Unwelcome visitors - and recent "unpopular" threads

771 replies

Hello

We thought you should know that we've had a few "visitors" lately who have, collectively, been hellbent on stirring up bunfights on the boards.

They're not your average hairy trucker/bored schoolboy/silly perve but a group from another (now defunct, it seems) forum.

They were behind the Unpopular Opinions thread - and a fair few other threads that have kicked off recently.

We're on the case.

But we would appreciate your help with "Hoovering" up any visitors our Ban button may have missed.

So do report any suspicions using the Report link, and we promise to check 'em out - though it make take us a while

Many thanks, MNHQ

I KNEW IT!

I did not

usualsuspect · 09/02/2011 19:25

I have concluded that ShirleyKnot is one of them

BitOfFun · 09/02/2011 19:25

Glad you are onto them- it's not nice to see people getting upset and leaving.

hatwoman · 09/02/2011 19:25

ShirleyKnot · 09/02/2011 19:26

DirtyMartini · 09/02/2011 19:26

How fascinating!

Hmmmmmmmmmm

JeremyVile · 09/02/2011 19:26

Another, now defunct, forum?

oooooh, is it christmas?

hatwoman · 09/02/2011 19:26

has it been that bad bof? I've steered clear of the unpopular opinions threads - saw one op and it just seemed bizarre and rather tedious so couldn;t be bothered to look further. it is a shame of they;ve caused real upset.

GypsyMoth · 09/02/2011 19:27

DirtyMartini · 09/02/2011 19:27

I didn't ever look at Unpop Ops. What other threads have there been?

Tortington · 09/02/2011 19:27

testing 1...2....3..

usualsuspect · 09/02/2011 19:28

The bad mothers club is not defunct though

catinthehat2 · 09/02/2011 19:28

Is it Graeme Crossley and Garry Lacey having their revenge?

Glitterknickaz · 09/02/2011 19:28

errr.... no DEFINTELY not BMC...

ShirleyKnot · 09/02/2011 19:28

It really has.

I've only been posting, like, every other day or something.

BitOfFun · 09/02/2011 19:29

No, not BMC. Just another forum, apparently. They want us to all be a-fightin'

People have left, but hopefully they will be back when it settles down.

Gosh you have been busy Mumsnet monitors..

Was it very Scooby Doo investigates? Was Rachel Head-girl Daphne? Did you have a cute dress and lovely headband with bright tights? And did you draw straws to be Shaggy?
