Why have you made a thread on which *some* people have made some fairly nasty sweeping judgey statements Discussion of the Day?

Not all of the thread is offensive and I'm sure it was started in good faith with a light-hearted agenda.

Tbh, I'd just given it a wide berth, because it was obvious it would end in a bunfight.

I haven't RTwholeFT, but a quick glance suggests there are some pretty unpleasant views there. Did you really want to be promote this type of discussion?

Is it the Britpop one? Because I will not have a word said against Jarvis!

Op; have you got nothing better to do than hassle HQ with this?

Maybe, just maybe, they've got better things to worry about at the moment - you know, like a major security alert.
& although I only read the first post on the thread concerned, 'judging' is, in itself, a bit ....eh, judgy, & I'm sure for the most part it was lighthearted.

Some people will seriously moan about anything. Consider yourself judged.

Which thread? Can't see DOTD on my phone.

It's this one iK8: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/2053750-What-is-the-absolute-ultimate-thing-you-get-judgy-about?msgid=46448473
Jarvis is safe. (for now)

And yes shakethetree, it does bother me. Maybe MNHQ are busy and haven't noticed that some posters are most definitely not lighthearted. I'm not being sanctimonious - I have the odd quiet judge myself. I just don't feel it is helpful to promote a thread where a few cunts have poured vitriol all over it.

I know I posted on it, I said I hadn't read the entire thread. & as the thread has over 900 posts on it quite a few other people posted on it too - probably why it's discussion of the day.

Hi all,

Thanks for flagging this. We've decided to replace the DOD. We must warn you though, read the new thread at your peril. You'll lose hours of your life engrossed in it.

Thanks CreAmy Flowers
