Harry and Meghan are expecting their second child

[Standrewsschool]

Wishing them all the best

if I'm online and think it's unfair, yes.

That sounds exhausting.

In saying that, I’ve never seen you pop up on the many trump/boris/sturgeon/Katie price/Caroline flack/holly and Phil threads over the years and they definitely contain some terrible comments.

I am pleased for them too, we may even share a due date. I don’t mean them any harm I just find the royal family immensely entertaining, like a lot of people do.

I’ve never seen you pop up on the many trump

Are you serious? I do not like Trump so wouldn't be defending him if that's what you mean. Nor Boris.

But bear in mind, we are on thread no. 126, threads that have been running before Trump won the pres. nomination and I, and many others, have been on them for nearly 5 years.

I will make a point, just for you, in keeping an eye open for holly/phil threads, I don't get the hate for those two.

Exhausting? not sure what you mean. People on MN post far far more than I do.
I feel your comments are getting a bit personal to be honest.

What is a SCOLD ? I have never read or heard it .

Congratulations!

Just heard my NDN's DD had a little baby girl today, looking foward to hearing more details about the name etc.

I think M and H will have a little girl, I can’t wait for the name threads, but you will have to be prepared for people not liking the name Roussette.

stairway I am more than prepared because of course they won't!

Certain people don't like anything they do ever!

I do not like Trump

And that’s ok. Just like people don’t like the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, that’s ok too.

Horses for courses. But you don’t seem to accept it that way. If someone says I don’t like the Duchess because X, you’ll be quick to say but hold on, what about Y or when some other Duchess also did X.

I don’t think it’s personal to try and understand a poster’s motivations. Especially one as prolific as you on these threads.

I appreciate you explaining it but I do struggle to understand your motivation.

M&H are not in the position that Trump was. His actions affect the whole world, has affected the world. From climate change, to the ME, to Israel/Palestine, to healthcare for Americans, to destroying the trust by his allies in the EU, and so on...

A tad different to Meghan and Harry do you not think?

On the X and Y, of course. That is where the unfairness comes from. You know the sort of thing, it's been on these threads enough. Different criteria for them than others.

I don’t think it’s personal to try and understand a poster’s motivations

I do.

I wouldn't dream of questioning you on the threads you go on and asking why you do this but not that...
I expect the difference is... I don't name change unlike a lot of posters from the past, from elsewhere... it's easy to start again isn't it?

I haven't NCd, so at least I stand by my posts.

No I think it’s personal taste, some people like Trump (enter any other much discussed celeb here) and might be upset by others disliking him but it doesn’t mean they get to shut down the conversation.

Is your motivation on these threads to never have a bad word said against the couple? Or to get rid of the threads? Obviously you’re free not to answer if you find that question too personal.

How can you even remember what @Roussette posted on any other threads. Why do you care so much?

Trump is politics not just personal taste

Your second para, neither of those stupid assumptions. I have explained why endlessly above. Bullying/injustice/unfairness/lies etc etc

I have no idea what your motivation is in questioning me so closely and persistantly as to why and where I post. I presume you are a poster of old having a dig, and so I'm ignoring from now on.

Back to the thread title...

Because Sparkling it's a NCer.

All very pathetic

Hi folks

Can we not question the intentions of other posters? It's not really in the spirit of the site, and it's derailing the thread.

@Roussette

Because Sparkling it's a NCer. All very pathetic

I think you have a stalker...

I have spoken up for famous people on here quite a bit. People don't like it for some reason.

Thanks LilyMumsnet I appreciate that.

All very pathetic

Is this not you guessing my motivations? Which you’re against?

Bullying/injustice/unfairness/lies

And isn’t that you guessing other posters motivations?

As I said, I’m trying to understand where you’re coming from. I’d ask any other defenders but I haven’t seen another poster pop up as frequently as you do. You don’t like me asking so I’ll stop.

Sparkling I know!

I'm being monitored as to where I post though

Yes thank you @LilyMumsnet I don’t like my intentions being questioned when I’ve explained them clearly.

@Chocolo

Yes thank you *@LilyMumsnet* I don’t like my intentions being questioned when I’ve explained them clearly.

Yet you were interrogating @Roussette.

You've been asked to stop Chocolo so just do that.

Really @Sparklingbrook? Interrogating? How ridiculous.

@Chocolo

Yes thank you *@LilyMumsnet* I don’t like my intentions being questioned when I’ve explained them clearly.

Whoosh

@Roussette I did say that in my post:

You don’t like me asking so I’ll stop.

@Chocolo

Really *@Sparklingbrook*? Interrogating? How ridiculous.

Yes it is ridiculous interrogating another poster over why they post. You are correct.
