They are in AIBU

Seriously considering my posting here now I think.

Sevenfold · 21/11/2011 16:22

i have started a thread in sit stuff. that is bad

Tianc · 21/11/2011 16:22

Mmm. Interesting.

We've had Eon or some other power company on here with vv helpful info wrt the Warm Home scheme (or whatever this year's name is).

And someone turned up from Ryvita once, to say talk about which side to butter...

How good/bad, is it that someone from the DfE should be using MN to be helpful with info about eg helplines?

Not sure how I feel about that.

But not even the teensiest bit surprised they read ? 'tis a free focus group, innit?

entropygirl · 21/11/2011 16:24

oohhhhh. will you look at that! Wow. Don't go Peachy!

Peachy · 21/11/2011 16:24

I don;t mind them starting info topics etc but if they post in AIBU then they are openly reading it all. And presumably DWP reads SN?

Peachy · 21/11/2011 16:25

I will see Entropy.

WorraLiberty · 21/11/2011 16:28

How does anyone know they are who they say they are and not just 'anyone' using that nickname? Confused

Peachy · 21/11/2011 16:30

they don't worra
though they link to their own stuff a lot

Something companies have to pay for: see the PFI doesn't extend to them then...

Sevenfold · 21/11/2011 16:30

well you can't call your self rev*** and give advice so can't see why that name would be allowed

Well it's easy enough to find out Peachy

Just contact them here and send them a link

I'm sure they'll verify or not.

Not my job, hence reported to MHQ

yars ago a reverend posted on MN s Seven says and had to prove her qualifications and everything on pain of banning.

WorraLiberty · 21/11/2011 16:34

Maryz I've only had a 5 minute look but everything they've posted is available on Google anyway.

It could be anyone. Have MNHQ not checked them out?

WorraLiberty · 21/11/2011 16:34

But you'd rather flounce leave than fire off a quick email to them?

Worra, why are you telling other people to go round firing off emails? DIY, ya lazy mare! Wink

WorraLiberty · 21/11/2011 16:45

Because Titanic I personally couldn't give a shiny shite if it's them or not

Peachy however does as she's thinking of not posting anymore Wink

That said, I just have anyway Smile

Peachy · 21/11/2011 16:47

Worra I have enver ever said I would flounce

If I chose to decide my time was up and vanished quietly that however would be my call.

As it happens I am awaiting a response from MN.
