SP's thread was trolling?

EirikurNoromaour · 24/02/2014 18:02

I'm obviously incredibly relieved. But massively disturbed. How did that happen? Is SP ok?

I missed all this, but what a fucking vile thing to do. Bereavement trolling? Despicable.

So glad you and the 'tude are well, Derek. Like the name!

PoorOldCat · 24/02/2014 19:10

Fwiw I don't think it sounds personal iyswim? If it's a PBP with form for random bereavement threads, it's unlikely to be personal as in grudge type thing or RL acquaintance.

That might be reassuring anyway

Rissolesfortea · 24/02/2014 19:08

This was not a mere troll, it was a vicious attack on a particular person and I hope the person responsible is dealt with accordingly.

Glad both SP and DS are ok.

SauvignonBlanche · 24/02/2014 19:08

How awful! Shock

ballsballsballs · 24/02/2014 19:08

Derek so glad that your little one is okay.

What a fucking evil thing to do. :(

desertmum · 24/02/2014 19:07

It struck me as odd when I read it - so glad my instinct was right - and that all is well with you ES.D - what a horrible and sad thing to do. Give the tude a hug

TotallyAddictedToLurking · 24/02/2014 19:07

I'm so relieved you are both OK. What an awful thing for someone to do to you!!!

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 24/02/2014 19:06

Very glad you're OK Derek xxx

NigellasDealer · 24/02/2014 19:05

xx to you and your boy eatshitderek

LineRunner · 24/02/2014 19:05

Hi, SP-Derek. Glad you are ok. Some weird shit, huh? You know you have loads of friends here so if you need help over this situation just shout.

IamInvisible · 24/02/2014 19:03

Glad you are ok.xxx

PoorOldCat · 24/02/2014 19:02

I still have the thread open in another tab. It only contained one post from the OP - th other 250-odd were people saying how dreadfully sorry they were.

In case that helps. Glad you are Ok x

FreeLikeABird · 24/02/2014 19:02

I missed the thread but what a disgusting thing to do Confused I hope sp is ok, this "troll" needs dealing with.

There have been several along similar lines in bereavement - the ones I have seen seem to involve babies (sometimes twins) dying.

Very simple, plainly written OP of just a few lines.

The OP doesn't tend to come back. (on the thread I mean)

I wonder if it is that one - they have been prevalent the last month or two.

usualsuspect33 · 24/02/2014 19:00

I don't think MNHQ should just sweep this under the carpet.

It needs dealing with.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 24/02/2014 18:59

RowanMumsnet it must be right to inform the police. This site and its users can't help this person but the police will be able to.

I want to thank you and the reporter/s again for exposing and deleting this so quickly. I would have had a very disturbed night otherwise, as would many others here Flowers

Lots of love SP and an ocean of relief.

SerotoninCanEatTomorrow · 24/02/2014 18:58

I wish I 'knew' SP in real life. I so want to give her a hug she must be devastated to have this happen to her name.

I was utterly bereft when I read that thread as I felt so much of a kindred spirit in her xx

Northernlurker · 24/02/2014 18:58

Bereavement has been trolled a lot. It's awful.

Mamafratelli · 24/02/2014 18:58

Missed the thread but what an awful thing to do. Angry

Cocolepew · 24/02/2014 18:57

I'm glad I missed this, how awful. WTF is wrong with people?
I'm hope SP is ok.

Joules68 · 24/02/2014 18:56

Didn't so have to lay low/ name change due to some trouble with RL?

Just wondering why this troll specifically chose her and I'm hoping it's nobody she knows. It's quite sinister how one person gets chosen

JakeBullet · 24/02/2014 18:56

How fucked up do you have to be in order to post a troll thread like that.

I am overjoyed that SP's little boy is still with us but fuming that anyone could troll in such a disgusting way.Angry

LineRunner · 24/02/2014 18:55

As KoalaFace said upthread, some posters left very personal messages for 'SP' about their own bereavement experiences. I'd like to see MNHQ play hardball with this particular troll - involving the Police seems a proportionate response to me.
