AIBU to ask if you have a mumsnet twin

[Dontbeconspicuous]

I’ve noticed that there’s one particular poster who almost always likes or agrees with my posts on a thread.

I use a few different usernames and post on threads about a variety of topics - politics, bad husbands, hen do dramas, inheritance, general life issues and all sorts of random things. I just notice this same username popping up all the time (there’s a second who I notice agrees with me very regularly, too).

Clearly we’re very similar and think the same way about a lot of different things. Just wondered if others have noticed the same.

YABU- I’ve never noticed a particular person always agreeing with me.

YANBU - happens to me too.

This is turning into a 'who is your favourite Munsnetter' thread. How very retro.

It doesn’t necessarily mean the thread’s AI generated though.

When people sign up Mumsnet automatically suggests a user name for them in that three-word format. So people who are newly signed up and can’t think of a user name (or whose user name of choice is already taken by someone else) often have those names.

I have a Reddit user name like that.

Some might be AI bots but lots won’t be.

Oh god I feel 🫣 about that one too. Triggerhappy with the like buttons and very leaky with the overshares. Shuffle of shame

An acquaintance in real life showed me screenshots of Mumsnet posts of a mutual neighbour, and her sister in law. It felt very intrusive.

After that, I started changing usernames regularly.

I’m the same, I don’t really take in the usernames unless someone says “love your username btw” then I have a look. There’s one name I’ve noticed seeing on various threads but I can’t remember anything they’ve posted before when I see it.
