Ebay just asked me for further security questions/answers. Interesting

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

I received an email from MNHQ saying that I'd requested a password reset - I didn't. I did a couple of days ago when the first message went out to advise resetting your password but I hadn't got around to doing it the second time. Have emailed MNHQ to let them know and have now changed my password again.

I got the email from Virgin, which may have been a coincidence, but as I do have a Virgin Trains log in I have changed my password. I didn't follow the link in the email though.

I think Steph has done a wondrous job
Although he's still a total knob

StephanieBeacham · 20/08/2015 22:04

No fair enough PD. ahem.

I have to get the minions to bed. And put on some more lipstick. Back to serious matters.

PacificDogwood · 20/08/2015 22:02

You are a poetess of epic rhyming power, Steph, but I still don't feel sorry for Jeffrey. He remain a prick. Hope the SWAT get him soon.

Poor Jeffrey only had one sheet,

a flannel, folded, rather neat,

he did not wash them very oft,

(the algae on them made them soft)

his buddies over on 8-channel

didn't care about his flannel

all their bedsits smelled the same

a mouldy sink, a sense of shame -

and so his life was turned around

when he in mumsnet's bosom found

a proper throng of goodly wimmin

to make him wash his dirty linen.

Smile

I'm feeling really sorry for him now.

PacificDogwood · 20/08/2015 21:58

Stepanie, kudos Grin

Fairenuff · 20/08/2015 21:58

I see that the warning has gone from the login page now. Any reason for that HQ?

Glittery7 · 20/08/2015 21:54

Ridiculous that I've been made to change my password 3 times in one day. WTF!!

TiredButFineODFOJ · 20/08/2015 21:52

Time for a namechange stephanie

Grin

his flannel is minging, his spirit is weaker, Nothing left for him but to sip from his Penis Beaker?

' in a wild turn of events, stephaniebeacham busts out an EPIC RAP BATTLE DISS and drops the mic BOOM'

StephanieBeacham · 20/08/2015 21:49

Flannels! of course

hmm
see what I can do

DontTellThePrincessBride · 20/08/2015 21:47

And speculation on how often he changes his sheets.

SarfEasticatedMumma · 20/08/2015 21:46

Owned indeed StephanieBeacham
Wish you could work in the word flannel though...

I do apologise if it is the wrong time or place. I could not help myself.

epic rap

He has two accounts left.

StephanieBeacham · 20/08/2015 21:40

They called him dad_security

he came from rank_obscurity

behind a mask he had to hide

of whitefoundation, badlyapplied

he seemed to want to make a name

which based upon a dubious claim

regretfully was giggled at;

he earned the label #total_twat

instead of what he'd waited for

(a hero in his little war)

and so it came, one August night

he found he could not win the fight

so wandered off to S&B

he had to start a thread you see

and now our Jeff knows where his friends are -

helping him find a decent cleanser.

I doubt many of them are fathers. That just seem threatened by women.

Allisgood1 · 20/08/2015 21:32

Can someone explain why I still haven't been logged out?

msgrinch · 20/08/2015 21:29

Stephanie exactly, I honestly have never seen a thread that hasn't been leaning towards the fathers rights. I had a year stint of nrp and I do know how gut wrenching and awful it feels. It almost broke me. I do feel for anyone mother/father who isn't near their children, I know that pain. This isn't the way to solve it though, you don't do this, you pull your shit together and you fight for your kids.

Arkkorox · 20/08/2015 21:27

There was a tweet from him suggesting there was more stuff to come but I couldn't figure out if that was targeted towards MN or if the MN shit is the tip of the iceberg
