Netmums : let your fists do the talking

[bluewolf]

I'm suggesting an open air open combat get together with Netmutmums, sparked by a thread about a perfectly good pushchair sold by a fine upstanding mn to a low and abbhorant nm. If this doesn't mean war, what does? Locations, costumes and rules welcome..

have you not seen the fights?

They come over here, we go over there, there is much bitching and swopping of insults and then it all dies down again.

Usually starts when we do a thread taking the piss out of tickers.

Was "netmutmums" a Freudian typo or is this a common term of endearment which has hitherto escaped my notice?

ah, but those threads on tickers are priceless

and someone who uses both (or at least claims to) will have a good old flounce.

There will be loads shouting 'leave it, they ain't worf it'

It's great - can sometimes spin out to a week;s worth of entertainment.

Go on - start one.

whats a ticker?

It's those bright-colored, flashing little calendars at the end of each post that go:

2 years 3 months 1 week 3 days since I last had a meaningful thought

2 minutes 1 second since I last called a stranger 'hun'

That kind of thing

this is the classic ticker thread

tickers

Starting wars with other parenting sites is generally Frowned Upon in these ere parts.

I'm not exactly sure about this ticker thing. So if I say I DUN A WANK and use some brackets is that it?
taliac although I am proposing a war I am not actually starting one. but it would be cool

Now, I've never been on NetMums but on that lik it sounds like lots of people are very familiar with the format....

Oh, I love the tickers threads. Tbere hasn't been one for way too long.

on that link

I dare one of you to go over and say "You're tickers are crap"

{{eggingon emoticon]]

dont' like tickers, ahve no probs with any other forums apart from bounty - didn't like it. d how rude

but what I wanna know is more on this pushchair - why didn't a MN'etter have it? should we not let the 2 posters sort it out their selves thou?

This is my favourite one.
Thanks for the reminder they exist.

Hi everyone ((((((Hugs))))))I'm a newbie.

well up for being egged but how would I go about this quest? Not having a fucking CLUE about FUCKING TICKERS

just rread thru that whole tickers thread just finished pmsl at some of the comments!!

i wqs on netmumw last night and it was c''p!

lol,

fight fight fight!

10.2 seconds since I last encouraged someone to fight. Yay!

I just asked them why they have tickers.

Oooohhh I'm not going over there - there is one scary woman who gets very territorial over the nappy topic!

IT IS SIX MINUTES 54 SECONDS SINCE I LAST KILLED A THREAD

They are parents just like us. They like their forum, as we like ours. They like tickers we dont. Why is this so hard to respect and accept?

lol noooo, are they being all understanding about you being such a meanie!

In fact, some of them don't like tickers bacause it slows everything up.

make sure you provide a link if you do start a fight.

i didnt realise the original ticker thread had grown.better have a wee before i read it again.
