What is a PBP?

17 replies

Littlefish · 22/11/2014 15:12

As in the deletion message on a recent thread....

"Message from MNHQ: We have reason to believe that the OP is a PBP.
Peace, love and cake to all."

It's probably really obvious but I'm tired and ill and can't work it out.

Guessing here - Previously Banned Poster?

Littlefish · 22/11/2014 15:16

Oh, of course!

Not:

Pitiful Bloody Poster
Paper Bag Princess
Poor Bastard Pig
Pleasantly Bloated Parsnip

Or any of the other 20 or so options I had thought of.

Evening,

Dogger had it in one. PBP does stand for previously banned poster.

Though we quite like your Parsnip alternative Grin

I am willing to prove my ID or anything. I just want to be part of mumsnet like everyone else but I just keep getting banned for no reason!

conserveisposhforjam · 18/11/2016 16:21

We had blankets and shit out on that last thread...

ExitPursuedBySpartacus · 18/11/2016 16:23

Is it Mary Beard then?

MilkTwoSugarsThanks · 18/11/2016 16:24

Was it interesting? Or ban-worthy?

I miss all the fun.

I just keep getting banned for no reason!

There will have been a reason if they keep banning you.

Cockwbler - what names have you previously posted under?

DonkeyOaty · 18/11/2016 16:37

Maui we asked on the now-deleted thread but sadly old Cocker failed to tell us before thread went pouf. SAD FACE.

I feel a bit sorry for cockwombler actually, hope they can sort it out.

JustAnotherSadOldNumber · 18/11/2016 19:47

This post here was made after the thread was deleted so MNHQ apparently let them stay.

Singlenotsingle · 18/05/2018 11:45

Presumably they just come back under another name?

PanPanPanPing · 18/05/2018 17:02

Although this is a Zombie Thread, this subject is always relevant.

Singlenotsingle, loads of PBPs reregister with new details (different email addresses and whatnot), but most of them are finally found and hunted out by MNHQ - presumably because other MNers are reporting their posts .... which are usually very familiar to those of us who have been here for a few years!

I imagine there are always a few who slip through the net though.
