I’m getting really fed up of my posts being deleted.

I say nothing inflammatory. No rascism, no sexism, no xenophobia. Because that is not me, I would never.

So why are my posts being deleted? I’m adding to the discussion. Sometimes I may question if a pp is being deliberately stupid… is that a legitimate reason to be deleted?

How thin skinned are we supposed to be to use this website? It’s becoming pointless even bothering to make a post.

I made a genuine post about about how knife crime is a serious problem within major cities. Low & behold, it’s been deleted. I made some genuine points in the post, ones that could lead to a positive discussion. I’m starting to give up on MN, no other website is policed to this extent.

I agree that hate crimes should be deleted. Of course. But I have done nothing of the sort.

You know what bullying is?
Bullying is the use of force, coercion, hurtful teasing, comments, or threats, in order to abuse, aggressively dominate, or intimidate one or more others. The behavior is often repeated and habitual.

No one has done this in the comments to op. It’s Op that is telling people to “fuck off” and is using hurtful and aggressive language.

Oh behave. I am not a bully. We all reach the end our rope.
I’m honestly not sure what else I’m suppose to do to appease you strangers on the internet?

You keep saying you understand and you're sorry, then you double down and start justifying yourself again.

Because it’s just pandering

Oh just stop, this is turning into bullying now, the OP has apologised, you have laid into her enough on this thread, maybe reflect on your own online behaviour before berating others.

Yes, that's been established over 9 pages.
I've been ignorant and had a go at @WellingtonBootilicious but they can't do anything more than they've done to apologise.

I don't think anybody would question their deleted posts knowing they'd face a 9 page pile on.
Some of us may have not used the word stupid, it's certainly been implied though.

Let @WellingtonBootilicious get some rest. They haven't committed a crime. I was guilty by assumption and then read it was only 2 posts.
We can't all be hardcore rule breakers. Often we're not. Sometimes a poster if offended will get a little trigger happy with that report button. Wankers.

Lets let @WellingtonBootilicious get some rest now. She's learned thd hard way that you don't ask if someone is stupid. I've seen much worse.
Calling people mental - see above. You can choose to be offended or you can give no shits.

I'm giving no shits.

You’re a lovely soul ❤️
I am off to get some rest with my tail firmly between my legs.

I thought you meant me then. I can be a vicious cow but I'm happy to admit when I'm talking to myself on a zombie thread (old people's AI)

However...! Yes, that was some link from the depths of Google. Like wheeling your ignorant granny out.

haha no just jumping on the back of your response - it was very random though from OP

So? I’m obviously not a menace otherwise I wouldn’t still be here. Like I say, I used a clunky sentence on the internet, I’m not evil fgs.

You’ve had numerous posts deleted, why do you think that is? From one clunky sentence on the internet? I don’t think so. You told someone to fuck off further up in the thread.

TheBig50 · 23/05/2025 01:07

Anyway, I should have been in bed 7 minutes ago, so I shall bid thee all a calmded downded night.

WellingtonBootilicious · 23/05/2025 00:51

Well, yes. They will know who I am. Name change or not. I’ve been here well over ten years.

This is just silly now. If I knew I could’ve got in touch with mn another way then I wouldn’t have bothered with a post on here.
But clearly I’m a bit daft!

Are you daft?!!

You don't need to get in touch. They'll be in your inbox if there's a problem.

Apparently. 🤣

Asking if someone is stupid is patronising, rude and unnecessary. No wonder your hate speech is being deleted, I’m just utterly shocked that you felt entitled enough in your attitude to make this thread questioning the normal consequences to your quite rude approach.

Perhaps try not to sarcastically ask if someone is stupid and your post won’t be deleted due to bullying.

You are a twat = personal attack
Are you a twat? = not a personal attack as such but is inflammatory

I can’t see the difference tbh. The second item implies the first: the answer to the question is assumed.

No, she’s admitted she’s named changed and had more than two post deleted over the years… can’t remember though. Doesn’t keep track. Could 4 posts could be 400.

MN keep track of usernames. They look at reported posts and they will message and ban you.
I've been on the receiving end of a temp ban.
They're not going to let Welly Boots through for shits and giggles.

I see it as a North v South issue.

Where I’m from we call a spade a spade and will be blunt, but perfectly honest and clear.

However, a lot of southerners take offence as they’d rather ‘tell little white lies’ than actually speak honestly with someone and tell them what the problem really is.

Luckily, just like in real life, we can choose to ignore them. 😂

This is pretty racist against southerners

From what I have read - you have had 2 posts deleted.
You're still posting.
You haven't been banned.
Not everyone is going to agree with you though, decapitated or not.
I'd rather not.

is that enough for you?

And maybe don’t tell people to fuck off.

But is the word stupid so insulting? That’s what I’m struggling to grasp. It’s just a descriptive word for someone who isn’t getting what I mean?
