rather than virtual friends?
How long do you have to be on MN to be a "friend"? Do you all know each other really? Does it matter to you? Does it make you not post on some threads as you feel you are gate crashing a clique? Does me.

Another way to make yourself memorable, have a user name that makes other MNetters drool and head for the fridge

I hate to admit that I rarely eat chocolate.

I wanted Toblerone as a MN name but it was taken. Just as well.

To be honest, I prefer salty stuff to sweets. I should really be called MmeGruyere.

scottishmummy · 21/09/2009 20:05

or MmeTunnockWafer

Morgansmummy08
Welcome to MN. There is no right and wrong way of MNetting, just dive right in.

DoNotPressTheRedButton · 21/09/2009 20:16

I think you have to just smash in and go fdor it

I'm very much an oldie but regualrly change my name to protect my identity, and I ahven't noticed many issues tbh (doesdepend on your name though- some work some dont, no idea why)

But just occasionally even after 27 years (or feels like).... there is a set quiche thang going on- so I just go.

Sorry if ilegeible, am combining typing with BF after wine!

scottishmummy · 21/09/2009 20:17

Morgansmummy08,dive in- mn how you want to.whatever suits
