It is getting late, maybe best continued tomorrow.

Not knowing if criticising a post is going to be judged as criticising the person is really hard,

MN need to see the difference between "your are shit" and "what you just said is shit"

There is a very big difference and one is not a personal attack

@lazymonkeyface

I feel sorry for Justine. She's said things will be looked into and I believe her and trust it well go back into the mn we all know and love.

Sorry if we are keeping you away from your family. Its difficult because we love it here, and things feel like they are changing and we don't like it, but I appreciate you feel the same way about it.

Thank you (and to AF and HoneyD too) - that's much appreciated. At the risk of sounding a bit soppy I do know it's because y'all care for MN, and of course so do I and the rest of the team here, so there must be a solution because to coin a phrase we are all in this together Grin.

Am off to bed but will be back once we've had a bit of a conflab.

PacificDogwood · 29/05/2012 23:11

Thread went 'pouff', it was such a beautiful derail Grin

HoneyDragonWearingLederhosen · 29/05/2012 23:12

Maryz - If Mnet had a Freshers week, you'd be running it, theres your badge Grin

JustineMumsnet · 29/05/2012 23:12

@Maryz

Oi, no handing out of badges now.

That would be favouritism, and you really don't want to go down that route. Imagine the fall-out Shock

Tempted to delete, not hand out a badge Grin.

NormaStanleyFletcher · 29/05/2012 23:12

Night night Justine :)

lazymonkeyface · 29/05/2012 23:13

I got quoted by MNHQ!

mistlethrush · 29/05/2012 23:14

"Justine: Am off to bed but will be back once we've had a bit of a conflab."

Anyone else picturing Justine et all all tucked up under the duvet having a conflab?

In general, I agree with this Norma. This is, historically, our position and should be our policy going forward.

Last year for Wimbledeon I had a long name with VAMOSRAFA on the end of it.

I decided to be discreet this year ! Grin

ExitPursuedByABear · 29/05/2012 23:22

Oooh this kicked off didn't it.

Still never been deleted.

BawdyStrumpet · 29/05/2012 23:24

I would like to know why my thread was deleted. I think I had a fair point that some of the "quiches" derail threads. They do, i have seen it with my own eyes. There were no names mentioned, no personal attacks. Fair enough if I am in a minority of one for thinking this. I can see no reason for the thread to be deleted though....

crazynanna · 29/05/2012 23:26

HQ said it was a thread about a thread

BawdyStrumpet · 29/05/2012 23:29

Well it wasn't! Which thread?

And since when did thread about a thread equal deletion?

lazymonkeyface · 29/05/2012 23:30

Bawdy, who elses eyes would you seen them with?

< wonders if there's an eye shop. It answers the immortal question

Jeepers creepers, where'd you get those peepers.>

lazymonkeyface · 29/05/2012 23:31

Since always.

ChippingInNeedsCoffee · 29/05/2012 23:31

Oh fucking hell - I just posted a long rant well thought out statement and the fucking computer ate it.

Justine, I agree with the others. This site HAS changed and not for the better :(

Empusa · 29/05/2012 23:31

I think you know perfectly well why it was deleted.

I'm glad this threads seems to be reaching some constructive conclusions :)

crazynanna · 29/05/2012 23:31

I think you cannot have a thread about a thread...'tis the rules.

I maybe wrong

ChippingInNeedsCoffee · 29/05/2012 23:38

I'm glad you are looking into it and I hope that changes will make it more like it used to be :)
