MrsB, if you say you don't want your children near a certain person, I think its a perfectly fair comment for someone to say they don't want their children around you.
And if that is all this is about, I think you are being a tad melodramatic.

MrsBucketxx · 26/11/2012 09:42

being called scum is not however.

Well some of the bullying I have seen is done quite subtley IYSWIM.
I did report any I have seen.

This must be a thread about a thread. Maybe stop talking in riddles op, and tell us exactly what your issue is.

DinosaursOnAnAdventCalender · 26/11/2012 09:45

I think you have to be very 'pc' on Mn at all times.

I don't know if this is a thread about a thread or which thread but there's a few that come to mind recently where I think that real life conversation wouldn't gotten different responses to the ones on here.

Sparklingbrook · 26/11/2012 09:45

^^ What Morris said. None of this makes sense to me and I feel it's because I haven't read other threads.

MrsBucketxx · 26/11/2012 09:47

i dont censor my rl conversation, any differently to on here.

would be odd if i did.

MrsB sometimes you will get all manner of shit thrown at you on here, dont take it to heartGrin
On the other hand there are some really, really lovely posters on MN who go out of there way to help other posters.
Basically you will experience heaven and hell on here Wink
All to do with timing, what thead/topic you are on.......

Trills · 26/11/2012 09:49

If you never censored what you say, that would be odd.

Pagwatch · 26/11/2012 09:49

Just say what you want to and if you feel you are offended by the replies you get then report them.

There is no 'allowed' on mn outside the posting rules. There is no 'pc'

Mn is the posting membership. Just post what you think and report replies you feel offended by. It's not difficult.

But tbh if lots of people are posting rude things to you it is worth contemplating whether you are possibly being an arse. Just in case.

IAmSoFuckingRock · 26/11/2012 09:50

mrsB you reported that comment. let MNHQ deal with it. this thread is really childish.

MorrisZapp · 26/11/2012 09:51

Nope. Still no idea.

Fenton · 26/11/2012 09:53

MrsBucketxx I saw the insults the other poster made, I thought they were a bit OTT but that thread in itself was causing some upset because if it was a troll it was an unkind piss-take, and if it was a real person posters were being pretty horrible to the OP.

But you reported right? - Leave it for MN to deal with - it was late on a Sunday they may not have got to it yet.

Starting a thread about it is a bit unnecessary.

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 26/11/2012 09:53

Its right at the end ofthe hair dye thread morris

MrsBucketxx · 26/11/2012 09:54

if i say a cleb is fat, ugly,

thats also awfull apparently.

OP posts:
MadBusLady · 26/11/2012 09:54

If it's doing your nut in, don't post. The internet isn't worth it.

Fenton · 26/11/2012 09:56

I think that posters do get away with a lot with regards to insults about celebrities

but there's always a line for some people, - and if someone thinks you've crossed it then they are likely to tell you.

IAmSoFuckingRock · 26/11/2012 09:59

if you think it's ok to call other people horrible things then you dont get to be all offended when someone does it to you.

Pagwatch · 26/11/2012 10:00

Confused i am honestly trying to understand Mrsbucket, but your complaints seem to basically to be that you don't like people arguing with you.

You can post that x celebrity is fat and ugly but people absoloutely can post 'no he/she isn't and I bet you are no oil painting yourself love' or whatever. It's a chat board. It's not an agree board. You might prefer twitter.

Fenton · 26/11/2012 10:01

Actually MrsBucket, - I've just looked at the Rhianna thread (was that the one?) and no-one has had a pop at you about your comment, - other posters have said a lot worse which I think is being criticised there.

Confused
MorrisZapp · 26/11/2012 10:03

Somebody called you disgusting, a bitch, and scum.

So you start a thread about the nicey nicey brigade?

Now I'm really lost. With respect op, why bother starting a thread if all you have to say are shrouded, sideways remarks?

This just looks like fb-style attention seeking.
