Disclaimer: I'm in a really shitty mood, but why in fuck's name do ppl post on a thread that's hours or days long with THE most simplistic suggestion, like "you need to call them" (a current thread)?

Read. The. Fu*king. Thread. People!

And no, I ANBU. Don't @ me 😂

I know what thread you are talking about Grin i literally want to scream at my phone every time i see it yanbu (hanging around waiting to see what happens in that thread haha)

SeaViewBliss · 03/12/2019 13:22

I'm in a really shitty mood too so I'll agree with you and add thread titles that don't tell you anything.

Is this acceptable?
Am I wrong about this?
Do you think this is fair?

YANBU!

Cancel the cheque.

No don't be silly now. I have a very witty and funny obvious suggestions that not a single one of the previous 896 posters have managed to think of Grin

TheRobinIsBobbingAlong · 03/12/2019 13:30

People that don't read the thread and ask silly questions that are either in the OP, or answered since. If you don't want to read every post then fine, but at least read the OP's highlighted responses.

Posters who write about some drama and expect replies, and then disappear for hours on end leaving lots of unanswered questions and posters wondering if they'll return.

QueenOfOversharing · 03/12/2019 13:31

Haha! Oh thank you all of you! You have made me laugh. I'm normally a very calm, understanding person, but honestly!

As for the vague post titles - we need to all boycott replying. I would if I wasn't so damn nosey! Confused

As for "that" thread... COME ON OP - I am living jealously vicariously through the thought of someone getting an £8K windfall right before Christmas!

Calm, blue ocean! deep breaths

I nearly shouted at a woman for jumping the queue in Starbucks - do not get between me & my coffee when I'm in this mood, woman!

It's for this reason that I think MN should give you the option to filter to show OP only posts, not just highlight them.

"but at least read the OP's highlighted responses"

They aren't highlighted on the website, which is very annoying. At least in the app the OP's username has a different colour.

QueenOfOversharing · 03/12/2019 13:33

@TheRobinIsBobbingAlong all of this, yes! I swear MN is not helping my mood today. I need to log the f*ck off! Hmm

QueenOfOversharing · 03/12/2019 13:35

I agree - we should be able to choose just OP replies - on app it's easier to just scroll & watch out for different colour.

Stop putting a fucking in the word fucking. If you can't type it without the then don't use it.

There, so much better.
As you were Op.

SureTry · 03/12/2019 13:37

I was just about to check up on that thread, you've saved me a couple of minutes, thanks. Feel free to keep ranting though Grin

coconuttelegraph · 03/12/2019 13:39

Yes they are @PianoThirty maybe you don't have it turned on

SeaViewBliss · 03/12/2019 13:41

I can see OPs posts in a different colour on the website.

SeaViewBliss · 03/12/2019 13:41

MulticolourMophead · 03/12/2019 13:48

Yes, as previously posted, you can certainly see OP posts in a different colour on the website, just change your settings.

pippistrelle · 03/12/2019 14:16

I thought this was a very angry thread about Russia Today. (I wouldn't blame you.)

I agree.

MilleniumHallsWalledGarden · 03/12/2019 14:33

You don't need to put asterisks in swear words on MN and it's annoying when people do. Fuck off with your coy fucking pseudoswearing.

marymungoandminge · 03/12/2019 14:34

OP can I suggest you call them? Grin
