Can we have a new rule, please, that UserName987654321987654321 has to

I think the user/number thing is the worst idea MNHQ have ever had.

Normally when people are moaning about new updates, like 'trending', the emojis, the social media buttons, the new typeface etc, I genuinely find myself thinking "Meh, it's not that bad".

But this is ridiculous and I now don't want to interact with anyone who has user/number as their NN.

No-one can remember the numbers anyway so they might just as well have given all newbies the name Bob, because they all look the same.

The user### today on the two threads are the same person. There's more than one. Think I have reported 4? All different user### but all the same person. The latest id user #### is using has said they keep rejoining.
The system clearly isn't working.
I am with others and not engaging with any user#### not worth it.

It is getting worse. I've never reported so many threads as I have in the last hour. All from user########

There are so many trolls jumping onto this bandwagon, I would suggest you suspend the lot and tell them they must re-register with proper usernames.

Agreed. Please stop the user#########
I get them confused and so many of them are GFs (or maybe it's all the same one) that I am just not posting on any threads with a user### on it just now.

I'm properly cross now that Maryz is getting publicly slagged off because someone at MN can't read her post properly.

I think the deletion was a mistake, in an attempt to react quicker following complaints. Stupid, but not malicious.

The deletion of today's post shows that something needs to be done MNHQ!

I'm with maryz, i will henceforth be ignoring (except to report) any poster whose name is user###.

If we all completely blank them, perhaps mnhq will consider scrapping the idea?

I cannot believe that the thread Maryz started got deleted. Is it now the case that any thread with a userxxxx troll on will be treated as if the OP is not 'genuine' also? It had the potential to be a hugely valuable thread, I am very upset that it has been removed for no reason whatsoever.

OK, I've now found out which thread that was. Wasn't it you who started it, Maryz? The deletion message was really offensive, as there was nothing wrong with OP's intentions. I don't see why it had to go. MN only needed to delete the idiot troll's messages.

Which thread was that?

Thanks her there isn't much that shocks me anymore but that certainly caught me off guard.

Even the deletion message on that thread says op started it not with the best of intentions

There was sod all wrong with the thread
It's important that parents if children with SEN can share this stuff without having the response we were subject to

Sort it out MNHQ

elsa I'm sorry you had to read that. There are some complete fuckwits in this world.

That deletion message needs to be changed. Op was fine, some troll was being a cunt to me, it wasn't the ops fault at all.

Ffs goady

Why has the thread been deleted? It wasn't the OP being a goody fuckers!

I'm fucking angry at that thread. I don't have a child with SN (although I suspect myself and DS1 have aspergers, but they are just suspicions) I was reading as a lot of those things have been said about children I know.

Was the PBP who we were all happy to see the back of (user...ending 881 I think and off to her island) able to re-register due to the user... thing or was that just an unhappy co-incidence?

Another voice for change if system.

If the Two word thing didn't work, what about a random word then numbers. So apple1234 then banana1234 then carrot1234 and so on. Then round again with a different word. At least there would be something to type!

maryz you may stand. Just remember I like to be addressed as "her maj" (not really. Fatty will do)
