The threads on AIBU are often only loosely related to the board’s stated topic, which I think is generally a good thing - but I feel that it would help to keep the topic a bit more engaging if Mumsnet could move posts which are just asking for help using online services (especially Vinted, eBay, etc.) to a more suitable board.
There’s a regular stream of questions like “How do I access my Vinted account balance?”, “Can I get a refund for this item from eBay?”, “How do I contact a real person about this Amazon order?”, “Why have Facebook locked my account?”, “What’s this new icon in my Vinted profile?” They’re totally off-topic for AIBU.
I read AIBU for the moral/social dilemmas and interpersonal dramas, not for people’s technical questions! And often you can’t tell that it’s going to be a technical question until you open it and skim-read it.
Before you ask, I do indeed have more important things to worry about 😁I just think this would improve AIBU a bit. (And while we’re at it, so would banning any comment with “if the genders were reversed” in it!)
