Anyone know what happened to the thread about the poster who was going to share her emperor sized bed with her kids to keep warm tonight? How did that break the rules? 🙄

Literally just come from the message saying it was deleted, wtf!!

vodkaredbullgirl · 20/11/2022 21:48

zapped like many others tonight

defi · 20/11/2022 21:49

Ah ok was literally typing a reply and couldn't post. Makes sense. Why was it zapped?

LoveReallyHurtsWithoutLube · 20/11/2022 21:50

So annoying! Yeah, there was one twat who was writing unhelpful comments, but the rest of the thread seemed like it had some really useful and practical advice. @MNHQ what’s the deal?

OP posts:

Presumably because it was Jackanory or a PBP or both. There's been a lot of threads the past few days where the OP is supposedly freezing, wonder whether it's the new water/M&S.

gwenneh · 20/11/2022 21:50

Because it wasn't by a genuine poster, it was by a troll.

DrManhattan · 20/11/2022 21:51

Prepare for this one to be deleted too!

Maybe it was a troll?

LoveReallyHurtsWithoutLube · 20/11/2022 21:51

Wasn’t exactly an offensive thread though was it?

If a troll it was offensive to people who are genuinely struggling.

mynameiscalypso · 20/11/2022 21:53

I don't think the thread is being started by a troll in a kind and generous way. It's clearly designed to take the mickey out of those who are struggling.

eelieza · 20/11/2022 21:53

I didnt see it but if it turned nasty somehow like "kids/dogs shouldnt be sharing a bed" and it turned into a bun fight

LoveReallyHurtsWithoutLube · 20/11/2022 21:54

Bloody hell, it must have turned nasty really quickly. I didn’t even get to the third page and it was gone!

Honestly don't know how it works. There was one with lots of poo mentioned that didn't get deleted. Maybe the moderators have different standards?

We're not meant to know how it works, and MNHQ can see things we can't.

LoveReallyHurtsWithoutLube · 20/11/2022 21:56

@Sparklingbrook But there was some really good, genuine advice on there.

PBP who's posted loads of fake stuff about being cold - that's why it was deleted

most thread are deleted because they are PBP or bullshit

ghostyslovesheets · 20/11/2022 21:56

oh and it 'turned into a bun fight' because people recognised who it was!

And that’s fair enough. Just wish MNHQ would state that rather than it’s just …… gone.

Exactly. There's been a proper series of 'I'm freezing' threads, all increasingly bizarre.

Yourloss · 20/11/2022 21:58

I didn’t see any bunfight comments but I assume it was the same poster who writes about being freezing cold in various scenarios.

Well I think they said it broke Talk Guidelines so it's fairly straightforward.

torquewench · 20/11/2022 22:01

Another one? They're not very creative are they?

I guess they are fishing for someone to offer them a tenner to put the heating on.
