When all this has been sorted out, can we have a Gin emoticon please?

Simurgh · 25/08/2015 19:46

Thanks Olivia.

(I'm amazed you're awake enough to post!)

howtorebuild · 25/08/2015 19:46

Gin, chicken and sick emotions.

shopafrolic · 25/08/2015 19:47

Marking place and hoping MNHQ will see my question on previous thread.

twirlypoo · 25/08/2015 19:47

And a chicken emoticon too! I saw things when I went to gransnet I did, They have proper tea cups there too Shock

Pipbin · 25/08/2015 19:47

??

BankWadger · 25/08/2015 19:47

Does the USA have an equivalent forum? Is MN unique in how liberaluncensored and blissfully swearyit is and that's why we draw so much ire?

BankWadger · 25/08/2015 19:50

And can we have [vodka] for those of us who don't drink Gin?

please

WaverleyOwl · 25/08/2015 19:50

I don't know if this is weird, but I'm hoping you are not getting too stressed about this.

I help manage a few websites (NHS) and I know the stress when things stop working. I can't imagine what it's like when your site is deliberately targeted.

We are all fine. We will all come back. No need to worry on that front. Just sort out the tech, and we'll be here when you have that done.

Gin Thanks Gin

Lweji · 25/08/2015 19:51

Answering Bank here as well to suggest we should rename Jeff as Donald.

fattymcfatfat · 25/08/2015 19:51

yes please can we have [vodka] ?
pretty please with a cherry on top?

LittleRedRidingHoodie1 · 25/08/2015 19:53

Yes vodka. Neat. On ice. No messing.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 25/08/2015 19:53

We have a sick emoticon Envy

PacificDogwood · 25/08/2015 19:54

Oh, it never occurred to me to abandon the Good Ship Mumsnet Shock

As a MN uses, Jeff is minor annoyance, you know, like a buzzing fly. I hope the Powers That Be will swat him soon see what I did there? Grin

Pipbin · 25/08/2015 19:54

The Twitter account picture that is showing one picture where he is logged in but blocking him. The other is where he has simply logged out and then searched the same person.

MsMarthaMay · 25/08/2015 19:57

What plans do you have to tackle this mnhq? Should be worried about further attacks and publishing of our personal details?

Simurgh · 25/08/2015 19:58

I'm afraid that you vodka drinkers are going to have to come to terms with nice long, iced, crisp G&Ts if you want to be on this site. Wink

(I fully expect that any new registration or validation requirements will include some relevant questions. Grin)

rumbleinthrjungle · 25/08/2015 19:59

Boring little twat. Apparently starting a forum himself for men/dads and actually doing anything about his politics is clashing with his Minecraft time. It's quite baffling reading around that the majority of male ire about mumsnet seems to boil down to 'but they didn't set us up a specifically male oriented one for us tooooooo (or first) and that's sexissssst'. The irony seems to escape them. Or that a number of very sane men engage on MN daily and they'd be welcome to do the same if they chose to.

I await the heartrending AIBU appearing from his mother. 'My son has wasted huge amounts of police time and resources and huge amounts of taxpayer money in the interests of making thousands of women a bit cross, and thinks he's the online Voldemort. AIBU to make him sell his laptop on ebay and bake a cake personally for every MNHQ member when he finally gets out of jail?'

Adding my bit of moral support. Wine

I wouldn't eat a cake Jeffrey had baked ... you'd never know where his hands had been. He could use the income from his paper round to buy us all a nice cake though.

SouthWestmom · 25/08/2015 20:04

Just checking in. I have created a new email account just for mumsnet.

Macadaamia · 25/08/2015 20:05

I've just seen the Twitter pages of what appears to be a mumsnetter.... Also, he tweeted 'who is simon' .... What's that about?

SouthWestmom · 25/08/2015 20:05

Actually o need to add it to my account
