Honestly, these threads are really really starting to do my head in.

Can you imagine what it's going to be like round here come October 20th?

bigchris · 06/10/2010 11:29

Can't people just post in in the news and politics and then those topics could be hidden

it's bad enough all the doom and gloom on the telly, in the papers, at work ( being made redundant Sad) and now on here as well
we're all going to be skint guys so stop yer moaning Grin

TrillianAstra · 06/10/2010 11:31

Please please make it go away. Or make everyone go in one thread and stop starting new ones?

2shoes · 06/10/2010 11:33

please do have one, and move all the crap in ther
it seems like everyone wants their won thread,s o they are taking mn over

ShirleyKnot · 06/10/2010 11:33

arf @ trillian.

They seem to be having a conversation by starting new threads in response to ones that already exist.

NEEDY AND ATTENTION SEEKERY

TrillianAstra · 06/10/2010 11:38

Odds on this turning into a discussion of the changes in benefits rather than the need for a Benefits topic?

ShirleyKnot · 06/10/2010 11:43

I think they should cut benefits for dead people.

2shoes · 06/10/2010 11:46

PLEASE PLEASE DO SOMETHING
it is getting daft, people just won't stick to one or 2 threads, it is taking mn over

nymphadora · 06/10/2010 11:47

Give me the power to move all the threads. I'm bored today and have blocked 2/3 of active convos

ShirleyKnot · 06/10/2010 11:50

Out of the top 10 threads in AIBU at the moment 5 of them are banging on about sodding benefits.

AMumInScotland · 06/10/2010 11:53

Please yes - MNHQ have done it before! Limit it to one thread, and kill dissuade anyone who tries to start a new one.

TrillianAstra · 06/10/2010 11:54

They are multiplyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyying

and now they don't even say in the title that they are CB threads

OliviaMumsnet · 06/10/2010 11:54

Erm
I dunno is the honest answer to this one.
Let me find out and sorry tis annoying you.

nymphadora · 06/10/2010 11:58

Can we also stop people posting in primary/secondary about specific schools/areas and make them use local. I've hid loads of them today too .

ShirleyKnot · 06/10/2010 12:00

Also can we stop people just generally being arseholes?

TIA

RubberDuck · 06/10/2010 12:41
