Where did my thread go??

Last night I posted a thread having a minor rant at benefits and people I know claiming them who probably shouldn't. The only comments I saw were most unconstructive and more concerned at my grammar (can tell I was in a hurry). Now it has gone? Is this a forbidden topic or something?

' who probably shouldn't '

There's your clue....

Was it a bit crap? I think mn are going on a quality control drive.
Netmums are schmoozing Cameron. Mnhq have to raise their game. Shit posts are out.

Benefit threads never end well, so best not to start I think. Wink

Probably shouldn't or shouldn't? Do you know?

What is a "minor rant"?

Sevenfold · 17/02/2012 17:54

why not ask mn hq?

Sparklingbrook · 17/02/2012 17:55

I would let it lie if I were you.

What Pag said. Or it could have been moved to Ill-informed and Cliched (it's a new topic). Is there any chance it could have been mistaken for something tedious and ignorant at all? If so, there it'll be.

Hi there
Think this one was so full of personal attacks and didn't really sit well with the spirit of the site so it went.

Ooh. I like that idea.
Don't tempt me.Grin

For the record, it was rather fat fingers on login earlier and Am rather zonked out today as had too much sleep - total Shock at DS2 sleeping through after some hideous teething that I didn't notice that my posts weren't blue Blush nothing untoward, honest guv.

Sparklingbrook · 17/02/2012 21:12

No shortage of blue posts on MN OliviaMN. Grin

Yes, I recall the drunk feeling after unexpected extended sleep. It makes you feel kind of cheated. You long for sleep, you should feel rested, instead you feel sort of unconscious.

Olivia - was it you that recommended Apostrophe ?
