Secret Location on Mumsnet

Does Mumsnet really have a secret area where only those who have happened to be in the right place at the right time know about? I have just seen a load of allusions to a new thread in a secret place and it is the first I have heard about it!

Nothing is "private" on MN.

I've just checked too, I was wrong non members can read it.

AnyFucker · 02/09/2013 12:57

I thought so too so I just checked. I logged out and could still read it. the checked the bumpf at the top of the OTBT threads. Go have a look.

I don't think so Usual. I could be wrong, though!

usualsuspect · 02/09/2013 12:54

I thought you had to be a member to read it?

usualsuspect · 02/09/2013 12:50

Which I don't blame you really, my typing is shocking

AnyFucker · 02/09/2013 12:49

You don't need to be a member of MN to read posts in OTBT, but you have to be to post (like all the topics)

usualsuspect · 02/09/2013 12:48

Or is there another secret place,no one told me about? [Paranoid]

usualsuspect · 02/09/2013 12:46

Do they nean off the beaten track?

If you a member of MN you can read it

AnyFucker · 02/09/2013 12:45

It isn't a private place. All posts can still be seen and anyone can join in if they are a member of MN, they just don't come up on Google searches.

DameDeepRedBetty · 02/09/2013 12:43

Is this an Off The Beaten Track thread?

Tee2072 · 02/09/2013 12:39

It's not secret, it's not indexed on Google, but it's actually no more private than the rest of MN.
