Come and talk to MNHQ: live webchat about moderation and stuff with Justine and HelenMN, Thursday 4 October, 1pm-2pm

[HelenMumsnet]

Hello. We hope you all already feel you can talk to us at MNHQ anytime - either by starting a thread in Site Stuff or by mailing us or reporting a post.

But we also thought it might be useful/interesting to have a live discussion about how how about we do things re moderation etc...

So, we're hosting our very own MNHQ live webchat!

Please do join us at 1pm on Thursday to ask (more or less) anything you want. And, if you can't make then, do feel free to post a nice question here in advance.

Blimey, you're brave!

Is this some kind of forfeit you agreed to in lieu of drinking a yard of ale at the meet-up or something?

[HelenMumsnet]

[KnottyLocks]

@Sparklingbrook

Knew this was a baaaaaaaaad idea...

[Hullygully]

Stop the mad deletions.

Do not delete unless the insulted wants it. Most of us would rather let the insulter's fuckwittery stand.

[SheelaNeGig]

I'm going to be asleep. Not because you are boring but because I will be awake all night catching babies.

Anyway.......

1. Can you please clarify The Rules regarding freds about freds.
   

1. When will be be getting a ?
   

[Sparklingbrook]

HelenMN.

[SheelaNeGig]

1. How come I never win competitions?

[BigStickBIWI]

Wot Hully said.

[Iggly]

That was my question too Sheela re competitions

[Sparklingbrook]

The answer to every question could be SSDNCOP which could make for a bit of a dull webchat.

[Iggly]

On a more serious note though please can we improve the local pages/boards? I'm a tsarina thingy but didn't get any info on how to update the pages etc. new mums come here looking for info like baby groups etc but end up on nethunsmums as it has much better info.

[Iggly]

Strike out fail

[Kveta]

ooh, Iggly has a good point - our local page is crap, no idea who the tsarina is, and the most prolific local poster on the local board seems to be me, despite there being quite a lot of us in the area.

other point - your ante/post natal chat threads are fantastic. I have made some lovely friends through the ones I've been on, and they have been a wonderful source of support - so thank you!

[NormaStanleyFletcher]

Ohhh - this could be interesting

[MrsWembley]

I think you're all lovely but why can't you have a Christmas bash outside of London? In Bristol, perhaps?

[MrsWembley]

Oh, and wot Hully said.

[Tee2072]

Where's the Non-England Christmas Bash? What about Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland, huh?!?!

Anyway...yes, stop deleting. Let me call people what they deserve to be called. Just me though...

[MrsWembley]

Bristol could nearly do for Wales, couldn't it?

[cocolepew]

Are you mad?!

[FrankWippery]

Sadly I'll be at the dentist (really truly sadly) so will miss the fun.

Just wondering, like, what the monthly consumption of gin is with you at MNTowers. Also, does the weekend consumption at least quadruple the weekday total?

Who eats the most biscuits and what are your favourite ones?

Pertinent questions I feel. Ta.
