I have reported it 3 times today, 1 before 9am.
Heard nothing from them.

RowanMumsnet, are you saying you were at least 6 hours behind with your inbox today?

OP posts:
BlameItOnTheCuervHoHoHo · 13/11/2012 16:35

Amillion, sometimes that happens. Why can't you accept that like everyone else?

HullyEastergully · 13/11/2012 16:36

there are other amphibians in need out there.

Greensleeves · 13/11/2012 16:39

amillionyears, just drop it fgs, you got what you wanted

BlameItOnTheCuervHoHoHo · 13/11/2012 16:42

I don't know why some posters continue to use mumsnet when everything about it pisses them off.

amillionyears · 13/11/2012 16:45

6 hours is too long for racism.

OP posts:
amillionyears · 13/11/2012 16:47

I realise there are some other posts that would take priority.
RowanMumsnet has just said that they check reports constantly.
How far down the priority is racism?

Leave her alone!

MotherfuckingMorrisMan · 13/11/2012 16:48

I want to look at the OP's inbox. Check her efficiency.

MotherfuckingMorrisMan · 13/11/2012 16:48

ooh that sounded a tad rude.

BlameItOnTheCuervHoHoHo · 13/11/2012 16:48

I would imagine that they get snowed under fairly quickly. Seriously, let it go.

MotherfuckingMorrisMan · 13/11/2012 16:48

Have you not seen the twats on MN lately?

MN inbox must be full of people saying 'cor have you seen this wanker' etc.

BlameItOnTheCuervHoHoHo · 13/11/2012 16:49

Amillion, why do you use mumsnet? It seems that all you do is whinge about it.

Greensleeves · 13/11/2012 16:49

you can't just click your fingers and expect people to jump! 6 hours is a pretty short time to get a personal response to a query/complaint on a big website.

There are others, if you don't like this one....

That thread from the early hours of Sunday was there for fucking ages.

It was almost as if mnhq were quite literally asleep.

It was ace. I was on a shitstorm thread instead of hearing about it afterwards.

MotherfuckingMorrisMan · 13/11/2012 16:50

Now I really, really want to report some random post so I can put in the comment box 'cor have you seen this wanker'.

I am so easily amused.

And yes I am one of those divs who laughs at her own jokes.

HullyEastergully · 13/11/2012 16:52

I am intrigued

amillion are you really this incensed about frogs?

WHY?

We're a bit confused here, amillionyears. From what we can see, the posts you reported were personal attack - someone calling someone else "mad as a box of frogs".

Obviously, they merit deletion (for being personal attacks) but, given that the thread wasn't about French people but about the failings of Mumsnet and the person being attacked had made no mention of being French, we didn't see any racist intent in the posts.

BornSour · 13/11/2012 16:54

If you don't like MN, why don't you hoppit?

Sorry, that was a bad croak.

Greensleeves · 13/11/2012 16:54

lololol

so there wasn't any French connection at all?

loopier and loopierGrin

HullyEastergully · 13/11/2012 16:54

Did you type that with a straight face Helen?

Did you?

BornSour · 13/11/2012 16:55

I love the phrase 'mad as a box of frogs'.

When I'm mad. I'm that kind of mad.

HullyEastergully · 13/11/2012 16:55

I grow increasingly fond of amillion

what else are you cross about?
