My Thread Was Deleted?
Hi, I posted a thread earlier in the correct place, it was a referrals website, so I placed it in the referrals board. I followed the rules and stated what I would received if someone were to sign up. But it was deleted? Any help would be great! Thanks Chris

Please Ban The Word 'Fanboy'
I have only been reading the Phones board for a month or so, and I am already bored with the peurile slanging matches that any thread on the iPhone descend into. I'm not personally offended by the word 'fanboy' but by the way it is used - to put down or deliberately provoke of the other poster. Otherwise interesting…

Stroppy about Moaning!!
Hi all, I have just read a few threads, and this is probably not the correct place to say it, but I have seen so many threads where people are moaning about information re groceries, and putting others down regarding helpful hints etc! I for one have been haunting here for ages and all information is helpful on a kinda…

Hi all We've just lauched a new petition with Mumsnet to ask the new PM, who ever that is, to ensure financial education is made compulsory as soon as possible (after it was scrapped a few weeks ago, see MSE News story).

New Article Idea: Home Phone/Internet for those renting/needing line activation.
And for those not in a cable area the only option for fixed landline and internet may mean getting a 'BT' line activated. This can be expensive and for those renting may not be cost effective. I'd like to see a guide/table that includes the following information: * List of providers that will activate a landline * For each…

Threads I really don't want to read...
...are those which present you with a huge mass of wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling text when you click on them. They feature no paragraph breaks, and are also often half-filled with irrelevant personal (and boring) information. To give you an example - "Hello, everyone. This is the first time I've posted to this board…

Volcanic ash problems
Just wondering if its worth having a temporary forum/subforum for all those threads about the volcanic ash disruption? Just until everything is back to normal?

Expand the "Thanks" system?
I propose that the MSE forums should bring in a reputation points system or a "thumbs up/thumbs down" as used on other forums to replace the "thanks" button. It's all very lovely being able to thank people for good advice, but there are also a lot of posts on here giving unhelpful, misinformed and purely incorrect advice.…

Site and IE8
Not sure if its just me, but for the last couple of days the top section in IE8 is all wrong and doesnt display properly, adding the site to the IE8 compatability list and it again displays properly. Its the top section with the 'Home', 'card loans', 'Reclaim 1'000s' etc that seems to be the problem, its just displays as a…

New idea ... one for MSE?

I have a number of passwords for different websites and if I could just remember the criteria for the password creation I would be able to remember what my password is. I'llk try and explain https://www.madeupwebsite.com says you need a…

new sticky on the Debate HP & Enoconomy Board?
I hope this is in the right place. :) The debate board has a mixture of posters: many of who have studied economics, or work in roles in finance or similar, and a lot of enthusiastic amateurs, and some passing interest. For those of us who have never studied economics sometimes the terms can be confusing, especially when…

Default thread subscription
For Heaven's sake can we go back to subscribing to threads by default. Newbies are posting on the forums and then are not heard from again. It is probable that they don't know they have had a response nor even where to find it. The rest of us, who try to help, are, therefore, just wasting our time and I'm getting heartily…
