Or maybe it'll all die down and everyone will forget who has been banned and why.

I think it'll die down, but if anyone needs urgent need of advice on rehoming a dog, oh yes, then we'll remember Sad

seriously for a mo - if that does happen, is there someone qualified and willing to deal with all those - too many - 'Valhalla, over here' type threads?

Tortoiseonthehalfshell · 09/11/2011 12:37

Have we moved on from tortoises? I can discuss tortoises.

GrimmaTheNome · 09/11/2011 12:34

If I ever get that sad - shoot me.

Oh dear. I think your presence on this thread may qualify you. Unless you say something really funny or at least completely and utterly unrelated to Other Forums or the original topic of the thread.

Hullygully · 09/11/2011 12:34

I think you much reach a higher status when you are banned, so you become some sort of celebrity. Freed from the shackles of Mumsnet you can start other forums and slag them all off to your hearts content! Whatever you ever wanted to say but couldn't can all come out. Until you get bored and decide to join Mumsnet again.

Or perhaps not? Perhaps the mouldies/fungals will join forces with the banned to become a super secret forum and perhaps that will all happen just before Christmas. Then some of those going to the Christmas Do will be forced to admit that they were banned Mumsnetters who have just re-joined under a false name to gain information.....

Or maybe it'll all die down and everyone will forget who has been banned and why.

oh, I googled it.

Seems it was the flowers that she loved.

The sweets are from a British company.

But did you know you can get GIANT parmaviolets?

NoOnesGoingToEatYourEyes · 09/11/2011 12:18

It's not about the ban anymore.

It's more about the llamas than the dramas now.

Did she MmeLindor? Suddenly my halloween leftovers seem much more exclusive than they did before.

TheRhubarb · 09/11/2011 12:14

be [insert where appropriate] Smile

TheRhubarb · 09/11/2011 12:14

Soupy - they'll at school, it's ok! (apart from the one you've locked under the stairs)

MmeLindor. · 09/11/2011 12:12

If this thread kicks off can someone sound the klaxon. I really need to be doing other stuff.

Parma violets are connected to Bonaparte, are they not? Was it not his wife who loved them?

SixStringWidow · 09/11/2011 12:07

next person to type gets banned

SoupDragon · 09/11/2011 12:07

"Do these people not have jobs? Children? Homes? Real life friends?"

Fuck! The children!

Sevenfold · 09/11/2011 12:05

another thread??
why, someone was banned.
mn hq run the site their call/
I din't like it when my mate as banned, I talke to mn hq privately, and at the end of the day whether I agree or not it is their call.
same here imo.
there is no way they can back down now even if they wanted too.
(but if they do I will start a thread asking for my mate to be allowed back, as why not)

TheRhubarb · 09/11/2011 11:59

Wow Mumsnet HQ must be pretty pleased with the impact they are having! I mean, people are giving up their real lives to bang on and on and on about how they were banned from a virtual internet forum - and then they set up another forum talking about the forum from which they were banned!

If I ever get that sad - shoot me.

Seriously though, surely life is not that bad that being banned from a forum (which is easy to bypass by simply creating another email address and username) takes up all the hours of your day? Do these people not have jobs? Children? Homes? Real life friends?

SoupDragon · 09/11/2011 11:56

I used to have a link to a fab drama llama though. i shall search it out...

SoupDragon · 09/11/2011 11:53

What has made me snigger most about the Other Forum is that they comment how sad and pathetic it is that there are people lurking and then commenting about it on MN and then they copy chunks from mN threads and talk about them on their forum.

Fabulous.

Can't even type it, let alone say it.

SixStringWidow · 09/11/2011 11:03

Drama

GrimmaTheNome · 09/11/2011 11:01

I was once somewhere when there was a report of trains being delayed by llamas on the line. And someone said, 'weird place to meditate'....

GrimmaTheNome · 09/11/2011 10:59

Definitely 'Parma' - as in Parma I presume as Parma Violets are an Italian violet Grin

JeremyVile · 09/11/2011 10:59

No, but i did wake up with the phrase 'Drama Llama' in my head.

It's been intruding my thoughts all morning.

NoOnesGoingToEatYourEyes · 09/11/2011 10:54

Is anyone else seeing how quickly they can say "Llama Farmer" ten times in a row now?

NoOnesGoingToEatYourEyes · 09/11/2011 10:50

It may be parma rather than palma. My spelling can never really be relied upon to be completely accurate, but parma makes me think of ham, and palma seems more violet-like.
