@BankWadger
I am really really upset by this reply I recieved from MNHQ today
Hi there BankWadger
Thanks for your report. There's been a lot of goadiness on every front today so we're letting a lot of it go where posts don't actually breach talk guidelines, but we will make a note of this and just make sure it is just a one-off rather than a habit!
Hope you have a lovely weekend

So has decided, that just this once, it's okay for people to be goady fuckers. Well I guess HQ were on the leave side then, and don't give a flying toss about a large proportion of their users. If had been worded differently (We're over whelmed, we just can't keep up) I wouldn't be so upset, but this just reads as, Nah.. Fuckit. The twats can be unreasonable twats.
If people acted like this after the general election they were pulled up on it. A vote that has far deep reaching permanent consequences however and it's game on to allow all sorts of nastiness at a time when further division is the absolute last thing the nations of the British Isles need.
If I could take my regular thread away from MN and keep that lovely swearyness in my life, I would be seriously considering deregistering right now. That I can't is the only thing keeping me here right now.
Very very sad right now HQ.
Hi there Bank
We have been wading through treacle for about a week now with reports, there are many that aren't a quick and straightforward personal attack that we can easily delete.
Instead we've had plenty of reports where we have to read a post, or even a long thread to look into context and decide whether the post falls on either side of a line between free speech and hate speech. We don't like to make snap judgements.
When emotions run high which they have been for the last couple of weeks, we can get behind see RebeccaMN's post here to explain more
We are but human and we sometimes get it wrong (for which we apologise)
You'll note, we hope that Iona said "where posts don't actually breach talk guidelines, but we will make a note of this and just make sure it is just a one-off"
We rarely delete things that don't breach our guidelines.
We're sorry that you feel that we don't give a toss about our users - nothing
could be further from the truth.
May I reiterate a plea from another thread?
Whichever way you voted, please leave the personal attacks out and remain civil
Peace and love
MNHQ
