I've been out and see that the thread that was in Chat has been pulled, before I went out there had been some (I think) useful discussion on what is and isn't appropriate to do in these circumstances.
I can see that there is text at the top of the MH board which links to really useful helplines, but what should/shouldn't individual MNetters do when a worrying thread is posted? Does MN have a policy on it?
For example, lastnight a few posters wanted to get MNetters to link the thread on FB in the hope that someone that could help would see it, which myself and a few others said wouldn't be a good idea, and as far as I know that didn't really happen. If we had some MN guidance then it would be easier for individual posters to see what is the best course of action - even if the policy is just to report to MNHQ, be supportive and link Samaritans.
