And in what capacity? So it could be someone you just think seems really nice, and you could chat and have tea together. Or someone fun for drinks and going out. Somebody with whom you'd like to have a good debate and set the world to rights. A Mumsnetter you'd like to go shopping with, as you like the sound of their style. Or a wise, kindly soul whose advice you would unashamedly seek! An ideal dinner party guest, perhaps?
Looking forward to reading your replies (have name-changed though, as it just felt a bit awkward using my own!). I must confess to being shockingly unobservant when it comes to names on here, even if I have received some wonderful replies and perspectives over the years.

Let the unmumsnetty love commence! Grin

Where did she go?

Just vanished one day! Went from prolific to gone, just like that!

NoWordForFluffy · 16/02/2024 19:11

I've met loads of MNers for various reasons. There's a few more I'd like to meet though, as there's a little group of us who've posted together for years now, so a meet up would be nice!

BusySittingDown · 16/02/2024 19:18

I've been on MN about 17 years and don't really notice people's names anymore.

There used to be some people who had no lives really prolific posters that you would recognise but now there are so many different posters, it's hard to keep track.

People namechange far too often to be able to remember any special posters - and many people do namechange because they get targeted/trolled.

There used be a certain poster (I won't name her but it was last Spring it happened.) I used to enjoy reading her posts, but sadly, someone trolled her, and tried a GOTCHA on her. She had said (something like) she has lived in the current property she's in for 5 years, but in a thread from some months back she has said 10 years. Just like many others, she changed some facts and details about herself to avoid being recognised online.

After someone tried to make out she was a liar - which she wasn't - she said 'that's it! I have been posting under this name for a number of years, and now I am namechanging.' A few posters started pleading with her - and said she should not be driven away from posting under her current username, but she was badly stung, and hurt. She never returned under that name.

So she is here somewhere (probably) but I don't know where. I was sad to see her go.

There is no one particular poster now I can think of who springs to mind as someone I'd want to meet. No names pop up in my head.

I want to meet the Sistine chapel screamer 🤣

feelingalittlehorse · 16/02/2024 19:37

I’s like to meet up with Lougle- but for nefarious reasons. We both have almost identical pups (not really pups any more!), except hers is really well trained and sweet. Mine just walked over a mile carrying a macerated frog she found. Very proudly.

So I’d like to sneakily switch them 😬🤣

Well you know where to find her!

BarbieDangerous · 16/02/2024 19:39

NonPlayerCharacter · 16/02/2024 19:08

You don't say why...

Because she was a bloody nut and I’d love to try and understand her mindset😂

mrlistersgelfbride · 16/02/2024 19:43

Anyfucker, she sounded like a strong woman not to be messed with.
And Lottapianos, every time I read something from her she comes across very well and gives great advice.

I think I come across well on forums, I'm too non descript to be remembered on Mumsnet but I'm actually lovely IRL 😅

mrlistersgelfbride · 16/02/2024 19:43

*don't think I come across well!
See 🫣🤣

Aww thank you so much .💐

CuteCillian · 16/02/2024 19:52

I remember @notthefordtype, she had a fascinating view on the relationship topics having worked in the adult entertainment industry.
Often wonder where she is now.

spicedlemonpie · 16/02/2024 19:52
