ARGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!! It's so annoying!

See a juicy looking title, click on it . . . thread deleted. Why? What happened!? I MUST know!

Or WORSE! You're really invested in a thread, been following and replying for ages, just spent 10 minutes typing out your most recent epic reply, you hit post . . . thread deleted!

AAAARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!

I posted on the "help my wife" one. I hate it when that happens!! I just clicked on it too...gone.

Mind you, I did once start a thread about a deleted thread that I was utterly engrossed in and I got told off by MNHQ Hmm

Was it another troll thread? There are far too many of them these days.

I also hate it when threads are deleted at the OP's request and MN cop out with a 'deleted to protect the OP's identity' comment. Hmm

I don't understand a troll's motivation at all. They must be VERY bored. And even then I can't imagine trolling is very exciting!

Totally with you op. I get why TAATs aren't allowed but it would be great for everyone to be able to do a "what just happened and did you get taken in by the trolling?" for a short time afterwards.

I was reading the "help my wife" when it was deleted, hadn't read far enough to even think it was a troll. Gutted. Could someone PM me a summary too pls?

I don't get why TAAT's aren't allowed? But then I don't get why zombie threads are bad either

I'm a creative writer, by hobby. I sometimes wonder if they are the saddo-geeks of the CW world (bearing in mind I am also a geek, but not a saddo-geek).

Hmm, my writing goal for the day will be to create a new character I have filled out my obsessive character sheet and have a character. But is he believable? I know, I will test it out on a well-known parenting forum!

Summary -

I cheated on my wife, how do I make her shag me again? Ya know, for her sake.

This has all just hurt me soooo much.

I'm so hurt by what I've done.

It's all about the sex.

No it's not about sex, it's all about my wife bless 'er.

Me me me I I I I etc.

That was about it really!

Bunfights that got squelched start up again and trolls that are feeding off the attention get exactly what they want - more people talking about them.

Since this will be deleted as a TAAT, can we all say something we always wanted to say on MN Grin?

There was a really obvious troll one earlier from a woman claiming to have been a home educated Christian wanting to know how to make a baby with her husband!

Well this is more of a thread inspired by a thread. It genuinely does wind me up all the time!

They need to remove deleted threads from the trending list (note to the Mumsnet development team!)
