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'

It's the winds of change

TheFairyCaravan · 23/08/2017 18:07

i would have thought that "these people" referred to a small subsection of posters who are tossers

Same.

Why have MNHQ got one of your PMs? Haven't you been very nice off board?

Hahahahaha123 · 23/08/2017 18:07

Then I got this.

We just wanted to apologise for the previous email. This shouldn't have landed in your inbox - our mistake.

Best

Must we get into a dialogue with previously banned posters, can't we just ban and ignore?
Must we get into a dialogue with troll hunters, can't we just ban and ignore?

Different in context (caveat: don't know why you were banned in the first place)

Fucking hell Grin

WorraLiberty · 23/08/2017 18:12

I can't see anything wrong with that at all in context.

AdalindSchade · 23/08/2017 18:13

Well in this context 'these people' means mumsnetters non grata such as suspended and PBP. Not all mumsnetters.

However as a fully fledged member of 'these people' (not anymore please don't ban me MNHQ) I share your irritation at such an address. The fact that they sent it to you is a little bit funny though

TheFairyCaravan · 23/08/2017 18:13

MNHQ can read anyones PMs

Yes they can but I can't imagine they sit reading them unless they are reported

AlternativeTentacle · 23/08/2017 18:13

The old 'reply instead of forward' slip up.

Been there, done that - owned the t-shirt.

TheNiffler · 23/08/2017 18:14

Suspended, not banned.

And 'these people' is highly unprofessional under any circumstances.

fruitbats · 23/08/2017 18:15

I agree with GaryNuman
Context is everything

Hahahahaha123 · 23/08/2017 18:15

I can assure you Fairy, No one reported my PMs.

And 'these people' is highly unprofessional under any circumstances.

Strongly agree.

OnionKnight · 23/08/2017 18:16

Haha, this is comedy gold.

At least some of us know what MNHQ think of us plebs.

Saucery · 23/08/2017 18:16

So they ask you get in touch if you are suspended and when you do that is going on behind your back? Makes all the please do get in touch stuff look a bit of a lie if they are deciding to ignore.

Hahahahaha123 · 23/08/2017 18:17

You can see nothing wrong with sending me an email not meant for me then Worra.

Ok then.

Dumdedumdum · 23/08/2017 18:18

It doesn't sound so bad to me if written about trolls, who I just have contempt for, but troll-hunting is a broad spectrum from just raising suspicions to hounding people across the boards.
It does not refer to the majority of mumsnetters as "these people". A rookie mistake though to email the wrong person.
