"MNHQ is really getting into the spirit of 2017 aren't they? Downward spiral, denial denial denial. should we be expecting a parting of the ways in MNtowers? It sounds about right for how things are going."
Slight derail, but whats been noticeable to me this last couple of months, is the 'mumsnet team' emailing me rubbish. Its not just any rubbish, it pops up in my subject line, 'pimp my vag' or 'spiders wiped its willy' or 'say goodbye to your vagina'. If you have a split screen on your email, youre then delighted to read a selection of all the 'c**t' type comments etc. with a request, 'come join the discussion'.
I dont post on those types of threads. Im not interested in those types of threads. Why does MN think its even appropriate to be sending unsolicited mail like that? I have to put up with those flashing up on my laptop or wherever, at any moment. Id be hauled infront of my boss if anyone saw them.
But that apart, theres clearly been a change in tone as to what the mumsnet team think will 'attract' me in to 'discuss'.
Anyway, back to the OP, who isnt an OP anymore. Utterly agree theres a huge discrepancy about 'guidelines', but clearly the more outrageous the poster, the higher the traffic. When the business model is a traffic based business model, perhaps more bans will happen for troll hunting (aka reporting) than trolling, but in the least I can only expect my mailbox to be spammed by even worse.
