I have tried to stay out of this, having got all my grief out in the early days of this revelation, but I just wanted to post to say to see Dior, as we know her anyway, leaving MN. How will your friends know you in your new guise? I couldn't even recognise you in your Christmas name!

I admit I have made some new friends here since Christmas, but I still feel I am missing even more.

I can't see why not tbh.

I thought your main point was that you have made RL friends with some posters who you now think may have gone behind your back.

Wow my post just disappeared into thin air so i will try again:

I dont think anyone is saying that Moldies cannot post on MN anymore

But it is interesting that you would feel sad if you couldnt, as i guess that how those excluded from Moldies feel, sad that they are not allowed to post along with their friends and people who they have been chatting with for years on MN

Its a bit like saying your not allowed to post on MN anymore, as it is now private now and your not allowed in

Thank you fairlady!

FairLadyRantALot · 05/01/2009 16:10

daftpunk, Fio actually said that she has discussed rather personal issues, like vaginal warts, on mumsnet....
or that is how I understood that post...

Tortington · 05/01/2009 16:08

but why would i POSSIBLY do that mercy?

fifio; i'm genuinely sorry you felt you couldn't discuss your warts on mumsnet...i really am.

FairLadyRantALot · 05/01/2009 16:04

Awww Elliot...I can see you {grin]

Mercy · 05/01/2009 16:03

I think you made an interesting point earlier Fio.

Perhaps anyone who is upset or angry should contact those Mners that you have met or made friends with in RL and whom you believe to be a member of Moldies.

FairLadyRantALot · 05/01/2009 16:03

tbh, I would think it would be a shame if anyone would feel they can't post anymore...moldie or not moldie....
I just wondered how you would have felt....iykwim

dior I saw all your posts had gone - I was searching for something innocuous like advice about kitchen appliances and found a thread that was practically all deleted posts - you, cod, someone else I think - it made me very sad that such harmless (but useful!) threads had been decimated...
I'm also sad if Soupy has gone.

But I think I'm going to revise my opinion of myself - its not so much that I don't have much of a presence, I have realised I am in fact invisible

responsible, Flight

Flightattendant7 · 05/01/2009 15:48

fio, I shan't be searching your posts, unless you get misquoted by a few people and there is a WRONG WORD in it and in that case sorry but i shan't be rsponsible for my actions

daftpunk · 05/01/2009 15:46

this is a parenting forum...do you join and fall in love with everyone? i can see how the moldies thing has annoyed people...but no one that has anything to do with that site has come out looking that good (imo)..

they are trying to recreate the past...you can't...times change, people move on....and as for a small site being safer (and i'd hardly call 150 small) would you walk into a room with 150 people and complain about the size of your patners dick? no, so i can't see how you would discuss really personal stuff even on the moldies site..

time to move on...it's a new year...let's forget about it.

is tomorrow the 12th night

I would like to thank Geraldine for deleting all my posts. I'm sure I was being paranoid, but I have posted a lot of personal information on here in the past. I am still going to be here (for those of you who have asked on MN or via email) but may have a different name in future posts.

This whole debacle has taught me a big lesson - no more personal posts. Oh yes, no bad swearing or papers will quote you, despite the majority of your posts being supportive .

Finally, this whole thing is now just getting on my nerves in a big way. I miss all the old posters on here. I don't think they made the place bitchy - there has been a fair amount of bitching in the last two weeks without them. OK, so some found them overbearing, but I didn't. I'm big and ugly enough to stand up for myself.

That is not to say that new posters won't come along with personalities just as big and funny to fill the gap. So, while some of us continue to vent their spleen and get some weird kudos for doing so from the new 'gang', I would urge the site to become its calm and serene self again soon.

Like Soupy, until it does, I will be posting no more. I'm sure that won't worry a lot of you, but it WILL worry me.

Happy New Year!

Agree with you vtits - I find it much more reasonable. The moldies aspect explains why some threads just went crazy and there were many insults & much awfulness.

randomcupsoftea · 05/01/2009 15:19

Flightattendant - your quotes where interesting and, imho, fit in well with the debate.

Custardo - it's not fair on you. I think you deserve some answers.

I think the name should change from moldie to othersiter or whatever. Not all oldies are moldies.
