Could someone please post a link to the other two threads. Thank you!

Tinseleverywhere · 04/07/2017 08:12

If something crazy this happened to me I would be on here like a shot with my entry to the MN most entitled person of 2017 award. I must say as a longer term MNer I would expect everyone to disbelieve me and get some hard evidence.
Fam glad you are still about, please get some proof for MN HQ if this is real, I don't want you to get deleted.

Slimeysue · 04/07/2017 08:13

Margo, that thread had triggers in, can't see any triggers in this. It was just fun.

Sadly as soon as the line, ' deleted the messages' popped up from fam my belief popped off. Blocking yes, removing the messages from your phone due to anxiety, yes, but not to copy them to husband's phone first, nope. Not just for MN but also to prove point in school if required.

(But I still wouldn't report it)

PoorYorick · 04/07/2017 08:13

I can understand why MN would delete troll threads even if they're harmless...really no point in a site where everything could be bollocks and no action would be taken if that were known.

GhostInTheBackOfYourHead · 04/07/2017 08:13

Where has Youthe cat been a spiteful bully. As you seem so hot on the rules I'm surprised you are engaging in personal name calling. That is a definite no no. It appears to me that you must feel invincible up there on your high horse. I"m reporting you for that post.

Fwiw, i too was accused of trollery when i posted about my panic and distress when my DFiance was lying in hospital and we were waiting for the life support to be turned off. That was the single most fucking awful time of my life yet it was made worse by posters rushing to report without even checking me out. I have been a poster on here for over 10 years and not once have I asked for anything other than advice and support.
Just because some people don"t believe something doesnt make it false. Logic 101.

Mulledwine1 · 04/07/2017 08:15

I can totally believe this story is real. There's nowt as queer as folk as the saying goes.

But if it isn't, well it's been entertaining.

user1499120902 · 04/07/2017 08:16

I don't even understand what a troll is supposed to be? I always thought they were nasty people? I Obviously got that wrong too lol! I'm certainly not one! But if I offended anyone that was not my intention. Anyway I had quite enough drama yesterday having to defend myself, definitely not going to spend today doing it. Would much rather go back to being a lurker than a poster! Anyway I have a busy dad sil is coming to watch ds as dd is off for an induction day at her new nursery. Have a nice day all xx

ElspethFlashman · 04/07/2017 08:18

paddy there's been about 4 links on this thread alone!

I can't believe ppl actually thought screenshots would be produced. They are always always ALWAYS "deleted".

Always!

DontTouchTheMoustache · 04/07/2017 08:18

ahickie we prefer the term famgirls

Roughlyroughrough · 04/07/2017 08:19

Our doctors opens at 7.30. If you get there before then, there is always a receptionist around opening up the surgery.

There aren't really any holes in this account, so I am at a loss to understand the shouts of troll.

And I'm afraid there's also always this wide eyed Star Trek "what is this thing you humans call........troll???" type of reaction.

user1499120902 · 04/07/2017 08:23

I didn't take any screen shots I didn't know I'd need any! My phone is backed up though so everything will be there somewhere. And I'm sure she will find a way to contact me again. Must remember if I need help or advice I must remember to get proof too lol.

user1499120902 · 04/07/2017 08:25

But isn't a troll a mean girl etc? Not someone who asks for advice surely? That was my understanding of a troll? I think I'm being trolled haha!

Troll is also used for someone who makes up stories that are not true, or uses a fake persona. Very easy on MN where it is all so anonymous. It is a bit annoying if people string you along on a silly fake thread but harmless. The ones I hate are where people are talking about upsetting subjects like domestic violence or a sick child. Of course it is also applied to those nasty haters you get on social media.

user1499120902 · 04/07/2017 08:31

Yes I booked the train ticket, well dh did for me. Il ask him for the email screen shot. But I can imagine his response ha! Anyway I've gone from a massive high from all the support yesterday to feeling quite down today so have a good day and thank you all again x

TheFreaksShallInheritTheEarth · 04/07/2017 08:31

What the heck now? MNHQ block OPs account, presumably because they believe there's some trollery here; but don't delete the thread? Didn't they actually say they were going to delete these posts last night?
Either OP is a troll or not. If MNHQ don't follow their own guidelines, they can hardly blame posters for not doing so.

dustarr73 · 04/07/2017 08:32

The op doesn't need to "prove" anything.Mumsnet is not law and i for one believe her. Just because many posters haven't come across someone like this, doesn't mean they don't exist.

Plus makes me think if you have never come across someone so brass necked,it's you

You should contact mnhq as you can tell them some details confidentially which they won't post online. If you are a genuine poster you should contact them as your thread was a great lesson in standing up for yourself.

Redsippycup · 04/07/2017 08:39

So the thread is still here. But fam is blocked. That's just ridiculous.

Even if she is a troll THERE IS NO PROOF.

Maybe MNHQ have realised that a load of people waving pitchforks and shouting 'Witch!' doesn't mean it's true?

GhostInTheBackOfYourHead · 04/07/2017 08:39

Oh fam please don't let the keyboard warriors detract from your positive frame of mind. There are a lot of people who believe you.
I love what the pp said (sorry, can't remember name) that if you don't know someone so brass necked it's probably you. Grin
Oh and for all the posters baying for proof , I'm looking at you lions , give it a rest. The OP is under no obligation to prove anything to you. Ffs, this isn't a court of law.

greendale17 · 04/07/2017 08:40

What is the point of making things up?
