla updates.
