Imo, there’s no need for these threads at all, particularly in aibu, and they are “not in the spirit” of MN

Threads that result in mockery of homes on rightmove, zoopla, etc.

fully support this.
the easy thing would be to say, well it's the internet and it happens, but surely if MNHQ want to differentiate themselves from a general social media free-for-all then this sort of thing shouldn't be allowed.
it's actually quite nasty and bullying behaviour - and cowardly as there is no chance of the victim really responding to a pile on by strangers.

These threads are no different to pointing and laughing at the mentally ill and the elderly.
And all the threads on here saying wear what you want - interior decor is the equivalent of wearing what you want. It might not be to everyone's taste but so what. Be individual but only if your taste is the same as everybody else.
Selling a house is stressful enough without becoming a laughing stock. A poster might ask for support while getting their parents into a home and getting the house on the market to pay for the home, and they would get kind replies, then look on another page to see hundreds of people taking the piss out of their family home.
I would like to see these threads banned. Although at least they show people up for who they really are. So many threads are deleted for not being in the spirit but not these
I take it this means laughing at vulnerable people is very much in the spirit.
