expatinscotland · 01/06/2008 22:39

Sorry you feel that way, narked, but if just one thread provokes such an intense reaction, then, i would explore other venues, too.

Best of luck!

OMG the ego has landed.

Can't there just be a topic called "Ending it all" with this disclaimer at the top:

Threads started in here may be serious, they may be sickfucks trolls, either way, MNHQ reserves the right to deal with them as they see fit, either by tracking down the OP with medical help, ignoring them entirely if eg Loose Women is on or posting their previous names for everyone else to discuss. We would be grateful if posters didn't munch popcorn whilst reading threads in this topic, because it is unbecoming.

maidamess · 01/06/2008 22:37

Cod your first few posts were telling everyone what to say, were they not?

CodofConduct · 01/06/2008 22:37

rololl up roll up

narkedagain · 01/06/2008 22:36

agree with you Expat. But posts like "its my thread fgs
geta grip "
just say to me " even if you're suicidal, if you're not in my inner circle, you're not welcome here"

Time to look out a new parenting forum, methinks.

daftpunk · 01/06/2008 22:36

i dont think coming on here and making jokes is in good taste ... do you?

Janni · 01/06/2008 22:36

Yes, that is a very valid point from Franny.

So how can we ensure that people feel they will be heard and supported when they are feeling wretched, whilst not thinking there'll be a real life rescue mission mounted should they genuinely harm themselves?

CodofConduct · 01/06/2008 22:35

just cos you haevnt got your own t shirts to sell

CodofConduct · 01/06/2008 22:35

i may well be but oyu ahev no right to tell me what to say

so arse

expatinscotland · 01/06/2008 22:34

Then do so, Pink. Others have stated that they do not feel comfortable giving advice or what have you to someone who is not just in need of support, but in a life-threatening situation, and that does not make them uncaring, heartless people.

daftpunk · 01/06/2008 22:34

its my thread...oh ffs...cod you're the biggest attention seeker on mn.

I could never not respond to someone who is obviously struggling and in need of support.

OK, will drop off this thread, quite clearly don't understand what's going on here. But personally, will know not to turn to MN in my bleakest moments.

expatinscotland · 01/06/2008 22:31

berolina speaks truth.

expatinscotland · 01/06/2008 22:30

narked, it is not anyone's role aside from a moderator's to dictate to others how they should post and if you read the entire thread there are quite a few flippant posts unrelated to the topic.

it happens often, but mostly, the self-moderation system works.

berolina · 01/06/2008 22:29

There should have been a However... before 'I am beginning to get' etc.

I agree, Boco, with every word.

This has been a thread which has gone some way towards restoring my recently rather shaken faith in MN.

I am beginning to get slightly tired of the (apparently wilful) misrepresentations of those of us who have concerns about these sorts of threads as uncaring. I have found it incredibly difficult tbh to have been accused of lacking empathy and a phobic attitude to MH issues. I don't want to go into my experience now - I hinted at it further down. I certainly have posted a lot in other situations offering help through shared experience.
