AIBU to be upset about a facebook group

AIBU staying in a facebook group?

I have had a quick name change!

I'm a member of a large facebook group for natural parents who are also science aware. This group has been a fantastic resource and support network but its all gone wrong. The people running the page all have their own issues and are ganging up on other members for what seems like no reason.

I have thought long and hard about leaving the group because it seems like playground bullying but i just cant seem to do it.

They are great when you need your hand holding and will help you with any problem you could think of. They have a fantastic support network of Nutella addicts and people with difficulties like ADHD and depression I'm not sure there there is a better community.

BUT posting in it can be like stepping onto a nest of vipers. People having mental health problems can be kicked out for no good reason OR supported with people being sent round to check on them or taxis being called and paid for by the group when fleeing a husband. It just depends if you are in with the right crowd or not.

There are many LGBTQ members and there are a lot who are in relationships or who have experimented with eachother and this is causing tension on the group.

I cant seem to leave but i can't seem to stay and I don't even know these people in real life.

Have they told you bots to stop posting? What's the punishment if you don't?

It's getting very Tom Cruise in here.

OkMaybeNot · 14/06/2018 15:16

Or pigs to milk or something?

Haaaaaa

@TattyFrench Crying at "pigs to milk"😂

niugboo · 14/06/2018 14:55

@sanptillidie pretty sure sanp admin issued an order to cease engagement. Watch it. You’ll be next.

Germantree · 14/06/2018 14:54

Read the start of this late last night, thought I must be more sleep deprived than I thought because it was so batshit. Double checked after a sleep and nope, not me, really is totally insane.

Dare I admit...Ive never seen what the big deal is about Nutella?

FlyingElbows · 14/06/2018 14:53

I'm not surprised someone went a bit emotionally wobbly if people kept putting snakes under her. Did Barbara sanction this?

TattyFrench · 14/06/2018 14:51

I think those of you here from SNAP, or whatever, really need to step back and think about why you are TAKING THIS SO SERIOUSLY, whatever THIS is. It's weird, don't you have normal lives to be getting on with? Or pigs to milk or something?

idlikemoresleep · 14/06/2018 14:48

I don't think I've ever been so confused by a thread 😂😂

sanptillidie · 14/06/2018 14:46

I’m not threatening you. You asked me if I would just drop it if people were lying about me and my answer is I think I would just block, switxh off my phone and concentrate on looking after myself. I think thats what people on both sides of this should do tbh

Ahardmanisgoodtofind · 14/06/2018 14:46

Just read TFT on my lunch break and offered cows pus to my bosses. instead asking if they'd like milk.
And to the posters in/were in the group. Spell out for the rest of us what you're talking about for all of us nosey cows because it's all very confusing.
Where are all these drama filled groups on FB?ones I'm in are boring. I need drama filled groups to justify eating my Nutella out of the jar, otherwise is frowned upon.

WhatTHEJiggins · 14/06/2018 14:45

@OkMaybeNot try being part of the actual group where admin are convinced they are reasonable humans but shut people down before any reasonable discussion has been had and tell you to pm them about it and ignore you anyway.

OkMaybeNot · 14/06/2018 14:41

These fuckers are intimidating Shock

niugboo · 14/06/2018 14:41

Problem is I don’t like being lied about. And I know what I did. Ergo I know it’s lies.

niugboo · 14/06/2018 14:40

@sanptillidie that reads like a threat. I’m sure it wasn’t meant to read like a threat...

OkMaybeNot · 14/06/2018 14:39

Nutella mafia.

Wellfuckmeinbothears · 14/06/2018 14:31

My god do none of you scientific nutters realise how threatening you sound?!

WhatTHEJiggins · 14/06/2018 14:29

😂😂😂 the OP is back!

honeybeetheoneandonly · 14/06/2018 14:24

Hm, it looks like the OP and sounds like the OP but is anyone else concerned that after such a long absence the overlords have taken over OP's account while the real OP is swimming with the fishes...weight down by nutella jars?!

sanptillidie · 14/06/2018 14:22

I think the issue is, not everyone has all the information. Except those with friends in both groups.

So much this. And no-one knows whats going down by PM.

Niugboo If it were me I’d be blocking, lying low, lookin after myself and waiting for it to blow over. Not riling it all up on mumsnet.

SluttyButty · 14/06/2018 14:18

Well I think the OP has been fed Nutoka fake stuff 😱

Wellfuckmeinbothears · 14/06/2018 14:17

Oh barbra...

IDontBowlOnShabbos · 14/06/2018 14:11

I posted a pic of him up thread Wellfuckme. The sex wasn't that bad but this bish at the window put me off.
