how unpopular have you made yourself on a thread?

[pollypeachum]

well i've managed to offend at least two people and am now being ridiculed on a thread! i've only been doing this for a few days. is this a record?

Oh, fennel, you've rumbled me

I'm a relative newbie too - but have been posting long enough to start to realise that there are definite factions on here.

Probably means that someone is bound to be offended by anything you post!

My first posting was about not being told about the arrival of my niece by in-laws. Got completely slated on the thread - not one person on my side. But in RL, people who are aware of the family dynamics were 100% behind me...weird, but there you go!

Well, you can't run a vipers' pit without vipers, that's what I say

Oh well...I know I can be rather unpopular, and sometimes it's getting to me more then others, lol...but...well...if I believe in something then I try to convince others....lol...{blush) , but, heh, I am also willing to learn new stuff and consider new evidence and admit I was wrong, or say sorry if I feel I have gone to far...as usually I know I don't go out to offend, but the moment just takes me...and well, things can be said that one might regrett...I suppose I am human, if not always considerate....

3nomore I regonise your name!!!

And I like you!!!!

is this really a viper pit? Could I be so lucky?? Anyway, thought I'd explain my v inexperienced take on the site.. I read interesting sounding threads, I form instant opinion and succint[ish] winning argument, I post, I search for new thread. Are you supposed to go back and discover that your word wasn't the last???
Say it ain't so.

LOL Vipersister - I once told dh proudly I had 'won an argument' on Mumsnet and then I went back and looked a day or so later and found there was one more post - somebody had simply typed,
'PMSL'.
Couldn't think of an answer to that

I'm such a coward - I sometimes get all arsey about something and type a reply but never post it.
Could have made myself very unpopular if anyone had followed my advice to put WD40 on their piles on a thread the other day. It still makes me come over all hot! (I meant Preperation H, I have no idea!)

Oh, I forgot - the other one where I made myself really unpopular was the PFA/PTA clique thread. Several narked people telling me the way to change this was to get involved.

Peregrine...were we on the same side...lol ;)

i like 3andnomore...i mentioned her on the say something nice about a mnetter thread.....she is ace! and backed me up and a few 'controversial' childbirth threads!!

aww...ty Lulamamafeeling is mutual btw...never thought of looking in that thread, as I thought that probably noone would say anything about me anyway, because I am still sort of new and am well..just me, lol!

lol at vipersister! The trouble is that you do see things people have posted in reply if you ever search on 'threads I'm on' for updates.
