What's the point in coming on to a forum for advice when you are just going to be picked on... I think mumsnet is just full of bitter, bigotted schoolyard bullies with nothing better than to make other parents feel bad!

It's bloody difficult to ostracise people on here when there are 10s of thousands of posters who do not (surprise surprise) all agree. When you are trying to ignore someone on a thread because they've been trolling it for ages someone who doesn't know the background will always pop up and engage, and then if you explain the background and why you are not responding to that poster, another bunch of people will pop up and be nice to the troll because they think ostracising people is mean Grin
If anyone really thinks the whole of Mumsnet is ostracising them they are either delusional or a bit lacking in persistence.

It's interesting that parsnip is promoting a product that she claims to have never have heard of on another thread (she just popped up on it as if by magic when extremum was spamming her wares).
I don't normally do the troll-hunt thing but this is a total troll.

kenobi · 12/07/2011 14:49

Sybil, well, quite.

We could ostracize each other by agreement? I think that's the only way. this is a pic of me ostrich sizing you

CrapolaDeVille · 12/07/2011 14:50

Come on PAg...any decent mother ignores her DCs to MN, that's where you're going wrong. Ignoring them whilst at school is neglect.

Empusa · 12/07/2011 14:50

Possibly because you are the most blatant spammer ever seen! One minute you are saying,"oh wow, what an exciting new product that I've never heard of" and the next you are posting on another thread to say how great it is. Not exactly subtle.

IroningBoardForSurfBoard · 12/07/2011 14:50

oh i realise that, Joyful, i thought it was a bit rude, that's all

that Hmm wasn't aimed at you OP, this is for you Hmm

Pagwatch · 12/07/2011 14:51

Dammit. I will try harder crappola.
I thought it was just about putting the hours in, not ensuring that you are ignoring the dc.
Amature error

Thank you Sybil, I do my best. I've been ostrich sizing people for years.

Pagwatch YummyHoney posts a fair bit herself, how are we to interpret that? Confused
