Apparantly due to pressure from mumsnetters (there are threads on this) it has been proposed to remove the Boden Lady and charge mumsnet members a monthly fee (amount tbc) to make up for the lost revenue.

As we live in a democracy please post your view:
either yes remove Boden Lady and charge a fee or no don't remove Bonden Lady.

At the moment the Boden Lady can be seen on the right on the active conversations page.

I propose a sliding scale of charges for using MN - maybe per post, or per word? Then the most verbose and prolific Mners pay more, which is fair. And there should be fines for text speak and posting about things like baby pasta.

50p flat rate for emoticons.

harpsichordcarrier · 01/04/2006 09:22

actually you should be charged less the more you post
to recognise your contributions

big fines for lurkers
that'll learn

SorenLorensen · 01/04/2006 09:23

Depends on the quality of your contributions...

Agree with big fines for lurkers though.

SorenLorensen · 01/04/2006 09:24

(I've just noticed there is a thread on baby pasta today Grin)

LadySherlockofLGJ · 01/04/2006 09:25

Even larger fines for people who use the board merely for the purpose of selling goods.

harpsichordcarrier · 01/04/2006 09:26

Shock quality of posts
you mean fines for talking crap?
eeek
could get expensive....

SorenLorensen · 01/04/2006 09:27

I'd have to leave if they started charging for ellipses...

harpsichordcarrier · 01/04/2006 09:33

SorenLorensen · 01/04/2006 09:36

Yeah - and three strikes and you're out.

Put her next to a spaghetti tree :o

Socci · 01/04/2006 10:38

what?? Some people clearly need to get out more if they are prepared to pay not to see an advert.

So my view is no - don't remove the boden lady (I had never even noticed her before!)
