And if not, it looks as though I've hidden it. Can anyone tell me how to unhide it?

I've not really posted on the Royal Family board in the last couple of days because of the influx of 'new posters', and the arrival of yet more bots (some of which were fairly sophisticated).

Other comments, no matter how genuine and heartfelt, were simply against Talk Guidelines.

I wouldn't blame MNHQ for trying to sort it all out.

Having said that, threads will now pop up all over the rest of the site, esp in AIBU and Chat.

I just clicked on the ‘does anyone know Meghan in real life’ thread. It didn’t work. Refreshed the home page and then saw this.

Buckingham Palace have started a revolution haha. Even if the RF thread never comes back. People will just talk about it AIBU, Chat etc. We’ll never get away from this topic lol

Don’t care about Harry or the Royals but now hugely invested in MN losing the topic down the side of the sofa.

I'm curious about this too - I'm assuming that they're having database load issues.

The pages have been struggling, and threads have been maxing out very quickly.

Yes seems to have been stopped - shall we just continue on this thread then? Where were you at?

Oy! Don't get my thread deleted before MNHQ have explained what's happening.

I mean literally any time a poster says William is clearly violent, judging from the accounts in the book, they get posters (palace plants?) shouting at them IN CAPITAL LETTERS LIKE THAT.

Thank Christ for that.

I had hidden the topic last week and unhid it this morning to check it was still appalling (it was). I re-hid it. I've just checked and it's not in my list of hidden topics - it has gone. Does this mean the UK is a republic now?

To be fair, it really was going through a bit of a shoddy patch. It's normally fairly quiet but good for history, facts and watch-alongs.

Oh yes please to republic.

Mumsnet winning for free speech again (not). This is like the FWR pages all over again.

I wanted to understand the Camilla stuff - was this just on the AC interview or is it in the book?

It will be William at work not Harry. A few too many posters not fawning sufficiently.

Doesn't appear to be William who cries about what's written of him?

Fgs people, if you’re not going to kiss the arse of the Dook and Dookess of Montecito it’s off to tattle with you!

So now threads will be started on all the other boards and all the Harrys whiners will be moaning about that too 😂

Ah, yes, I haven't hidden it. Oh, that's a shame, it was the only thing really keeping me here. The reddit sub is rubbish.

It’s gone.

Big Brother has decided…

ArseInTheDogBowl · 09/01/2023 17:57

Well we are talking about an incredibly litigious man after all...

Ooops!!! 😁

Has The Royal topic been disappeared?
DogBowlsAreMyWeapon · 09/01/2023 17:56

Not sure it’s Buck House at work - the royal WhatsApp group has been on fire with the memes. 😂

Blossomtoes · 09/01/2023 17:55

I can’t find it either. And all the threads have disappeared from I’m on.

teapotfullofsquash · 09/01/2023 17:55

I can't see anything on the royal topic. Tells me to refresh the page for every thread 🤷🏻‍♀️
