Abandoning the policy of responding to all reports was a mistake I think.

I know exactly which thread you mean,junior.

My 2 nd thread gone. No doubt a ban coming...hey ho

What? 15 or so deleted threads on the same subject is too many?

and for those pressing the button this weekend; we're just trying to keep you on your toes!

Constance Agreed. It's like banging your head against a brick wall. I'll look forward to seeing what's happened by tomorrow. I shall keep up hopefully on the other site.

I think people should just stop now keep starting threads tbh about it, it won't hurry HQ up with a response.

I have reported an evident troll about 3 times over the past couple of weeks, sat on my hands and not posted on the thread. Poster has posted similar threads over the years, not sure of the purpose of posting but maybe practice for writing fiction as does not really engage even with supportive posters, a bit like zeebrugge. It would have been useful to have a response from MNHQ as to why they are not deleting like we used to, as I can see people are starting to get frustrated and posting troll huntery stuff.

MN is no longer a friendly little cafe, it's a hypermarket with twisty turny passages, all alike.

And OliviaMN & RowanMN.

They used to actually fool about on the threads with us. I guess MN is too big for that sort of thing now .

There used to be a lot of banter (!) with lovely HelenMN and RebeccaMN.

Yes, WellErrr. And you'd have a bit of a friendly chat with Olivia or Helen or whoever.

I wonder what happens nowadays if someone says Mitmoo? Probably not much.

I used to do that too Empress. You'd get a reply back saying something like 'yes me too, we'll keep an eye on it,' or 'all looks fine to us, it's a long term poster' etc.

Back when it were all fields here and Mumsnet was still a community

I will lure you in. Even if I have to make it myself

Can I come?

I'm another one with the spidey sense. There are times when there's nothing I can put my finger on but something just makes me feel twitchy, & I'll report saying so.

HQ used to encourage that. RebeccaMumsnet wrote a song about it FFS. Something like "If you don't know what to do, Click on report & tell MNHQ." Not any more?

David and Caroline chat

We're not to discuss it on MN

What actually happened with
David and Caroline? I'm away from home and only popping in occasionally. Can someone PM me if we aren't supposed to rehashing it all on other threads?

Thank you for your assistance earlier, Iris.

I have had some very helpful individual responses.

I can't work out Reddit at all. 🙁 I tried. So I will just stay here and probably get another deleted thread in my TIO !

Have also gone to Reddit. There should be a pinned post on sitestuff where HQ could put up an explanation why a thread has been deleted.
I feel desperately sorry for all those drawn in by the capital letters thread over a period of months. Glad I only posted one message of condolence, and put a couple of quid in my local hospice collection.

Just adding my comment so I get this in TIO for MNHQs eventual reply after discussion.

I will try Margotsdevil I have only just worked out how to use mumsnet so can't believe I have managed to set myself up on Reddit !!! Never pm anyone before don't know if you can do it from app but I will try. The set up different on Reddit app but seem to be able to communicate without being terrified it will be deleted at any mo !

@poweredbybread would you mind sending me a pm with the link to Reddit please? not for discussion here!

I've had some lovely chats with HQ over the years through reporting trolls

I used to report all the time but I never do anymore, feels like no one reads them.

Yes, I noticed that Polter, it made a refreshing change.
