to think this mumsnet thing is a bit of a private club!!!

[birdinatent]

I have been posting on here for a year or so on and off, but I have never really felt welcome.

No one ever responds to what I write, in fact I have sometimes felt actively ignored.

Now obviously that could be cos I write a load of crap that interests no one

Or it could be that very early on, before I realised how careful you had to be, I had an argument with someone who, it turned out, was a mumsnet superstar.

Am I being paranoid, or do people get unofficialy blacklisted!!

btw have changed my name for this.

I think this place is going to suit me down to the ground

I am off for a wander

I hope I'm one of said superstars zippididodah or I'm never baking you an LDC again!

you follow my advice and you cant go far wrong

so

so er just npost more or less but more in a confined space

maybe you are just boring and uninteresting - like others have said they have been made welcome.

who gives a shit who you argue with - argue with superstars - stand your ground

HAr har SPB

And welcome newbies

[refrains from giving Mummyfor3 a good talking-to about having a Mummy-type name]

these threads amaze me
if you tried a new toddler group or something and found you didn't really click with the other people there, would you stand up in the middle of the session and start complaining that everyone was ignoring you?

OP let's have your real posting name so that we can judge for ourselves, please

lol

You are being overly paranoid.

No one even remembers who they've had disagreements or fallouts with a few weeks ago lewt alone months ago.

Chill. Join in. Post a lot.

I do remember one poster

[folds arms]

I am always really realistic about MN and how you mustn't take things personally, and it is a big place and their are no cliques etc.

And then whenever there is a 'fav MNer/funniest mner/mners you like in real life/fav nickname/wankiest mner/mners you would kill given a chance/mners you have shagged/mners who know squit' thread it becomes apparent that I have not registered on anyones radar and no one has a clue who I am.
At that point I take to my bed with gin and sob.

actually, F&Z makes a very good point. It is a bit of a bizarre thread (and they crop up regularly)

Maybe custy is right. A lot of people post on MN. If you're not very interesting, you will be overlooked (although not deliberately)

boys
is it me?
me me me me me me ?

oh.
thought not.

Pagwatch you are on my radar

pagwatch - If I was to vote, I would vote for you and you would come under the "mner with the most gorgeous children"

Do what I do, post irrelevent shite on most topics and keep asking dumb-assed questions. People will soon know you then

Mind you, no one knows me

I don't know who any of you are.

I was going to rename myself threadkiller on account of the tumbleweed blowing around my posts. When I've actually asked a question and started a thread, I have had a good response-and so have you!

I want to know which it-mummy you argued with.

Please tell

ooeeerr
my obvious and pathetic attempt to gain attention worked

Off to celebrate - with gin

I am sure I read one of your threads yesterday Eyeballs.

or maybe you were just on a thread?

I can only recognise three posters at a time.
My brain just melds the rest of you into one huge fog of hormones on the outskirts of my peripheral vision.
