Tattle Life rebrand

Crap forum Tattle Life has changed overnight into 8Cafe.

8Cafe

Hate Cafe

Geddit?!

Nothing says 'I have nothing to hide' quite like changing the whole name and domain of your website.

The man who hides behind this pathetic hate forum (who Olivia Attwood met in real life and described as ugly...exactly what you think a troll would look like) needs to be put in prison for what he has done.

His website has caused at least one suicide that I know of. If he is so proud of it, he should be out there in public giving interviews about it.

The code thing is annoying.

I have 4 threads on there that I follow but I can't join in due to the code.

I've been reading it for 2 years now and it's very frustrating.

FuggoUggo · 21/01/2025 14:37

The thing is with codes, they can see who has sent the code so people are very hesitant as they can get banned if the person they’ve given the code to breaks the rules

i for one love tattle. It calls people out on a lot of shit, mostly influencers and I would 100% say it has nicer posters on than here

CraftyNavySeal · 21/01/2025 14:41

Wonder why they would rename it like 8 Chan

I agree! I only read the Celeb Gossip thread, but whatever the posters might say about the celebs, they're a lot nicer to each other than here...

Not a member of Tattle, but read a few of the threads about influencers from Instagram and think some of the content is spot on tbh and exposes the lies these bloody influencers are spouting. The stuff I've seen is pretty harmless, and just identifies how hypocritical the influencers are (e.g., one week they're saying how AMAZING Product A is and how they use it all the time, then a month later they are promoting competing Product B and insinuating that its SO MUCH BETTER than other products out there (including Product A!). It's all just shite - I get they're in it for the money, but I just wish they were more upfront about it.

Some people truly do believe all the crap that influencers say, so having somewhere to tell the truth and call out all the BS is (IMO) helpful.

There may well be lots of vile trolling threads, but I haven't felt any of the threads I've read are actually bullying or vile.

CitadelofRicks · 21/01/2025 15:10

I get wanting to highlight grifters but a lot of the posts on there are vile. I watch a vlogger on YouTube and really enjoy her content. She’s unproblematic and doesn’t grift, just posts wholesome home/travel vlogs. My god, the things they write about her are awful. They poke fun at her and her husbands weight and even made fun of her dog dying whilst they were on their honeymoon. They seem to genuinely hate her but they never miss an instagram post or YouTube upload. It’s deranged behaviour. I don’t consume the content of anyone I dislike because it seems like a waste of time and energy but they seem to get off on it

CarliLove35 · 21/01/2025 15:15

There are some strangely obsessed posters on the Katie Price thread, and the Alice Evans thread - I actually feel unnerved just looking at those threads, some people are online virtually all day and half the night, scrutinising these women's social media posts and so on.

The non-celeb part, though, the chat forum, is nice and friendly, and there are some lovely posters there. There's no direct messaging facility though, which is a shame.

There are no rules, it's common decency not to judge someone on their looks.

The OP is slating posters on the other forum for labelling (mainly) influencers with disparaging descriptions, yet has no problem referring to the owner (it's not a man who owns the site btw) as ugly.

Registration is open, incidentally, no more begging for codes 😉

I didn't call him ugly, I've no idea what he looks like. I was reporting what Olivia Attwood said about him after seeing him face to face on his doorstep, she said he was hideous and looked like an actual troll.

I think they are boomers who don't have a clue about anything. That was the vibe I used to get.

OP really is a charmer! I do find it odd he/she/they doesn't feel at home on Tattle if it is as they describe.

You must be joking, Tattle is full of people who dish it out but can't take it.

Also it's really hypocritical as most people who are mocked and abused on their own named thread are complimented on others 😂

I also find it sad/disturbing that people seem to spend their lives doing things like driving past Katie Price's or Molly-Mae's house so they can post something on Tattle.

imjusthereforAIBU · 21/01/2025 15:50

I'm on tattle and I like tattle - far more than I like MN. I totally agree that some people and some threads on tattle take things too far. But I still think there is more bullying and belittling of people on MN. Most people who are criticised on tattle have purposefully put themselves in the public eye. The posters who are ripped apart on MN for eating a banana/asking about social housing/needing weight-loss support have not.

I do however dislike the new name and I also think it now sounds like Hate Cafe.

Afaik it was two sisters who started it and one of their boyfriends runs it from their house. Olivia Attwood on her show tracked them down and doorstepped them, that's when she said how ugly and literally troll-like the guy is.

Thought it was sold a while back to a more corp type agency or something, the mods appear and say formal things like "All, please keep the thread on track" when it's about someone who's going viral because they want to keep the ad revenue up.

Thank you for clarifying exactly what kind of person you are.

BlondeMamaToBe · 21/01/2025 17:13

I used to enjoy it purely for the off topic and advice sections but since they keep locking it down I gave up.

AlohaRose · 21/01/2025 18:11

That's weird. It seems to have changed back to Tattle now? Earlier when I read this thread I checked and it had the new name, now it seems to have reverted.

I'm so confused, the thread I was reading was up to page 20 this afternoon and now it's on 17 pages and the last post was 10pm last night, all the posts from this morning have gone.

The Katie Price thread is insane! I’m not a fan but the people wishing her dead are just awful. And don’t get me started on the nonsensical wiki they have on her. I do like the Celeb Gossip thread and the Sallie Axl one was a blast.

Well they're not, are they? They're a bunch of people moaning their arses off. Just like on here.

HenDoNot · 21/01/2025 18:50

The Mumsnet thread on there is brilliant Grin.

I’d love a code to be able to join.

Asvoria · 21/01/2025 19:15

It's a hell of a lot less vicious than this place. I go on there for a rest and to chat to reasonable people. Some of the folk on here'd remove your spleen with their teeth given half the chance 😬

NoodleDoodleDandy · 21/01/2025 19:17

I love Tattle. In all the years I've been on there I've never come across the bitchiness between members thats on here.
When we disagree we do it quite respectfully.

Is Olivia the arbiter of looks? Is the above any different to a post on MNs?
