I hope they aren't having a go at the guinea pig forum.

JeffreySadsacIsUnwell · 20/08/2015 23:08

I finally got the "we've been hacked" MN email Grin. 16:53 today... And to my new (created last night) MN email. Still not received anything via the email address which was associated with the MN account at the point that emails were supposedly sent out, so I assume that the MN server didn't get round to sending the emails till today, though bizarrely it's date-stamped 18th.

TheFlyingSimurgh · 20/08/2015 22:59

Or guinea pigs. Don't forget the guinea pigs.

Pipbin · 20/08/2015 22:57

I love that they think we all sit around and talk about men, like we couldn't talk about anything that isn't them - like toilet brushes or changing bed linen.

TheFlyingSimurgh · 20/08/2015 22:57

They'll keep going for a while. 'Fanaticism consists of redoubling your efforts when you have forgotten your aim.'

Pipbin · 20/08/2015 22:52

Oh, it's all gone a bit shit here.
I've had this before though, nothing to do with Jeff.

Jeffrey is an excellent name for a guinea pig.

PacificDogwood · 20/08/2015 22:51

Steph, yep, Jeffrey and Sergeant Tibbles Grin

Do I really need to point out the the Darling Offspring chose the names?

WalfordEast · 20/08/2015 22:49

HQ- Just to let you know; I got a thread message update email and Outlook are saying you failed their fraud detection checks.

TheFlyingSimurgh · 20/08/2015 22:46

I think that this forum quote gives you all the idea of the attitude you need.

'Swatting them is even more funny tho i wish we had some videos or audio of the bitches crying, kids in the background all that jazz'

StephanieBeacham · 20/08/2015 22:45

You have a guinea pig called jeffrey? Grin brilliant

PacificDogwood · 20/08/2015 22:40

It is The End Of The World As We Know It!!

A guinea pig forum was attacked too?? Mind. Boggled.

Maybe my GP called Jeffrey is the Jeffrey after all

TheFlyingSimurgh · 20/08/2015 22:36

Because it was there?

Pipbin · 20/08/2015 22:33

A guinea pig forum? Why would they want to get into that?

Fleurdelise · 20/08/2015 22:29

Stepha_nie Grin

The way I imagine our Jeff is around 14 yo and spotty, can you include spotty Jeff in your rapping? Grin

VivaLeBeaver · 20/08/2015 22:28

Oddly enough ive also had a five attempt email from an obscure guinea pig forum I sometimes frequent.

OMGmetoo · 20/08/2015 22:26

Someone tried to login to a forum that I mentioned here once, I got the "5 attempts, now locked out" email. Thankfully, I had already changed the password there, it was the only sire that shared the password with MN.

magimedi · 20/08/2015 22:24

Has Dad_Sec got the Whole Of The Internet getting worried?!

Yes, PD - we are all going to implode!!
