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

BMC are innocent bystanders. Divide And Rule is the operation of a smaller group

How exciting! Do these people actually exist?

Never read thread as seemed too tedious

It had got very odd on here with some spectacularly nasty posts.

Really hope one particular poster has gone who was just vile.

Has cuntsnet imploded already? Wink

Oh, jolly good show, MNHQ.

Am a bit worried about this "hoovering" business. I have heard of this but am not sure what it is.

I suspect that it has to do with the fact that if you get banned, you have more time to use the appliance called a "hoover".

Ohjustshootmenow · 09/02/2011 19:42

BluddyMoFo - that would be worth watching, do link us in to view it won't you :o

What's a hoover? Grin

bupcakesandcunting · 09/02/2011 19:45

Hang on, wasn't the Unpopular Opinions thread started by a "known" MNer? Confused

BitOfFun · 09/02/2011 19:45

Grin @led on by Naughty People

Yes, that is their modus operandi technique. Light the touchpaper and watch us eat ourselves.

BecauseImWorthIt · 09/02/2011 19:46

I think that a 'hoover' lives in the same place as something called 'the iron', but I can't be too sure.

BecauseImWorthIt · 09/02/2011 19:47

Let's all retreat to the bunker in Off The Beaten Track. No-one will find us there.

manicbmc · 09/02/2011 19:47

Nope... sorry... does not compute. Grin

Hid my first thread today, made my first complaint about posts and had to post something serious for once. V happy to hear that normal service should be resumed shortly Grin

Glitterknickaz · 09/02/2011 19:49

Spidermama, no.... I don't think you can 'get it' unless it's your life or children being attacked.

Thingumy · 09/02/2011 19:49

Intersting.Very Interesting.

Ohjustshootmenow · 09/02/2011 19:50

BecauseImWorthIt · 09/02/2011 19:50
