How long should a thread be left up after we are informed it is going to be deleted?

Because I don't think that four minutes is enough of a warning, I really don't Sad

You know it will just mean threads about threads, because people who don't press F5 every minute see what looks like a totally valid question getting wiped out.

If we are going to invoke the Olympic Spirit, may I politely suggest one that leans towards London rather than Beijing?

Really, usual?

LRDtheFeministDragon · 31/07/2012 20:22

Oh, that leading question was to the 'funny threads'. Now I just look snarky.

usualsuspect · 31/07/2012 20:22

'jizzface'

LRDtheFeministDragon · 31/07/2012 20:23

Well done, dear.

usual, don't worry, it was a feeble attempt to tempt information about 'funny threads'.

LeB0F · 31/07/2012 20:24

Mary, I haven't said any of that. I'm saying that ArtexMonkey has had no more that your average number of posts deleted as a spirited and regular contributor. I am further saying that she posted only once on a thread from which she was bounced for "repeated" infringements, which is clearly a mistake.

But it's being sorted out now, happily, so we don't need to stir the pot any further really, full moon or not. Is that fair enough?

The jizz on the doorstep thread was funny and the entitled stepson one is, but we have been told off for being mean on that one.

'sorryface'

LRDtheFeministDragon · 31/07/2012 20:26

Ah, right. The jizz on the doorstep just gave me a bad taste in my mouth whenever I looked at it.

If I was MNHQ and I'd have got that email I don't think I'd have replied to AM.

Why would they? Seems a lot of hassle.

QuickLookUsainBolt · 31/07/2012 20:28

Agree with your last post Maryz.

From what I know 3 threads were started yesterday about Stranded. She then posted a thread this morning and was jumped on for it. What the heck is that about? I think anyone who had three threads directed at them has the right to reply.
AFAIK Stranded is a 21 year yo, [the same as my DD], yes she can be annoying sometimes but I'd like to think the more mature women amongst us would take her age into consideration when continually having a go at her.

Let's talk about jizz, or bumsex or something.

Or sightings of TypeAndWank.

if it was enough jizz to be mistaken for a Herman then I'm fucking impressed.

Just one question about something else since I was letting the side down by looking after my kids, did the OP come back before it went poof?

BuntCadger · 31/07/2012 20:32

Can we just not go there as this will go poof

LeB0F · 31/07/2012 20:32

I haven't commented on anything about Stranded. Not once. Please don't get my thread deleted by fighting, I was trying to help get things sorted out. This thread isn't about Stranded, the thread referred to in it was a thread about Stranded either.

Seriously, let's not get this one deleted. Her name doesn't need to come up.

Now, KY or a non-name brand?

LeB0F · 31/07/2012 20:33

wasnt about Stranded either, sorry.
