Would it be a total faux pas to do this on mn?

[Freeble]

We don't hug and we don't hun, right? I think I've got that, spesh from the nm vs mn debate.
But there are a couple of posters in the last few days that I've noticed and I've thought- bloody good point and I like the sound of you.

Do we pm each other and strike up friendships? Or is that way too weird and stalkery and I should without doubt desist?

I love PMs. I feel all warm and fuzzy when I find one!

I quite like a pm now and again, it is nice to be noticed.

I have a handful of posters on my fb. Sadly due to time constraints I have only managed to meet one in person, and even then only once, but I definitely consider her a friend, and one day, when I have more time and money I intend to do a road trip round the UK and meet the rest of the buggers!

what is a crerpy pm ?

I had a pm once to say that folks were talking about me behind my back, that there was actually a blog about me, saying how terrible I was

that was interesting

That sounds horrific AF. I'd have found that very hard to deal with.

Was there a blog?

I got one that said I was an bitch from hell who should go and die somewhere alone and unloved. I think it was supposed to upset me? Fail.

If you pm'd me, OP, I'd go for a bit of back and forth conversation (I've had some nice ones in the past), but I wouldn't be interested in making friends as such. I'd maybe notice your name on other threads and think 'Oh that's the nice one I pm'd with', but I wouldn't make any more of it that that.

The anonymity is really important to me.

I've never had a nasty pm. I have had one from a nosy reporter wanting to do an article about my first (and disastrous) wedding to dh though. They got pretty short shrift!

I reported them to HQ, but can't remember what happenesd after that. Did you report yours AnyFucker?

I never found a blog, and strangely the poster was rather reticent to link to it

I don't think I bothered reporting it (it was a couple of years ago)

OP

nobody on here is 'too good' to receive a well intentioned pm from you, nobody.

They may or may not reply but most of us have the good grace to acknowledge receipt of something so completely benign

Funny that.

Bloody wierdos.

Sophie, you can block all private msgs if you wish

Oh yes, Dixie, I was around when you were being stalked by that PBP.

What a nasty piece of work they were. I hope everyone who sided with them felt pretty bloody sorry when she was exposed.

bloody hell, who was that ?

was it that Susan person ?

What's a pbp?

a crerpy pm is like a unicorm.

a pbp is a previously banned poster

ooh, I like unicorms

wtaf? I'm glad it didn't bother you. I would've been upset
(I've seen you around before, your username makes me smile )

I always make a point of PMing people if I think they are getting an unnecessarily hard time on a thread. Sometimes if their opinion is unpopular or has attracted the attention of some of the more 'vocal ' (for want of a better word) posters on MN, they can be ripped to shreds and few people will dare stand up for them.

I can't remember the name now. Dixieland probably remembers, being on the receiving end of it all.

Interested about 'that Susan' now though.

Your absence from Hay Day is the reason we are doing so shit in the Derby these days.

although I failed to complete any tasks in the last one as RL got in the way

Yes please post a picture of the dress. I need cheering up.

Drums fingers waiting for PMs
