Many of you will know I was on earlier and we all got a bit worked up.......but I like to think it was quite fun.

They're not taking it with the same good humour on netmums!!

I actually know one woman who goes on NM.

She's a fruit shoot giving, smoking, tattood, loony. But I like her and she's a good mother. She says she's met some lovely people on NM, I think it's a bit softer.

Oh no, it?s got nothing to do with whether you are well-off or not or whatever. I said you were a snob because in your other thread you said you were shocked at a mum?s neglectful behaviour particularly because she had a 4x4 and was therefore middle class. So you make assumptions about how good a mother someone is by their car or what social class they belong to.

And as for the netmums thread, well I?m not a fan of NM and hate all the fluffy ?hun? stuff. But you seem to be criticising the other mothers on there for not having as much money as you do, and for supposedly forcing their children into work so that they can take all their money off them and rob them of any chance of a university degree?? Which of course nice, superior, middle class children all have. Then you take piss out of them on here. I don?t get the joke??

Maybe I am coming across as being harsh and I know I shouldn?t have said you were a ?terrible snob? as it?s a personal remark. So, what I meant to say is that imo your attitude is ?terribly snobbish? because it seems that you believe that being middle class, having more money or a 4x4 makes you a superior human being!

agree with soupdragon, this kind of behaviour is pathetic.

chegirl · 03/07/2009 23:36

Who did that?

SoupDragon · 03/07/2009 23:38

"She's just trying to stamp her mark"

Bollocks. She's trolling.

2shoes · 03/07/2009 23:40

I detest all this them and us type crap
different strokes for different folks.

skybright · 03/07/2009 23:47

I think a fair few folk use both sites. You come across as a complete snob TBH.

pickyvic · 04/07/2009 00:08

i dont use NM but i do still go on RK...not as often as on here mind you - i quite like the honesty on here though it can sometimes be a bit brutal!

RK is quite soft and fluffy though heavily modded, sounds quite similar to NM!

did someone say this site was modded? cos ive not seen any modding going on?

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 04/07/2009 00:09

Trip Trap Trip Trap....

I'm the big Billy Goat Gruff travelled from nm to butt the troll off the bridge...

MangoJuggler · 04/07/2009 00:19
