This thread is a continuation of this one. That one had become too big for its own boots the system to handle.

twinset - please spill contents of lovenote or was it rude ?

Biscuits - I think there's a lot to be said for getting over it. I've followed these threads from the start and felt upset and cross about the whole Moldies thing - but I'm a hell of a lot more upset now but what's happening here.

People - you are never going to post yourselves back to the state you were in before Moldiegate - but if we don't move on - all of us - without anybody getting off the bus a few stops early! We will all lose.

In the last two days I've posted on a thread trying to support a woman who has delivered her cherished child 13 weeks early. I've posted on a thread for a woman who was googling information to help her husband care for his dying mother in a country where there was no palliative care and I've been posting on another thread asking for prayers for a mother - just like us - who was critically ill. Right now I'm posting on a thread for a woman whose husband appears to be abusing her.

So get your arses off this thread and go to bed or go and do something else because we have all sat here far too long to do any good.

OK, about the wiki thing - there was initially a humourous paragraph about Rhubs & Custy which I believe Rhubs posted - the one at 13.53. Someone posted a link to it - by the time I read it, the second bit about 'up their own arses' was there (posted 16.36).
A few minutes later the third bit, about Peachy appeared.

I went into the history and deleted the second two bits. I left the first one because it seemed harmless.

When I went to complete the delete, I was told that someone else was editing at the same time - as far as I could see the other edit was the same as mine, ie deleting the two second parts but leaving the original paragraph, so I pressed save - so I don't actually know whether it was deleted by me or someone else, but I think it was the other person because I am registered on Wikipedia & it would have given my details, not an ip address.

When I went back to the other thread, Peachy was on it saying she had written the bit about herself as a joke - I didn't realise it was her at first, as she's changed her name

About half an hour later, someone else deleted the original paragraph.

controlfreakyhohohohohohoho · 01/01/2009 23:52

TWINSETinapeartree · 01/01/2009 23:51

Hunker, sorry I got distracted - will explain Nestle reference tomorrow,
it's all a bit frantic tonight and I am knackered.

MT, you are having a very good thread. In general agreement with your posts.
Black Russians obviously working their magic.

Good night and, of course, Happy New Year

TotalChaos · 01/01/2009 23:51

No, peachy only added the bit about herself - not about rhuby and custy .

Biscuits4cheese · 01/01/2009 23:50

oh, oh! I get what you mean now
I'm now considering 'LoveNote' as my next name!

LedodgyChristmasjumper · 01/01/2009 23:50

No peachy only wrote the part about herself not the other stuff! It was a joke. I don't know who wrote the other stuff about Rhubarb and Custardo but I know it wasn't Peachy!

Biscuits4cheese · 01/01/2009 23:49

Not especially Twin, i dont think.

Aitch · 01/01/2009 23:49

exactly, mt.

controlfreakyhohohohohohoho · 01/01/2009 23:48

IF it was peachy then perhaps it reflects the real dismay and hurt she posted on here about...... perhaps.

LedodgyChristmasjumper · 01/01/2009 23:48

Just to lighten the mood slightly I thought i'd let you all know that my dp is only letting me follow this thread as long as I sit on his knee and he can grope my norks. The things I have to do for you lot!

Monkeytrousers · 01/01/2009 23:48

oh, stop the 'moldie' witch hunts for god sake. Have non of you heard of McCarthy?!

Biscuits4cheese · 01/01/2009 23:48

"embarassing, navel-gazing, pathetic", etc...all pretty much meaning 'get over it'.

Monkeytrousers · 01/01/2009 23:47

B4C, lots of non moldies have posted the same, to be fair

TWINSETinapeartree · 01/01/2009 23:47

Biscuits4cheese do I know you?

BALD · 01/01/2009 23:47

Yes things do get twisted. I am that it was Peachy who did that to the wiki entry, and too.

Even custy thought it was a 'moldy add on'.

D'you all see how the stirring riles everyone, and that it's not all one-sided either.

NotanOtter · 01/01/2009 23:46

a appreciate you Smilie!

TWINSETinapeartree · 01/01/2009 23:46

I am lost.

Monkeytrousers · 01/01/2009 23:46

controlfreakyhohohohohohoho · 01/01/2009 23:46

Biscuits4cheese · 01/01/2009 23:46
