Following on from another thread in the lounge, how many PHers have registered with Mumsnet 'just for a laugh'?
I'll admit it , I've done it. Have you?
ps my Mumsnet username contains the capital letters 'PH' in the middle so you might be able to spot me if you lurk in the same areas.

Ah yes well there was an incident a number of years ago where a number of PH'ers caused havoc over there (I wasn't involved whistle )
Mumsnet owners/Admin/EvilWomen found out it was Pistonheads and complained to PH giving Garlick a good ear bashing to which PH towers folded like a napkin.

Ever since then we tread not in the forbidden country.

I'm not sure why everybody cowers in fear at the blob monsters over on mumsnet. The lot over at OcUK used to get really tetchy about screwing with them as well.

Surprisingly (or perhaps not) they have clout with the media and people in power, I can imagine the headlines now "Advice website for lovely fluffy mums trolled by evil boy racers from pistonheads".
You know what women can get like when they want a whinge, turn a mole hill into a mountain quickly if you get me.

I was tempted a while back, to re-post a thread I did on here (under a crafty pseudonym) to see what the female viewpoint would be. Bottled it when I found out Mumsnet has got Haymarket by the balls.

Mumsnet often appears to me to be more or less the equal to the NP&E section of PHs.

It's the News, Politics & Economics forum, where some quite trenchant views are aired & shared. It's the successor to the NSDAP.Possibly.

I use my wifes login. Don't cause too much trouble though; mostly used it to research potential baby names when wifey was pregnant. Took a while to work out wtf they were talking about though with their dh, dd, ds bullst.

I joined (and was open about the fact that I was a bloke) when me and the missus were struggling to get up the duff and wanted a bit of anonymous female advice but that was it.

They were useless at telling me how to unseize the front calipers on a '98 Kawasaki ZX7-R though, so I jumped ship after that.

I go over for a look sometimes just for amusement.

Last time I gingerly opened the door of a thread it read like this....

read.....

"DH took pictures of my tits whilst I was asleep and whacked off over them"

shout Bovine Mass of Hysteria "He isn't a DH, he's a RAPIST. You need to contact your lawyer and LEAVE HIM TODAY"

.... I closed door quietly and went on my way.

Not I, the only time I have seen any of the content is when someone has posted a link on here and I had a browse, most of it seems reasonable enough, some of it is quite appalling however, but every forum has its dingleberries.
