*#ibelieve #justiceforFam#

My husband too sounds like yours and I was giving him updates of the updates last night.

I can't believe that WORKzilla emailed MNHQ that many times just to get her cunning plan to WORK and undermine Famtastic

Also poster who said that Fam hadn't got the number - she said she had contacted the friend who did the usual morning care to get it

Real or not, it's certainly been entertaining, and there's been some good advice on the threads of how to stand up to pisstakers!

Still here Shock

Oh c'mon! We all know this had ALL the signs from the opening post. But it's been FUN Grin

OvariesForgotHerPassword · 04/07/2017 07:06

I get why people report troll posts that are actually damaging... begging for money, lying about sick kids etc... but if this is fake (I want to believe Grin ) what is the harm in it? It's funny, it's entertaining, it's got all the hallmarks of a Classics thread.

Bunch of Fun Sponges reporting it and jumping on the thread to say "I told you so" Hmm

She works 7:30-5:30 or sometimes 7-6 or 8-5 the medical centre is open all the time as it's a out of hours drop in doctors. She leaves most days at 6:30 and gets home between 6-7 at night. But anyway her hours arnt my problem now as I'm not helping! I can't prove I'm not fake I'm just shocked people think I am. Ds was off sick he came down stairs ( stairs lead to front door) and vomited, it was. Certainly well timed and shocking but it did happen. He is feeling much better today by the way and thinks it's hilarious that he threw up and it got on neighbours shoes! Il check out the Sen boards thanks for that x

GhostInTheBackOfYourHead · 04/07/2017 07:09

I believe you fam

But to all the posters who are talking about Rihanna and Kelly Rowland, you're all wrong. It's RuPaul's "WORK". It has been in my head for the last 24 hours. And I dont't know the other songs so they must be made up, right?

MNHQ, don't delete please. Don't let the self important douchebags win.

I tend to work off the assumption that any threads where the drama is happening in real time, with breathless updates, is a pile of old toot. There are more and more lately, affair ones, parking ones, entitled ones.

Some of them are quite funny, but they are taking over the boards a bit recently.

And the fawning pant wetters make me laugh more than the OP usually. It's like a mass hysteria.

awmoo · 04/07/2017 07:13

Jeez the worms have turned. Go to bed and its all Fam we love you come back and update us to she's a fake and troll and being reported left right and centre. True loyalty and support here then.

MrsJamin · 04/07/2017 07:13

Oh I belieeeeeeve! 👏
One of the most entertaining mn threads ever!

Bluntness100 · 04/07/2017 07:15

Yayy, it stayed here.

I actually think there is an element of truth in the thread, yes it's probably been embellished, but who cares it kept many of us amused and entertained.

There was no harm in it. And if it's fake then fam should write a book. Her creative writing skills are excellent.

Ironfloor · 04/07/2017 07:18

Don't think Fam is coming back... 😟

peukpokicuzo · 04/07/2017 07:20

Is it hopeful that such a long time has passed since the "we're going to delete this" message and it is still active.

MNHQ if you have some actual proof of trolling then that's fair enough but 300 reports from troll-hunters is not proof. Crazy stuff happens and entitled users like WORKzilla really do exist (and many contributors to this thread have shared examples).

Deleting the threads and banning Fam just because of suspicions but no proof is a really shitty thing to do.

user1499120902 · 04/07/2017 07:23

I couldn't be a writer I have no imagination lol! This is why I wanted opinions on this crazy family! They really are that hard to believe! I downloaded the app yesterday so was quite easy to keep all posted as best I could since I was home with a sick kid having cuddles most the day.

She kept messaging me last night and I kept reading them and going over it all. and my anxiety was in over drive! So me and husband had a quick chat before he left this morning and decided my sanity was better than proving myself! So all was deleted and I blocked the number. No doubt she will find a new way to contact me though as she just doesn't get the message.

Thank you again for all the support it was so nice, empowering women moment I've never had such a feeling of support xx

mydietstartsmonday · 04/07/2017 07:26

Good luck Fam we know it's you stay strong you are awesome and now a banned mumsnetter it doesn't get better then that- you rebel!

bloodymaria · 04/07/2017 07:26

Iron, fam is posting as user1499120902 as her original account has been blocked. Look at the 7th post from the top on this page.

DAMNgina · 04/07/2017 07:26

user1499120902/fam - You are going to be out on the 17th though right? Those kids will appear on your door step...

Hortonlovesahoo · 04/07/2017 07:26

What I'd like to know is whether workzilla messaged last night or if she left it for in person guilt tripping?

I totally believe people like this exist. My SIL is a childminder and has had a few chancers try to pawn off their kids to her without asking and just assuming as "she has kids anyway".

Writerwannabe83 · 04/07/2017 07:27

I believe you Fam - I've been on the receiving end of crazy entitlement (not childcare related) and such people really do exist!!!

I very much enjoyed your thread, I hope MNHQ reinstate you and you can continue to keep us informed of this woman's behaviour because it's hilarious!!!! Grin

Anatidae · 04/07/2017 07:27

Just screenshot the messages and send to MNHQ - that'll prove it ;)

user1499120902 · 04/07/2017 07:28

Haha thank you! I was so worried when it first went on Facebook that I'd be found out! And they would see it was me! But I'm atill glad I carried on posting as I got great advice and support! Feeling very drained from it all today. Hoping for a nice quiet day!

ssd · 04/07/2017 07:28
