I love AIBU, i love a good barney same as the next guy but really, i haven't a clue what is sodding real anymore. I love the fun trolls, especially if they are clever. But when it is about sensitive subjects or just insulting our intelligence - its getting a bit much and i wonder if MNHQ should be considering some sort of control?

"also, mn hq are patently not interested in doing anything about trolls because the more outragious the postings are, the more people come to mn and the more money they make .

Even the more nasty trolls such as dizzymare are essentially free to keep posting here while those who question their validity are silenced."

Woah there! That's just not true. We work pretty hard investigating potential trolls and always ban anyone who we can prove is trolling. We do however like to give people the benefit of the doubt when there is no proof to be found, as per our troll policy.

Please do report any concerns and we promise to look in to them as a matter of urgency. We do recognise that it's important to act in these cases, honest.

We pulled it because it was a slanging match. If you think someone's "mekking it all up" please don't post to that effect on the boards on the boards as you might be wrong and that's not fair. Instead write to us - tell us why you're suspicious and we'll have a look behind the scenes.
Thanks.
