why was the text to sister about op's dh zapped?

[LEMmingaround]

Surely it was genuine???

Zombie eats enough to keep body and soul together. A midnight feast sounds good. Can we fantasise? Zombie fancies smoked salmon and cream cheese. She has cream cheese but the smoked salmon is in the freezer.

Sleep well, AF. ZombieHugs™.

Well, I may well dream of smoked salmon. If I ever get to sleep.

And hello to CuttedUpPear.

And thanks for helping - MN is lovely you know. Even when it's gone a bit weird.

Zombs, you always pop up at an Ungodly Hour

My 6am start is looking far too close for comfort.

Blimey! MN relationships really has gone bonkers the last week or so. I've not posted on several threads because of it. What a lot of upfuckery

I have to get up again now

Hello LineRunner. Not sure if I'll get any Boy George on 6music at this time of the day.

Why has the thread by the woman who thought that her husband was being unfaithful been stopped? It just says that MN are looking into it, but that was days ago.
I really did believe that one & posted some supportive comments

I messaged MNHQ today to ask about it, FrancesNiadova but haven't had a reply yet.

Is it always like this in here?

I am a relative newcomer (have had an account for over a year but only just started posting "regularly")

Got sucked in by Hotpot but after initially defending Daisy I did have some reservations.

Thought if anything it was a not so eloquent rehash of the Hotpot saga.

Never really heard of the concept "reverse" until now.

Gawd, no wonder MN gets such bad press!!!!

Blimey, was a very convincing thread so no wonder people get sucked in!

Handful What is TAAT?

hold on hold on, iwashappy's thread has been zapped? "Think my DH is being unfaithful" ??

redviolin it's on hold whilst they investigate it. But it's been on hold for a few days now. I have it in my watch list.

Mamman, no it's not always like this and there is genuine lovely supportiveness often. Unfortunately lately it's become ridiculous to the point where my first thought is always 'is this for real?' And I have been reporting threads all over the shop. takes away from all the good done here.

That was fiction apparently.
So we've had the dh with the boots texts, the dh emails cam-sex girl affair, the sister texts, all fictional??
Can someone please explain what possible motive there is for someone to make these things up. Research for a book?
Weird sense of humour?
Tres bizarre

I really don't understand two things:

1. Why there are so many threads that are seemingly fake in relationships? And I mean that in the sense that surely there CAN'T be that many? The odds are against there being as many troll threads as MN are calculating or people are reporting. Even if the thread is not 100% watertight true, I expect it still asks a question which the OP wants an answer to - which should be reason enough to answer it, shouldn't it?

1. Considering we're all giving advice and support for free with the expectation of nothing in return apart from our inclusion in this community and the opportunity to post ourselves if we need advice, why do we get so upset when OPs don't turn out to be genuine? There is an awful lot of over-investment going on. And I don't understand whether MN are responding to people's over-investment by pulling threads or they are genuinely pursuing a talk forum full of completely true and watertight threads?

Please - could somebody tell me what a TAAT is???

I keep seeing it on here, it isn't listed in the acronyms and I haven't a clue ...

Thread about a thread

Of course people do and should invest emotionally in real life. But on an internet forum?

They should only give as much as they're prepared to lose.

Thanks, firstposts

So how would iwashappy prove her thread was real? I cant believe that wasnt real. If mn contacted her, how would she prove her h was cheating!? I think id leave mn if they put me on trial like that.

You would have to explain factual inaccuracy, tweaking details to avoid identification is one thing, typing a load of unnecessary embellishment which is bullshit is something different.
