where have you been???!!!!

you can switch it back y'know (click on th elink at the top that says customise and clik onMN classic)

kinderBOOsurprise · 30/10/2007 20:42

have you been away for a few days then?

BeetrootMNRoyalty · 30/10/2007 20:42

I am with you Moondog - I don't want choices I just want it to go back tot he way it was - about 4 years ago

Saturn74 · 30/10/2007 20:43

change can be very scary.
click the 'oldies can't cope with change' button.
it'll be OK.

Whizzz · 30/10/2007 20:43

I thought that when I came back from my hols (honestly, you go away for a week & everything changes !) but it really isn't that scary. I've customised & got rid of all the thread topics I never read - which is great !

moondog · 30/10/2007 20:44

I can't!
My brain is about to explode.
I deal with three fucking email thingies a day (work,uni and home) I have a complete information overload in every bollocking aspect of my miserable life and now they do this to me.

Aaarghhhh!!

(Did your ds have a good b'day Soph? CD and I enjoyed a v successful houseswap although she found my secret Pot Noodle stash.)

Yes, but customising it to be Classic feels all retrograde and uptight and things that people like Beetroot and Moondog and I would hate to think of ourselves as being, innit. It makes us sound as if we dress in sensible Country Casuals and drink sherry.

Want it BAAAACCCCCKKK!!!

moondog · 30/10/2007 20:45

Quite

Snout out I say.

paulaplumpbottom · 30/10/2007 20:45

I don't like it

DumbledoresGirl · 30/10/2007 20:45

Moondog, this has been done about 5 million times already (and the changes only occurred last week). Click classic mumsnet and remind yourself not to work so hard in future so you can complain alongside everyone else next time.

motherinferior · 30/10/2007 20:46

If they rename it Mumsnet Retro that would be OK. Or Mumsnet Post-modern.

motherinferior · 30/10/2007 20:47

Mumsnet Authentic.

moondog · 30/10/2007 20:48

Have pissed about with it and looks a leetle better.

Still,beside the point.
Too much choice is not liberating.
Why don't people get that?
Reminds me of the time I bought a tumble dryer (gripping stuff) and I waved aside the assistant with her guff about 'holding anti crease and static delayed cycles' and said (laconic Jewish momma style)
'Listen lady,I want two buttons. On/Off and Hot/Not so hot. Goddit???'

She seemed oddly relieved.

oh MI - I am so glad you said that. I am all confused now. I AM TRENDY and with it but I don't want the new MN but I don't want NOT to choose it

Soph - your birthday? when when?

Moondog - are you coming to christmas gang bang/

paulaplumpbottom · 30/10/2007 20:49

Vintage Mumsnet

CarGirl · 30/10/2007 20:49

Language!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

morningpaper · 30/10/2007 20:49

I know what you mean MI

I have put mine "back" to the old style

I feel like I'm watching in black and white though

Yes! Vintage. Exactly. I want to feel cutting-edge and all (har har har) not timidly retreating back to the safe zone.

paulaplumpbottom · 30/10/2007 20:53

Calling it Mumsnet Classic reminds me of Coke's blunder

unknownrebelbang · 30/10/2007 20:53

rofl at Moondog's pot noodle stash!
