Word of advice to MNHQ

[Hahahahaha123]

The next time you send an email about a poster to that poster by mistake. Probably best not to refer to your users as 'these people'

Looking forward to the Daily Mail getting wind of the tides changing...

PMSL @ libellous and "being called a thief"

Mumsnet Head Calls Site Users Criminals!
Read the startling truth about what Mum-of-3 Justine really thinks of the women who Chat on her site.

Perhaps it does seem surreal if one's been removed from things as posters have suggested?

Soup we get it. You're HQ's biggest fan.

If you're pissing yourself laughing at that, maybe you need more actual humour in your life!

PBP has long been used to mean everything from psycho-troll to, well, Stratters.

It's not helpful to lump everyone under one acronym like that, really.

And now it apparently means "quasi-criminal".

Soup we get it. You're HQ's biggest fan.

Then you are talking out of your arse.

I am detached from all this.

If you look at how this is unfolding on both sides it is laughable. It's like you're talking different languages.

I did a proper lol at 'quasi-criminal'

You're very contrary, aren't you, Soupy love? It 's quite endearing, really. Reliable, like a little Swiss Clock. ♥️

better screen shot this thread before it gets so surreal it disappears in a puff of smoke....

Pmsl

Please let's not descend this thread into a bunfight and therefore give MNHQ a legitimate reason to delete.

You're very contrary, aren't you, Soupy love?

Not in the slightest, hun.

Soupy, you're fab, you are. Bless you.

You're quite right, INFP.

WTF just happened?

I must admit that I put a lot of the circling rumours of what's gone on here lately down to miscommunication and typical MN summer holiday madness. But this thread was nuts.

You're not wrong there Serf. I was completely ignored, not a peep until a large thread popped up in Site Stuff, asking what was going on. I have no doubt that if that hadn't happened, I'd still be sitting there wondering wtf was going on.

Please let's not descend this thread into a bunfight and therefore give MNHQ a legitimate reason to delete x10!

It's like you're talking different languages

You're spot on there, Soupy.

And yes, the whole "libellous/called a thief" thing is funny because that isn't what was said at all. No one said "X is a thieving shoplifter"

As I read it, it was just an analogy pointing out how it would be strange to welcome people who are happy to flouting rules.

Yes Niffler, it's a bit much isn't it?

And so now we ALL know that there's a giant Monty Python foot up there that might come down and squish any of us at anytime without a whisper of explanation.

It takes the shine off and just makes this like any other place online.

Actually, Soupy I do agree. I think people are getting het up here, but I also think it's in reaction to the same shite from HQ. And I think it's on purpose.

Shoplifting is a criminal act, Soupy. Re-regging on MN isn't. Justine knew full well what impression she wanted to give of the OP and frankly I feel it was beneath her.
