Well hopefully the title says it all. There's been a suggestion, and we agree, that as we did with Baby P and the Mc Canns we just have one thread where anyone who feels they still have anything to add on this subject can post and those who'd rather move on can hide it away.

It feels strange to put this thread in site stuff as we are definitely not wanting to encourage further discussion of Moldies (we have presents to wrap too you know ) but we weren't sure where else to put it.

We will delete any new Moldies threads that are started, so please feel free to report them in case we miss any (what with wrapping the presents and all...)

And if you do want to carry on the discussion please remember that Mumsnet's here to make everyone's lives easier and not the reverse, and that Christmas is a time of goodwill to all mumsnetters past, present and future

Thanks,
MNHQ

WHy have the old ones gone, given that they had by now reached capacity. They could have just sat there in chat for the next 90 days and would not have stlill been in active convos?

WalkinginWaynettaWonderland · 23/12/2008 13:49

I lie, the 1000+is still there

WalkinginWaynettaWonderland · 23/12/2008 13:49

Nope - looks like they're all gone.

This is like a scab....I want to ignore it but I can't.

morningpaper · 23/12/2008 13:48

it will just be new threads surely

otherwise rumour mill will start all over again ad infinitum

VinegarTitsTheSeasonToBeJolly · 23/12/2008 13:46

I thought it was just any new Moldie threads that get created from now, that get deleted

Tortington · 23/12/2008 13:37

VinegarTitsTheSeasonToBeJolly · 23/12/2008 13:15

MOLDIES = Mumsnet Ordinary Ladies In Elite Self-righteous groups

flowerytaleofNewYork · 23/12/2008 13:14

flowerytaleofNewYork · 23/12/2008 13:11

[clueless obviously missing something emoticon]

foxytocin · 23/12/2008 13:09

i prefer the idea of locked over deleted.

NotanOtter · 23/12/2008 13:08

NorktasticNinja · 23/12/2008 13:05

Why not just increase the limit now Tech? Y' know your going to have to do it anyway...

Or maybe it'll just stop

UnfortunatelyMe · 23/12/2008 13:04

Ohh what was said on the other thread? Even with my original name noone would know me.
I just wanted to know if with all the outting whether the moldies would have to have a yellow star new to their name

WhileShosheWatchedHerFlocks · 23/12/2008 13:03

I'm so glad its been put into one thread, as for some of us, it is the most boring subject and we dont want to have to see loads of threads,

Thank you Carrie.

(You do know I always picture you are Carrie Grant dont you )

BrilliantDisguise · 23/12/2008 13:02

VS- sorry- I explained my position on the other thread- hope you read it before it was deleted as I don't think I could put it quote as well again....
I am not trolling. That thread was the first time I had commented on moldies.
