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

OP posts:

I wish I could personally make it all better

hey, elton john is on tonight...

Rhubarb · 31/12/2008 18:40

Ah right, I guess I had turned off at that stage, it all got a bit much and a bit heated.

Well good on those who had the balls to apologise - that was very big and took guts.

Flihgtattendant · 31/12/2008 18:39

Oops sorry quench i mucked up your effort a bit there

Flihgtattendant · 31/12/2008 18:38

It's fair enough to let it all out rhuby.

But there were quite a few apologies from various people, saying sorry that people felt so hurt, etc etc

I'm not just on about the personal ones
ones on the threads

I'm so sorry you are feeling rotten too x (am not a moldie btw)

TheMoistWorldOfSeptimusQuench · 31/12/2008 18:36

I have nowt to say on this subject, but seem to be VG at killing threads atm

And that's why I am posting here

Rhubarb · 31/12/2008 18:29

I'm sorry, I never saw apologies. In fact I don't even know who you are, so apologies again.

However you were not one of the posters I was thinking of. Can I ask, and you don't have to answer, but have you now left Moldies and if not, why not?

Like I said, you don't have to answer.

And I'm not bashing, I'm being open and honest with my feelings. I'm not personally attacking anyone here, just sharing thoughts with others equally affected.

BALD · 31/12/2008 18:27

Rhubarb I cannot let that last post go unchallenged

I for one aplogised for the hurt caused, shame that you have forgotten that in your festival of moldie bashing

Rhubarb · 31/12/2008 18:20

I entirely agree with controlfreaky. I thought I could get over it, I honestly did. Lord knows I did try!

But the irony of them telling us how to improve Mumsnet is just all too much.

I feel that I can't trust anyone. I feel that I don't want to talk about my family because I don't want people reading personal info about me, knowing that they can go away and post in their own little safe environments.

I don't know if they will be recruiting anymore Mumsnet members. I get the feeling that they will wait until the dust has settled and then start sending out invites again.

I think it's actually upset me more than I had realised. So I probably shouldn't post anymore on the subject until I feel more able to deal with it rationally.

It would have been better if they had acknowledged the hurt they had caused and apologised. But there has been none of that.

On the upside - I did try to get to see a GP about my bot, but there were no laaaadies available and I'm sorry but I ain't showing my arse to a man! (I could never go in for bumsex!) However I did call NHS Direct and they were very nice and said I would prob only be prescribed a steroid cream anyway. So I have been shoving ice cubes up my bot and it has definitely shrunk!

BigGitLovesMulledWineDad · 31/12/2008 16:37

Franny, thats where I have gone wrong all my life, just not firm enough! Take that as you will!

BigGitLovesMulledWineDad · 31/12/2008 16:35

FA, I'm a married man! Though that has not stopped people on here in the past!

foxytocin · 31/12/2008 16:34

FrannyandZooey · 31/12/2008 16:27

did anyone else get a little shiver when tech was all firm with us on the other thread?

BigGitLovesMulledWineDad · 31/12/2008 16:01

I wonder who will be the first to post on this thread come the new year! (greenwich mean time) Will there be a prize?

thumbwitch · 31/12/2008 15:20

just wanted to post a comment that I had previously posted on the Lets Talk about Mumsnet thread:
perhaps it would be less mildy inflammatory if people stopped telling us they were moldies? - for those people who are feeling upset/offended that they haven't been invited, each new discovery is just going to add to the misery.

Soon enough we will mostly forget who is a moldy, with some notable exceptions, if they stop talking about it. And then we can all get back to being on mumsnet together.

cupsoftea · 31/12/2008 15:18

I'm not a mouldie!

TheTwelveDAISYofChristmas · 31/12/2008 15:12
