Apologies if this has been asked before but I'm intrigued.

MNHQ, do you have someone whose specific job is to monitor forum topics? Either for the purposes of "mob control" when things get a bit heated or to make a note of topics which you feel should be highlighted in the press/for campaigns etc?

Do you have seperate, "normal" user names and participate on the forums just as any of the rest of us might or are you not allowed to?

What's the best and the worst thing about the job you do, particularly those of you we see on here such as OliviaMN, Justine, Rebecca et al?

Darn it, I need to go to bed. Shock

OliviaMumsnet · 14/10/2011 22:26

MmeL - who is in the frog suit?! Justine doing a fun run?!

DogsBeastFiend · 14/10/2011 22:26

Still lost, cosmologist, though some might say that's nowt new and is just as well. :o

I always envisage it like <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=absolutely+fabulous&um=1&hl=en&client=safari&sa=N&tbo=d&tbm=isch&tbnid=NeUMQ9Ej8N0ZWM:&imgrefurl=uktv.co.uk/gold/item/aid/528040&docid=ZgQdFansL4L8fM&imgurl=uktv.co.uk/images/standarditem/L1/528040_L1.jpg&w=190&h=190&ei=rKiYTsK9BILY8QPjstjQBQ&zoom=1&biw=1024&bih=690" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this...

I did find a pic of the American Momsnet office.

Purplebuns · 14/10/2011 22:27

Look man!

DogsBeastFiend · 14/10/2011 22:27

Now you're being silly, Olivia. You should know that "fun" and "run" don't belong in the same sentence. :)

lord can you imagine being paid to MN all day?

I'll have you know I have spent the last 8 hours twiddling cervixes and spreading goo over a vast area.

I know which I'd rather be doing.

MmeLindor. · 14/10/2011 22:28

Olivia
It is Justine modelling the latest Philip Treacy for Boden

BellaDonnaSansMerci · 14/10/2011 22:28

Grin at Justine doing a Fun Run...

babycham42 · 14/10/2011 22:28

Ha TalcandTurnips that's exactly like my little mind has always pictured HQ,like the control centre of a nuclear bunker.

NOOOOOOOO!!!!! Hungrydragon!!

BellaDonnaSansMerci · 14/10/2011 22:29

I am frequently paid to MN all day... Of course, my employer doesn't necessarily know this.

DogsBeastFiend · 14/10/2011 22:29

Cervix, I always wondered why you chose that moniker. I wish I'd remained unenlightened!

HowlmoaneeChainClanger · 14/10/2011 22:29

BellaDonnaSansMerci - So which one are you suggesting is Olivia?

cosmologist · 14/10/2011 22:29

OTW is "one to watch" ie how MNHQ mark a thread (amongst themselves) which has the potential to go wrong and needs close observation.

BoscoWillHauntYourDreams · 14/10/2011 22:30

I hope you got paid for that cervix its a pretty unusual hobby.....

BellaDonnaSansMerci · 14/10/2011 22:31

Pats

KouklaWhooooo · 14/10/2011 22:31

Hilarious pics - I've often wondered about 'behind the scenes in the MN museum'... what happens when a comment/thread is deleted - do the HQ'ers all [gasp] read and discuss?? Do they look at your history?

TalcAndTurnips · 14/10/2011 22:31

MNHQ canteen - soup of the day is oxtail.

LeBOOOf · 14/10/2011 22:32

Trills, I'm sure there is a NikitaTech.
