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.

told you .
get down KM !

any way whats the point of a

bit of a private club

all or nothing i think

roof garden and penthouse at least

VVQ was very nice to me in a previous incarnation.

And she dodn't know me from diddly

Quit your jibber jabber and post

Dodn't

Didn't

Teach me to hit the vodka !

there is the private club, and then there is the VIP lounge within it. Only a select few make it past the bouncers.

OP (whatever your name is, I can't remember) if you really want to be noticed, why aren't you even posting on your own thread?

I think that you are being oversensitive. I don't know anyone in RL. I only reply if the topic interests me and people generally only notice me if they disagree! On the odd occasions that people mention that they agree with me I feel really good!

'Do you seriously think that an arbitary group of people secretly send messages telling hundreds of other women to ignore you because you may have offended someone?
'

Yes Paggy I do, I really do!!!!

But I didn't start this thread.
Bird - I think you have to start threads more, and also tell everyone what you need help with, then they feel you are a 'cause' and will remember you. Or tell you what to do. Or something...

I get recognised sometimes and other times I get glossed over on threads, I have days when I feel everyone is my mate and days when it's like I never existed.

I've only been here about a year and a half btw.

i dont know anyone in real life

cant imagine why

Btw posting a lot helps. I used to post all day every day and got kind of familiar.

Now I post less and don't know so much about what's going on with everyone. It's sad but I couldn't keep the pace! Have to devote the odd hour to the children.

well that was your first mistake

having children

honey we all get ignored. Why I've just started a thread about my complete and utter stupidness and only a few MNers have responded. Unless of course it is to protect me from their agreed thought that YES I am stupid! Sigh...

sadly most people realise too late that if only they hadnt had children they would have had more time to become mn superstars

It is an interest at the moment (where else do you get chance to give complete strangers your opinion!)and I have spare time. I expect to be busy from next month, and when I give it up people won't notice that I have gone! It doesn't bother me.

Mars

I left it on your phone.

Will email you.

Where are you posting?
Do you post much?

It's like anything, you get out what you put in.

yes cd is right

take my advice

i even have my own shout out thread as if by magic

but its not magic

tis hard work and training

I've been posting for around the same period.

I have had many run-ins with prolific posters, been angry, pissed off, and ignored but you can't take it too seriously, or personally, it is anonymous after all.
I don't see how you could be collectively ignored-you get the fawners who back up particular posters but it's not worth worrying about them
I think you are being a little paranoid

Ringing you, answer the phone you lazy mare.

I'm an erstwhile old timer but not so old as to be on eof the 'founding mothers' hehe

I am an old curmudgeon though - on here - and have learnt to embrace it..like I am wearing purple now - and rollers

Sorry, point being:

NO ONE shows me the respect I deserve!
