It's such a shame because reading them back is like reading a diary, but my mum did a search on Jeune syndrome and found my posts on a German board, where I use the same name as here, so it's only a short step for her to find all my messages on MN, which I've told her about.
And other people might do the same and read things about me they should never, ever know.

Is there any way I can save the birth announcement thread about Sebastian?

And please can you help me find a new name?

Right, I just did a search on here and a search on google and I think I might just leave things. Nothing seems to throw up anything too disastrous that people couldn't read.

I think I might change name to semkana anyway, wouldn't really be fair to leave ds out.

oh i thought you meant a german site had used your posts!

tamum · 29/06/2006 20:03

Oh no emkana, as if you didn't have enough on your plate. Have you started a thread about Sebastian yet?

How about semkana?

Oh no, sorry emkana, I've only just realised how unhelpful my post probably was... my mother is a bit of a different case, she is...well, ill. Please ignore my interruptions.

You have enough on your plate already, so sorry you have this to worry about too

SoupDragon · 29/06/2006 19:48

Would your mum actually do this, Emkana?

I'd search out the incriminating stuff, report theposts and then think about it if I were you.

Oh I don't know can't make up my mind...

WWW, I completely panicked at the time - nearly stopped posting altogether and was in tears for ages (she found out other stuff about me too). But then I calmed down, MN deleted the really incriminating stuff, and I sort of decided "stuff it, let her look". I do feel shaken though. It's like being stalked

Sorry for threadjack. How about emsekana?

Sebakamen sounds like spot cream.

WideWebWitch · 29/06/2006 19:39

No, don't gs, what an absolute pain in the bum though. Bet you're very wary.

Oh bum, sorry, I posted it too.

Greensleeves · 29/06/2006 19:38

Don't want to say any more WWW because she is almost certainly reading MN trying to work out who I am. It's bloody horrible

WideWebWitch · 29/06/2006 19:38

Oh god, you'd also have to delete my post, sorry didn't think but even typing the words J e etc will prob come up on a search, sorry.

I like mumkana, might do that.

Yes maybe I'll do a search for the personal stuff...

there's just some things where I've been a bit bitchy about her/other friends, and I'd be mortified if people read those things.

Think we can change your name on all your previous posts - will check with his Techliness - would that work?

WideWebWitch · 29/06/2006 19:37

Oh NO GS, did she? How?

WideWebWitch · 29/06/2006 19:37

Or could you get mn to change all your posts to something else (surely they've got a find and replace thing?) and then delete the Jeunes ones?

Greensleeves · 29/06/2006 19:36

I asked MN to delete all my posts the other day because my mother had found out about MN. They refused because they said it makes a nonsense of the boards for everyone else. I ended up combing through all my posts, reporting the "sensitive" ones individually, which were then deleted.

marthamoo · 29/06/2006 19:36

Nemaka.

Mumkana's good, sobernow!
