PosterEh · 21/08/2015 18:37

LEM I think it's based on email address so works because your Facebook email is the same as your mumsnet one.

Swatting the Guardian?

AnyFucker · 21/08/2015 18:37

I am doing ctrl/prtscr

IT'S NOT FUCKING WORKING. IT DOESN'T PASTE ANYTHING.

RoosterCogburn · 21/08/2015 18:38

AnyFucker, you might need to press Fn + print screen - depends on your laptop

Kickedinthetits · 21/08/2015 18:38

AF press print screen, open Paint and then press Ctrl + V

QueenStromba · 21/08/2015 18:38

Strange, I am freaked out by clowns but Twisty doesn't really bother me.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 21/08/2015 18:38

the Guardian? because of Orr?

(orr means nose in Hungarian, should anyone care to know)

scaevola · 21/08/2015 18:38

Checking your profile from time to time will narrow down the time window of when someone might have broken in and made changes. Which might help tech investigations if it happens to you (whether on the list or not).

AnyFucker · 21/08/2015 18:39

I just want to change my email. I've been trying to do that for 3 days now < cries >

RoosterCogburn · 21/08/2015 18:39

When you have done the print screen you need to open another program (e.g. MSWord) and paste into that - either right click then paste or Ctrl + v

shadowfax07 · 21/08/2015 18:39

AF

Press Ctrl + Alt + Prt Screen at the same time, that should do it.

HTH

SaskiaRembrandtWasFramed · 21/08/2015 18:40

AF, you don't need to press Ctrl, just Print Scr, then follow the instructions in my previous post :)

howtorebuild · 21/08/2015 18:40

@10.30 on ITV?

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 21/08/2015 18:41

AF

if you have trouble with changing email address email MNHQ [email protected]

they will help you sort it

TheoriginalLEM · 21/08/2015 18:41

WTF is twisty?> i dont do clowns

Thanks for the info PosterEh

AnyFucker · 21/08/2015 18:42

What is this language everyone is talking ? Every single option anyone has suggested for me so far amounts to NADA. Nothing HAPPENS.

HQ want me to print screen the error message page and it appears to be impossible. I could more likely get the Nobel Peace Prize for welcoming cunts to Mumsnet than I can manage this task.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 21/08/2015 18:42

AF

are you able to see emails sent to the email address that is registered with Mumsnet?

I couldn't from my phone. Kat fixed the problem

AnyFucker · 21/08/2015 18:43

Zing, I did that. They have asked a simple request of me. I cannot do it.

HelenaDove · 21/08/2015 18:44

I wonder if Adam Hills will mention this on The Last Leg tonight Hes mentioned Mumsnet a couple of times before when discussing other subjects.
