AIBU to think MNHQ is technically wrong?

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

If the word is Mumsnet, and then surely the place should be MHQ and the proles should actually be Mers or Metters?

I know it doesn't flow as well, but, hey, accuracy is improtant isn't it?

Hmm, will try that.
Could be fun, especially if it requires a mere yes or no answer.
If I get lynched because the OP has revealed a tragic backstory then I shall merely blame you or claim that RebeccaMumsnet has hacked my account and posting as me. Actually, that could work!

:o

Best to keep it to "lighthearted" sections... it's not a game to play in the Pregnancy section.

Really? Oh shit!

Haha

hi there
Shall we move this thread to Pedants' Corner?
Thanks

Noep.

No-one is talking about pedanticism, just picking on me.

Tell them off, mom.

Tell who off?

Actually chaos, if you look at the big logo, it's mumsnet not Mumsnet, so should we be mers?

I did ponder that debka, but when MNHQ themselves write they use one capital. So, ner.

Em, Trills, howabout Thumby, Rhubs, LilacWalts, and now debka?

[joshes]

But they write MNHQ and MN Towers as well

But those are diminutives.

Working from the big long word, there's only one word, one capital.

So therefore...

And they're wring, imho.

Oh fruff.

wrong.

Hello losing battle, it's nice to see you again.

If it's Mumsnet you can't call Rebecca Mom - it must be Mum

I'm very tired and very drunk. So all I'll say is:

Neener Neener re: Americans and the serial, comma, okay?

And it should be People of Mumsnet. ::gavel::

am easily confused tonight (unusual)
so who are we?mners or mers-quite like to be a mer
where are we?

But it's Mums Net innit Chaos?

You can't have finger space in urls

It was Olivia you doily.

I like Oxford commas.

finger space Valp?

Have you been helping young DC with their writing?

It's mums net surely. Which over time has morphed into one word and I expect to see it in the next OED.

MNHQ retained their use of the two word format and because it's an acronym, they capitalise so it becomes Mums Net.

Were my commas right Jux? were they? were they?

excuse me but headquarters is a single word too so MNHQ should actually be MH by extension.

I like Oxford commas too

Just noticed mumsnet is a small m
