To think people are far too accusatory on MN sometimes?

[justwantedalaugh]

Within seconds of starting two different threads, I was accused of being a Daily Mail journo, being a government agency and manufacturing/selling doormats . You would have to know me to know how unlikely any of those scenarios are, of course.

What the funniest/most unlikely thing you've been accused of on MN?

Are you accusing us of being accusatory?

Maybe it's ALL Nicola Sturgeon (who moonlights as a doormat salesperson, does not know a certain name, and does not know her job as well as she thinks she does, whilst writing articles for the Daily Mail).

I have been accused of being a paedo. Because I needed some closure ona couple of weird incidents I went through in my childhood that were possibly sexually abusive. So I did post in rather more detail tahn perhaps would be expected. I am not neurotypical and I sometimes struggle to put myself across well, especially online, and I needed validation because I was confused about what happened to me. The sad thing is, this happened not long after the We Believe You campaign was launched on MN. I have come to realise since then that MN does not always believe women who share their experiences, sadly.

That's awful if you can't share with the anonymity of the web (which has helped a lot of people who are ready for real-life sharing) where can you? Sorry to hear you've been through those awful experiences and hope you are getting some kind of help now.

In response to a fairly innocuous post, I was accused of being disgusting. The objectionable phrase had to do with a man's hand grazing a woman's bum. I can only guess that in her eagerness to be indignant the poster forgot words can have more than one meaning & concluded that I'd said a man was foraging for food on a woman's arse.

Never get accused of anything, I'm roundly ignored. Tempted to post goady and outrageous wankery to test my invisibility.

@RadioDorothy - sorry I just don't believe you. I think you're making it up

Yanbu. The desperate to trip others up Sherlock types irritate me too. "Op you say you like Pringles but on another thread th said you weren't that keen on crisps ".

I once got accused of being a man ‘surrounded by wank tissues’ or something equally gross. I was daring to tell the (male) op that they were coming off badly in their thread (most others were saying it as well!). I think they transpired to be a troll in the end.

I’ve been on the other side as well, told off by other posters for troll hunting the prolific MN toilet/teacher troll. ‘You don’t know it’s a troll, teachers have problems you know’ - well I’d fucking hope any future teacher of my children have far better use of English, and no obsession with children pissing themselves .

Go ahead, from what I’ve seen recently some utterly ridiculous, obviously made up threads are allowed to go on and on. Just make it as much of an emotional rollercoaster as possible, you’ll have an army of supports by the end of the week!

I was accused of being a dentist!

iklboo ha!

Padparadscha I do often ponder on what shite would get a massive response, but I haven't got the balls to lie about much - not even anonymously. I am fascinated that my genuinely desperate, "I'm in the shit at work" thread swiftly disappears with no replies but "Which direction do your nipples face" *not a genuine thread title would probably end up in classics.

I reckon I simply have a boring writing style.

I’d point you in the direction of a current example of how to troll the masses and get away with it, but I don’t fancy getting banned today, sorry . You seem to have some morals/not a sociopathic, so I don’t think it’s worth your time regardless .

I've been accused of lying about my job, simply because a poster didn't agree with my view. It's bizarre to be sitting here, at my desk, having a stranger telling me I don't do what I do do for a living.
