<Ahem> So would you use a WWYD topic?

I thought it might take some of the heat out of AIBU

that way people posting on AIBU would be choosing the more "robust" style of response

and WWYD would be a bit more neutral....

the old "MN Jury" idea fulfils two different briefs IMO - might be good to separate them

Yay or nay?

TBH, I think we run the risk of there being too many topics and many more threads going unanswered.

JustineMumsnet · 07/05/2009 16:23

Well we're happy to give it a go and see how it goes... does that sound like a plan?

alphamummy · 07/05/2009 16:26

Yep give it a go i'll use it, aibu is far to scary and gets peoples backs up straight away! Thanks mn whens the launch?

MerlinsBeard · 07/05/2009 16:31

Is this instead of another topic?

JustineMumsnet · 07/05/2009 16:33

No not instead of, additional. We're happy to give it a try and see if it is popular, if not - we can remove...

MerlinsBeard · 07/05/2009 16:36

chat will slowly disappear and be replaced with a "whats for breakfast/lunch/tea" topic and a "tearoom/bar/scuttlebug" section etc

Can't believe that this has a yes when bringing back feeling depressed was given a no...oh well....

ShannaraTiger · 07/05/2009 16:38

Yes

IWantedThatName · 07/05/2009 16:38

Actually I think it would be the ideal partener to AIBU. If we have AIBU why can't we have WWYD.

I very frequently feel like I want to post in such a topic but can't.

EachPeachPearMum · 07/05/2009 21:04

WWMND?
I would use it.. I always have decisions I can't make agonise over...

BecauseImWorthIt · 07/05/2009 21:09

Well I already have a burning issue I'd like to post on WWYD ...

thisisyesterday · 07/05/2009 21:10

no i think we need far LESS topics! there are bloody hundreds of them and so many overlap.

I say, complete overhaul. get rid of lots (inc AIBU)

squeaver · 07/05/2009 21:11

Yes do it.

theyoungvisiter · 07/05/2009 21:13

yes - good idea - would be a better place for some of the AIBU threads

LadyOfWaffle · 07/05/2009 21:14

Yep!

tinylittlekittens · 07/05/2009 21:39

Can you make it "What would Chuck Norris do?"?

Hassled · 07/05/2009 21:42

What would CJ Cregg do? That's usually my yardstick (moving as I do in the sphere of American politics ).

GeraldineMumsnet · 08/05/2009 13:16

Ta-da. New topic here

BecauseImWorthIt · 08/05/2009 14:08

Damn. I've forgotten what I wanted to post now!
