To think MMHQ are more trigger happy these days?

[raisinsarenottheonlyfruit]

Not a TAAT as such - more about moderation in general.

Is it just me or are MN much quicker to delete threads these days?

There have been a few examples recently where the thread had taken an odd turn - but which could have been solved by deletions or posdibly even a stern but the whole thread has been pulled, despite the thread containing useful advice.

Is this a new policy? Or are there a couple of new mods who are more likely to pull threads?

AIBU to think this is happening and it's a shame if so?

Watch what you're doing with that hammer.

Nuff. I'm telling. I will start a new "ban non-regulation emojis" thread.

Where did that poo appear from? It spoils all those hearts! 😨

Lying careful where you swing that hammer 😁 (sorry for taunting you with constipated emoji's!)

"Don't poo on my hearts" sounds like a love song. Maybe an alien love song.

'Where there is a heart there is a poo' Rusty 2018

WTF happened here?

I think they finished off all the Christmas booze. Several bottles of eggnogg, sherry and port make you go funny. Or perhaps they missed the garish seasonal decorations?

Or perhaps it was an attempt to bump to get the answers.

Unless MNHQ are just waiting for the thread to reach 1,000 posts without any answers.

... I have no excuse, I was drinking nothing stronger than tea.

I think it must have been my absolute delight at finding new emojiis.

Unless MNHQ are just waiting for the thread to reach 1,000 posts without any answers.

In which case, could the emoji ping pong resume, please? Less sweet though, that was creepy.

@deckoff

Also, I always assumed you got an email telling you off when you had a comment deleted. I don't know why one of mine was removed as I was saying that Mum was goady, not a troll.

Apparently not.
I'm in the same boat as you - two posts calling out goadiness and in one case correcting a verifiable point of fact they posted are deleted. Goady post is left standing after the thread has been reviewed by MNHQ. That sends a clear message in itself from MNHQ

GF in the mean time is free to spread mean spiritedness wherever they wish.

"two posts calling out goadiness and in one case correcting a verifiable point of fact they posted are deleted"

Maybe GF hunting is now also a banworthy offence, while goadiness still isn't.

Would you please confirm or deny @JenMumsnet or someone else from @MNHQ?

Maybe we should do a site stuff thread asking for an update on the guidelines because they’re not consistent.

Arrrrgh, yet another thread has been deleted! This time because "The OP has some pressing privacy concerns about this thread and so we're going to take it down now." Seriously, is it worth spending time posting on anything when there's every chance the thread will get pulled?

Don't know which one that was, What, it's not on my list.

I think these OPs ought to be a little bit more circumspect before posting rather than when they just don't like the answers given, if they're going to use privacy as a method to get the thread deleted. Works a treat though, doesn't it?

I started a thread about something that was really worrying me and had some useful responses. I checked back an hour later and it had been deleted with the comment 'pure nonsense'. No effort to clarify anything with me etc, just pulled.

I couldn't talk to anyone about it IRL as it was family-related and 100% true. I found that really hurtful as I had turned to MN for some clarity and support!

That's dreadful, Quizzly, really awful considering the volume of threads started by trolls that stand for days. Did you take it up with MNHQ? I would have because you have every right to post here.
