Mumsnet Talk

Actually, LaQueen the sky is white today? Cos there's clouds in it? Duh?

[narrows eyes at Just ...raises any eyebrow...]

Have you noticed that the initial of Goady Fuckers also relates to SWMNBM?

Coincidence?

[Phoebe face]

<offers chaos toast and suggests she kicks on a mat for 30 mins>

Took mw ages to work out how anyone could goadily fuck (or fuckily goad?) About a vacuum cleaner (vax)

Think it would be fuckily goad.

Yes, I noticed the abbreviation was the same as SWMNBN.

<spooky music>

ANY eyebrow LaQueen ?

Ignoring only helps if we all recognise this type of trolling.

So true. Don't want to fall foul of the Talk Guidelines, but there is one, recurrent, goader who draws people in every time she posts, and it ends up with people being sucked into feeding her agenda, despite having being banned several times over already. MNHQ do what they can, but unfortunately not everyone does ignore, and so the whole cycle repeats itself.

I don't know what the answer is tbh. Other than report & ignore, but it doesn't seem enough somehow.

In all seriousness, I am sick of people fuckily goading on the feminist threads. It is rare you can get a decent chat going on there without someone going "but it's not faaaaaaaaair, I want to sleep with prostitutes" or whatever the fuck they're going on about.

This is MN, I think people could gladly fuck with a thread about vacuum cleaners. Some people have very strong views about such things. Surprisingly so!

I have a very strong feeling about my vacuum cleaner... I feel it is clogged and that I shall have to disassemble the damn thing to get it sucking again.

Fool, but those women are all small businesswomen who earna squillion pounds a year and go home after their incredibly short shiftf laughing don't you know.

It is amazing what people get incredibly worked up about.

I think I sometimes struggle along the line between goady fucker and just really thick and combative.
It's a challenge.

Yes SPB obviously I KNOW that, I just hate sex so I want everyone to be a big old feminist prude like me.

And yes, I DO have a dried-up old fanny. Now can everyone stop being so nubile?

sob

You've got to watch those vacuum cleaner threads. They always turn into nasty bunfights. Generally Miele vs Henry - almost as contentious as ff vs bf

I should be okay. I have a Vax. And have no idea about these things as I am a slattern who only bought that model because it was half price.

Just - I can raise any of my eyebrows [talented]

Olivia should prepare for a tidal wave of wtf reports.

I am so going to 'wtf' report in future. So pithy!

It's not about dissenting opinions, Floaty, they've always been around. The goady fuckers do it on purpose, they aren't trying to express a viewpoint, they're trying to fuck with the flow of conversation and the dynamic of whatever site they're playing on.

Some are single interest fuckers who are trying to disrupt for a reason, like the MRA trolls who see themselves as a crack team shutting down feminist debate online or the political astroturfers who are employed to seed ideas and to try and manage the parameters of the debate online.

The rest are just flat out trolls and being a goady fucker is where it's at when it comes to keeping themselves entertained.

Dissenting opinions are fine, they're the lifeblood of any decent forum. Goady fuckers are disingenuous, they're interacting with other posters in a manipulative fashion and in pursuit of their own agenda. Whether they're pathetic or sinister, they have a negative affect on forums.

I'm withholding jokes until we get a haiku deletion message.

Sorry for adding to your workload, Olivia.

I think tell a joke reports is a great idea. I will get DS to help me. Sure MNHQ would love his poo-willy-bum jokes.

Haiku deletion message a good idea. How about:
