MamsNot : The point ?

I suspect most of MumsNet could devour any or all of us,

Yes please.

[NotAllThere]

Hmm, 15 minutes. I expected quicker.

When that guise is for the purposes of "entertainment" at other's expense, then I feel that it is dangerously close to bullying.

Bullying it isn't - the cukkers in disguise got a fair verbal beating yesterday.

I see nothing wrong in the creation of some satire and parody as an intellectual exercise.

Going over there and posting rubbish to ruin their forum would be crass and indefensible.

Going over there and posting cartoon versions of themselves that they think are real is fine in my book to see if we are up to the challenge and there seems to be a long tradition of it on the internet and before.

This.

If we don't challenge unpalatable views (and some of mumsnet is quite unpalatable) we end up with a pretty crappy situation.

I suspect most of MumsNet could devour any or all of us, without even spitting out the bones.

Quite true. Think of it as the online equivalent of goading a pride of lions with a short stick.

I'm not there to attack anyone, except maybe the other CUK members to confuse the regulars. I like the idea of CUK members having a series of terrible fights over there.

That's what I liked the idea of.

[Sockpuppet]

There is no point.

I don't suppose most of you get the term parody do you.
