Messages all vanishing and now strange new 'report this post' boxes coming up.

Hee hee, it's me - if it were tech it'd work perfectly the first time. :)

SparklyGothKat · 21/04/2006 00:15

JJMumsnet · 21/04/2006 00:16

Yeah, it'll be here soon - maybe not tonight, though.

SparklyGothKat · 21/04/2006 00:17

SaintGeorge · 21/04/2006 00:18

Can you tinker with my name on the mods page while your playing please JJ.

I'd like my chatname on their rather than my real name.

It didn't work - but am still trying and will give it a couple of more goes before I throw in the towel and go crying to Tech (he's used to it..)

Mytwopenceworth · 21/04/2006 00:20

Report this post? It's going to feel like I'm back at school!

"Please miss, Mytwopenceworth said she's going to shove my weaning spoon up my big round botbot."

I'd feel like reporting posts just for the hell of it!

Bad spelling, poor grammer, use of text speak.... Grin

JJMumsnet · 21/04/2006 00:22

Have just done StG - it'll be live in 2 minutes. Let me know if I've messed it up!

SaintGeorge · 21/04/2006 00:24

Ah, that's better.

Cheers JJ Smile

My goodness, my2pworth, did they really say that at your school?

Think it'll work out fine and be easier for us as the link to the post in question will be in the email to contactus.

Mytwopenceworth · 21/04/2006 00:35

We'll be kids with a new toy and drive you crazy gettig you to sort out our squabbles. We'll be worse than your kids...You'll be yelling "For Gods Sake if you can't play nicely then go and sit in seperate rooms!!!!!" Then you'll stop our pocket money. Sad

JJMumsnet · 21/04/2006 00:54

No - it'll be fine. But here we go again - apols if I take down Talk for a few minutes (starting at 0:56)...

SaintGeorge · 21/04/2006 01:01

Oh the temptation to click!

Now you see the link, now you don't.

Stop teasing us JJ Grin

JJMumsnet · 21/04/2006 01:03

I keep taking it down because it doesn't work... sigh.

SaintGeorge · 21/04/2006 01:38

Steady for a few minutes now JJ, dare I ask - is it working?

OP posts:
JJMumsnet · 21/04/2006 01:42

Use it to report a post in the beginning to middle of a thread and I'll let you know (please.. would really like a test of it!)

SaintGeorge · 21/04/2006 01:43

Doing it now

OP posts:
SaintGeorge · 21/04/2006 01:45

Eagerly awaits report of success .......

OP posts:
JJMumsnet · 21/04/2006 01:47

It worked! Thanks StG.

Ok, so now we have the ability to report posts - just click the link and Bob's your uncle (not my dad, Bob, just some generic Bob, I think...)

:)

SaintGeorge · 21/04/2006 01:47

Yipppeeeeeee Smile

So do you get to see the exact post I reported then or just the thread in general?

OP posts:
JJMumsnet · 21/04/2006 01:53

The exact post - wahey! Will make it much easier for us, really. Thanks for doing that.

SaintGeorge · 21/04/2006 01:59

No problem.

Off to bed now since I have dared to look at the clock and seen what time it is Shock

Have fun with all the emails that will come flooding in when everyone goes 'ooh, what's this' and clicks!

spacedonkey · 21/04/2006 03:30
