Because if she has been I would like to know why.

OP posts:
fedupofnamechanging · 07/11/2011 19:44

Why would she be banned?

ItsonlymeMrsDB · 07/11/2011 19:44

Me too. Please.

And why I wasn't.

And why someone else hasn't been too.

Pinot · 07/11/2011 19:44

I am making this a sit-in until we're told.

SITS

BerryLellow · 07/11/2011 19:45

Is this to do with deleted threads? I've just clicked on one and it went poof!

ItsonlymeMrsDB · 07/11/2011 19:45

Oh, sorry, GetOrf.

NO YANBU

Pinot · 07/11/2011 19:45

Oh Sit! as in Dogs.

I amuse myself.

ColdSancerre · 07/11/2011 19:45

I was just reading the other thread. Then it went poof.

I would also like to knowing if she has been banned, because I read the contentious thread also and she did nothing wrong. she was blunt but not rude or insulting.

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 07/11/2011 19:45

Is this over the TLES thread in Doghouse? DBF was only defending herself from what I saw.

DooinMeCleanin · 07/11/2011 19:46

Yanbu. She did nothing wrong on that thread. She made no personal attacks against the op.

wordfactory · 07/11/2011 19:46

If she was banned over the dogknapping thread then I think that's seriously poor.
She was pretty measured, offered advice and help and only called the OP on lies she could prove.

What's the problem with that?

It was getorfs fault she mentioned she mamazon who must not be named out loud and the deatheaters came and poofed the thread Hmm Wink

I think hq could give us a yay or nay as to whether she'll be returning

toboldlygo · 07/11/2011 19:47

I only popped out to feed the animals and managed to miss the whole thing. Anyone do me a summary? Will be raging if she has been banned for no reason.

FabbyChic · 07/11/2011 19:47

Why would she be banned she is a nice poster.

ItsonlymeMrsDB · 07/11/2011 19:48

Pinot 'sits' !

Do you normally stand to type, my lovely ? Grin

mummynoseynora · 07/11/2011 19:48

if this is that TLES thread thats madness.... unless TLES has been banned too?! DBF was defending herself and being stern with the OP - who clearly needed it!

LeBOF · 07/11/2011 19:48

YANBU

I am not posting anywhere else until we find out.

MNHQ, please reconsider and sort this out. Surely you can see this is ridiculous? And why was the other thread deleted? I was going to say this is getting a bit Stasi-like, but I really think its more serious than that:

it is more like netmums Sad

Pinot · 07/11/2011 19:49

DB, nooooo. I perch. :o

SecretNutellaFix · 07/11/2011 19:49

MNHQ, please can you answer us and not delete us this time?

Can I just ask why you don't just give a reason

"We have suspended X's account for y number of days/ permanently because of personal attacks/ trolling/ abusive language and behaviour/ we think they're a twat"

Or "X has had to go to the naughty step for y days because she needs to think about her behaviour"

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 07/11/2011 19:50

I don't always agree witht he way that DBF gets her point across, but in this instance she was really rather restrained. Other people were far more venomous, and lots of us (yep, I said us) showed our frustration with TLES and the attention seeking.

wordfactory · 07/11/2011 19:50

DBF was frankly pretty measured on that thread.

The OP was quite clearly about to do something with her dog that wasn't well thoguht through.
She was advised not to do it. Offered help how not to do it.

But she doesn't even need to think about her behaviour. She did nothing wrong. I read the whole thread up until MNHQ said they were deleting and she made no personal attack at all. She just criticised TLES actions.

PersonalClown · 07/11/2011 19:51

Is there room for my ample backside, a Staffy and a Doodle??

winnybella · 07/11/2011 19:51

Perhaps MNHQ are reading through that thread now to see whether the banning of DBF was warranted or not?
