To ask mumsnet to move all Royal Family threads..

[Theworldisfullofgs]

All brexit threads were quickly moved from AIBU to the brexit dark corner.

AIBU to ask that all the Royal Family threads are moved to the Royal Family corner. It is not nearly as important as Brexit and it's littering up AIBU so the same rule should apply.

You could just not open them.

Oh they probably will. MN is hyper-vigilant with making things they personally don't agree with disappear.

Oh god yes please, why does no one look for other threads before starting new ones?!

This one can go too

Just one thread would be good. They all basically say the same thing.

YY @ShirleyPhallus, a quick AS takes seconds.

I'd be happy for this to go to the royal family corner

YANBU as long as we can also get all the "I can't be arsed to Google it" and "I really should see a doctor but instead I'm going to get the internet to diagnose me" rubbish off AIBU as well.

Yes that would be good too

As others have said, there's this fantastic rule on MN that it's ok not to read every thread on every subject.
Where da fuck do you find the time to read everything?

I've just hidden them, to remove the clutter!

But that's an ongoing task, Maggie! Every second thread at the moment.

OMG yes please!
I cannot stand how everything these days is in AIBU

If you don't want to read, don't read. You can just scroll past.

Having all the Brexit threads exiled was a pain, please don't do it with any other topics.

What about the fact that many AIBU threads are relationship-related? Shouldn't they be moved to 'Relationships'?

What about all those starting 'posting here for traffic'? Shouldn't they be moved elsewhere?

Och, I was really enjoying all the Harry threads, oh sorry Megxit as it hilariously being called...

If you don't want to read, don't read. You can just scroll past.

But “active threads” on a mobile is limited to about 30 threads. When 8 of them are stickied threads from MNHQ on important topics such as “what did our taste testers think of these new yoghurts”, then another 15 are threads on conception / new babies / S&B / threads you have no interest on, then it only leaves a small number or potentially interesting threads.

To have another 8 of those used up on what is literally exactly the same discussion (“i love Meg!” “I hate meg!” “You’re racist!” “No I’m not!” “They’re spongers!” “Piers Morgan is right!”) then you have nothing else left on active threads

What about all those starting 'posting here for traffic'? Shouldn't they be moved elsewhere?

Yes - absolutely!

Somewhat ironically, this is the second thread about this

I don't use the mobile app, and I don't use the active threads list, either, I use the AIBU list or the chat list or the style & beauty list or education or whatever topic I want to look at.

I get bored with the constant threads about P&C spaces, buggies on buses and people who recline seats on planes, but I just don't read them.

We should have a section called Posting For Traffic

We all get bored of certain topics but we learn to scroll past. Get over yourself.

We should have a section called Posting For Traffic

Yes, hidden away

I'm with you OP.

Never mind opening them. The amount of thread titles alone are making me question my vision.
Couldn't get remotely worked up about what H & Megs are up to, what's with the multiple threads? People are so invested it's bizarre.

Yes, we can all scroll past, but when every other thread is about exactly the same thing then it gets tedious.

If you have a burning desire to discuss something that has just been reported in the news, maybe just have a look first to see if it is already being discussed.

Sorry I thought the megxit one was another thread discussing the merits of them going or not! So I scrolled past...

My point is more, why every Brexit thread was zapped to another space, why not these?

I only opened it as it was in "site stuff" not AIBU, but yeah, it's easy to just decide to hide them all - even the ones with sneaky titles to trick us into thinking they are about something else
