After the whole debacle

I'm not sure I want to be here any more.

So many posts today criticising those who thought they were helping.

Thanks for the giggles people. But I don't think I can stay after today.

People just did what they thought was right and to be made to feel guilty is just shitty.

Wish you all well!

TYV. Apparently I jumped on a bandwagon for my own selfish reasons.

I cannot be doing with being berated online by people who question what I do. Fuck. That happens enough in RL

Oh don't go, please, this will all blow over. Besides, I bet no-one has called you a cunt yet. It is almost a rite of passage. Stay until then, at least.

Don't take anything to heart Mattie.

There are always differences of opinion, both on here and in RL. Am sure your intentions were good so just keep your chin up. As long as you know your conscience is clear it doesn't matter what anyone else says.

theyoungvisiter · 20/01/2011 22:43

ok, I've found it all now. As you were.

I'm afraid being berated online by people who question what you do IS mumsnet. Or at least 95% of it.

But quite understand that you may have had enough for the mo.

theyoungvisiter · 20/01/2011 22:44

Gosh, I've never been called a cunt in five years!

Nice to have something to aim for...

QueenGigantaurofMnet · 20/01/2011 22:44

you are taking a generalisation personally.

i have no idea who you are mattie. i have been here for so long many names just don't stand out im afraid.

my posts (which i assume you are saying have caused your flounce) are aimed at all of those banging drums and reposting requests for people to email and twitter all and sundry without actually checking with the family that this was what they wanted.

i do not believe you/they have done anything with any malice and indeed nothing but good intentions, but essentially rivens family are now under a lot of pressure over this and had the "campaign" been better considered that wouldn't have been the case

if you feel that requires you to leave then that is a shame. nothing an anonymous person says on a screen should upset you in rl.

Oh please don't get all sensitive and precious! This is the internet! If you don't like it then don't bother posting any more. That's it really! Alternatively you could leave it a few days, hang about and continue sharing your experience.

tigerbear · 20/01/2011 22:51

I've never understood Flouncer's Corner or why people get upset at words on a screen!

TheSleepFairy · 20/01/2011 22:57

mattie you are a cunt.

There you go, I said it, everything can go back to normal instead of a series of 24.

Stay & play, it was all done with good intentions.

"i do not believe you/they have done anything with any malice and indeed nothing but good intention"

Queen. You're the one that said we should feel "guilty" for this. Don't backtrack now. Now I feel bad for doing what I did. Fuck it. Don't patronise me.

TheSleepFairy Grin have a [biscuit} for being the first person to call me a cunt Grin

You can reciprocate if you want to because I am a cunt virgin to.
