Insta Mum 3

[Babaloo88]

Why is the other thread closed?!? I was enjoying reading through it?!!

[Immisssugarlips]

Me too.....

[miamimice]

According to mumsnet the topic is exhausted. This thread will probably get deleted as well as they said no new threads on the topic should be opened

[RunMummyRun68]

the insta mums will have complained to MNHQ.....this thread will also go

discussion closed down
silenced

because i guess theres nothing new to say.....yet!

[ABuckToothedGirlinLuxembourg]

I wondered if the instamums requested they be stopped at the meeting they had? Also there were two posters trying to derail the threads, rather successfully it seems now.

[CadyHeron]

I wasn't trying to derail the threads, but you think what you like.

[RunMummyRun68]

what meeting buck

[ABuckToothedGirlinLuxembourg]

It was mentioned on here by others, that some instamums were having a meeting with mumsnet. I don’t know anything other than that. But I think someone said it was last month? Not sure TBH

[miamimice]

Does anyone remember the Pedlars threads from years back? Did Pedlars become a taboo topic on mumsnet?

[RunMummyRun68]

have been here ten years....not heard of pedlars

[ABuckToothedGirlinLuxembourg]

I’ve bought from pedlars a few times! What was the issue?

[miamimice]

There was a series of long threads about things Pedlars had for sale. They were pretty funny.

[ABuckToothedGirlinLuxembourg]

I’ll have a look.

[wishwish]

ssshhhh....keep the noise down. We aren't allowed to talk about those who can't be named.

[Atalune]

Seriously. MN censorship?

Fuck sake.

MNHQ- what the actual fuck? The feminist board is consistently and repeatedly discussion the trans debate. And it goes on and on as it should. They don’t get shut down for go over old ground.

C’mon MNHQ, what the fuck?

[PavlovaPrincess]

I agree with @FlyingBird and @Atalune

These threads were started partly because any kind of criticism towards the mums on IG, no matter how valid, was immediately shut down and the commenter most likely blocked.

Now it looks like it's started here on MN too...

[HolyMountain]

I think all had been said that needed saying . The last thread was just repeating the same old things that had been said on the previous threads.

Progress has been made in getting IGer’s to state was they are being paid to promote and sell on their grid.

I don’t see what else is there to be discussed at the moment, we’re not the IG police .

[RunMummyRun68]

maybe there are collaborations plans
mums net tried and tested.....maybe mums net product tests will be passed over to the instamums to test instead of us nobodies....can actually see that one happening actually

[chicken2015]

I think its more that converstaion should be allowed to go around in circles, it shouldnt be shut down. I personally think Its shocking that the thread was deleated.

[chicken2015]

I agree Flyingbird

[miamimice]

I found the threads educational though and I find the whole Instagram dynamic fascinating in general. It was interesting to be able to talk to people who had a common interest in how it all worked. It's frustrating that there isn't a platform to have this conversation anywhere now.

[Atalune]

I think the threads should stand and if cady and Stella have been slipped some more dollar bills from gleam to dig in then so be it.

No personal attacks.

I’m still not clear on the issue of consent and children being used to sell. Is the money from all the gifted items placed in a trust??

[MadameGrizzly]

The first threads were a lot more Wild West than the recent ones.
