Or do some posters only seem to congregate on this part of the board to express plain nasty and pure unadulterated venom at those who dare to post anything they dont agree with? Then use 'well you DID ask...' as the justification for their acting like a pack of dogs?

Block AIBU then. Your problem solved.

RockRose · 14/06/2010 19:29

name and shame please or at least linkys to said threads

GypsyMoth · 14/06/2010 19:30

tis me!!!

bibbitybobbityhat · 14/06/2010 19:33

Well, your argument is only valid if it is always the same posters congregating to express plain nasty and pure unadulterated venom. I can't be certain, but I tend to think most IABU threads attract some posters who do think the op is BU and so post accordingly, but afaik there isn't a hardcore group who do it all the time whatever or whomever the op.

Someone is bound to disagree with almost anything posted in AIBU so a thread full of completely YANBU responses is a rare thing indeed.

everydayislikeSunday · 14/06/2010 19:35

whether the same people do it all the time or not how the hell does someone posting in this part of the forum mean its acceptable for them to be called numpties, morons, twats etc?

FabIsGettingFit · 14/06/2010 19:36

YABU.

You have a problem you take it up with the poster on the thread.

GypsyMoth · 14/06/2010 19:36

she is prob the op namechanged or something

catinthehat2 · 14/06/2010 19:37

for Rockrose

But mind you go and have a wee first, it gets really funny towards the end.

CantSupinate · 14/06/2010 19:39

It's nasty when people get ganged up on... although I am guilty of doing it, too [anti smug emoticon ].

catinthehat2 · 14/06/2010 19:39

I have made the most monstrously hot chilli by accident because I was laughing about the other thread and not concentrating on cooking

GypsyMoth · 14/06/2010 19:40

well its about me....but majority of posters had same opinion....

LadyBiscuit · 14/06/2010 19:41

ooh catinthehat - can I come round? I love monstrously hot chilli

everydayislikeSunday · 14/06/2010 19:41

Why if someone else states people act like total cows they MUST be someone else who just happens to think the same? I dont like plain and simple bullying being dressed up as 'saying it like it is' and people being applauded for it.

OP posts:
catinthehat2 · 14/06/2010 19:42

Actually the OP is not bad, got

venom

nasty

pack of dogs

and bonus points for "numpties, morons, twats"

I'm doing really well with RoughTalkin'Ladies Bingo tomight

everydayislikeSunday · 14/06/2010 19:44

I think if any ladies are rough its the ones who congregate on threads with a little bit of aggro- damping their tena ladies with the excitement of piling in and 'telling it like it is'

OOh yes, onto line 3 now. THis is tremendous stuff!

catinthehat2 · 14/06/2010 19:48

Gosh. I don't know how you re keeping up +3 personae and 2 threads at the same time.

HAts off to you and your amphetamine supplier!

tethersend · 14/06/2010 19:49

Even as everydayislikeSunday, she made a comment to a poster encouraging her to get more babyfathers or somesuch.

But obviously only because she was so distressed by the personal comments, you understand

usualsuspect · 14/06/2010 19:49

The quickest name changing I've ever seen
