is there anyone from HQ on the night shift?

[ThatVikRinA22]

noticed tonight that trolls come out at night....must be school hols somewhere already.

am reporting but wondered if im talking to myself at this hour? is there a MN nightshift?

(wouldnt blame you if not mind you....i hate nights!)

Bet they are all in bed. Not to worry, I have reported too. They will be gone in the morning . In the mean time..it's past midnight..do not feed them!

definitely not feeding....

just waiting for the HQ trigger finger to get it right!

Oh no, not again. This is starting to become a regular fixture...

In case you were wondering I did mean don't feed the trolls..not starve MNHQ..those trigger fingers need all the energy they can get on a half term

Tedious, isn't it. At least the one post I have seen so far hasn't been as offensive as many of them.

What makes it worse is they appear to be a bit of a light-weight, couldn't go past the 2am pause?

ha! and they were not particularly witty either....

Forgive me please. I fed the troll. Only once and then reported myself

BUT THEY DID SPEAK LOUDLY!

THEY DID INDEED! SHOUTED NO LESS!

I've emailed MNTowers with my advanced search of the name and just asked to have the whole lot deleted. Last week I was Very Noble and went through and reported each one - this week I just CBA have too much else to do.

I HAVEN'T NOTICED THE TROLLS YET

was school hols here today

it's not worth noticing, Giraffes. Tis a stupid troll. No imagination. In fact, tis probably the same stupid troll that was on the last 2 times the board got trolled up overnight. Booooorrring.

Ah. There's a troll on the funeral thread in AIBU shouting about her itchy vag. I told her that one was already in Classics.

Won't feed her any more, I'm off to bed, but I'll report her first.

Goodnight and thanks for the heads up

oh those trolls are boring.

Same one that's always about at this time, usually shouting about RASCLARTS iirc.

I am sure I read a message from HQ recently saying that they hire someone in a different time zone to take on the night-shift...

I would have done it if they'd asked

I offered, tante, I did! But they didn't take me up on it. In fact, iirc, a few of us offered...

Hello. Thanks to all who reported our overnight visitor. He/she has been despatched back to the cesspool from which she/he clearly emerged.

And, Thumbwitch, in cases like this, no need to report each and every post: just one report with a note to say they're spattering their delights all over the shop would be fine. No reason why you should have to search for every single post - that's our delightful job!

In answer to your Qs, we do have someone on duty till pretty late each night and we do have a most lovely Tech overseas who checks in regularly after that.

We will, though, keep note of the occasions when things slip through the overnight night - and, if they're increasing, see if we can plan to stop that.

Thanks Helen - I'm glad that I was being over-enthusiastic! And equally glad that the cesspit troll has been despatched.

If you pay me in gingerbread, I'll stalk the hallowed and hushed halls of a nocturnal MN deleting at random our intrepid bridge dwellers. I shan't move anything important around. Promise.

While we're here and not on the subject, Heeellleeeennnn?

I care not for such ostentatious baubles. Equally, I'm not a magpie.

You should try a gingerbread emoticon. Know your audience OriginalAndBestHelen.
