I am, rantinghousewife, I am.

When I were a lass we used to tell it how it were.....

Oh Hecate, you're not turning into one of those gum sucking old timers who whine about how much better it was 'back in the day', are you?

& i'm annoyed because i am not pissed off from the thread that people are pissed off about that someone deleted not to piss more people off

Arse. Why do I always miss deleted threads?

(obviously before their deletion... Tis inevitable I would miss them once they have already been deleted )

Hecate · 08/01/2008 19:13

No, not with the op! I thought it was a good topic and I wanted to discuss it!

Not the initial thing, but the idea that someone on mn could feel unable to voice their opinion on a subject because they felt - intimidated? Afraid they'd fall out of favour?

Folks should feel free to give their opinion, not feel that if it is not likely to meet with approval they have to sit on their hands.

I think mn could do with a wider range of opinions, everyone claims to think the same way on here and it's getting boring!

I'm pissed off I missed thread pissing people off taht has now been deleted to avoid pissing more people off

FrannyandZooey · 08/01/2008 19:10

what are you pissed off about Hecate?

DrNortherner · 08/01/2008 19:09

What was it about?

ScoobyDoo · 08/01/2008 19:09

It can be deleted if the person who started it requests it to be!

Hecate · 08/01/2008 19:08

Well, it was deleted and I'm a little pissed off, tbh!

Tutter · 08/01/2008 19:08

click 'hide this thread' at the top of the page (on that thread obvs) and pretend it never happened.

The old head-in-the-sand trick.

it might be quicker to go to the thread in question and click on the red exclamation mark on your post, and report it. Think MNHQ respond more quickly that way. HTH
