I've had a flurry of odd deletions over the past 6 months, been here 8 yrs. They have not broken talk guidelines, but can see how in a litigation panic that button may have been hit. But this thread
www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/a2726298-What-do-you-do-for-charities-around-christmas-time
This thread has all negative, but not positive, references to Operation Christmas child or Samaritans purse deleted. So Mumsnet is effectively promoting the highly controversial OCC. I was careful to stick to the facts and only linked to OCC legitimate sites. After some more odd deletions, ok OCC have sent legal team to MNHQ before, this series of post from the OP

Please remove. Thank you.
To me it looks like the OP is editing her own thread via the report button! This undermines the whole forum surely? I got up this morning to find even more deletions. Under what talk guidelines does saying last year for xmas I got OCC banned from my DC's school and this year I plan to do the same in their new school break the rules?
MNHQ if we are not to discuss OCC then it should be a complete ban. If none of this was meant to be and it's an error, this sort of error is happening a frequently in the last 6/12 months.

Hi Scaredycat3000,

Thanks for this.

I've had a look into this one now and it does seem to be the case that we have pressed the big red button in haste. I have reinstated your posts now and apologise for the upset.

We do feel that it's important to say that we are all for freedom of speech but posters do need to know that they are personally responsible for what they post.

If we receive a complaint from the company involved we may have to give the poster the option of whether or not they'd like to stand by their post and give their information over to the complainant (following a court order to do so) for possible legal proceedings. More on this here

We were heavy handed on that thread and we have reinstated your posts now. We have not removed posts that mention OCC as the same goes for both sides of the coin.

Our guidelines state that we will remove posts that are homophobic not posts about a company that is potentially homophobic.

We hope that helps to clarify and we are sorry for any upset caused.
