it might be quicker to go to the thread in question and click on the red exclamation mark on your post, and report it. Think MNHQ respond more quickly that way. HTH

click 'hide this thread' at the top of the page (on that thread obvs) and pretend it never happened.

The old head-in-the-sand trick.

It can be deleted if the person who started it requests it to be!

No, not with the op! I thought it was a good topic and I wanted to discuss it!

Not the initial thing, but the idea that someone on mn could feel unable to voice their opinion on a subject because they felt - intimidated? Afraid they'd fall out of favour?

Folks should feel free to give their opinion, not feel that if it is not likely to meet with approval they have to sit on their hands.

I think mn could do with a wider range of opinions, everyone claims to think the same way on here and it's getting boring!

Arse. Why do I always miss deleted threads?

(obviously before their deletion... Tis inevitable I would miss them once they have already been deleted )

Oh Hecate, you're not turning into one of those gum sucking old timers who whine about how much better it was 'back in the day', are you?

I have only been here a couple of years, and even I have seen the change - I don't remember any whinging about hurt feelings when i started out.

Do I have to wear pants that cover my navel and start tucking a hanky up my sleeve?



Will I begin to smell of lavender?

It used to be so nice.

I mean, I thought you were a load of old bitches, but we could really really get into an issue.

You already smell of lavender... we were just all too polite to say. It might have hurt your feelings
