Deletions due to being discussed elsewhere

Hi

I was wondering if this is going to be the case for all posts now? Can they be deleted just because they’re discussed elsewhere?

It’s a public forum of course all posts might be discussed elsewhere, that’s the risk you take when you post online.

Why doesn’t this happen when people’s threads end up on Facebook/twitter pages dedicated to slating MN users? Not to mention the scummy journos who lift entire threads on here but MNHQ are happy to keep them?

I thought you didn’t delete threads unless against guidelines etc? Is this going to be a new guideline? Must not be discussed on certain forums?

Indeed Farse - but it was fun watching them squirm. grin

I don't think anyone squirmed at all. Perhaps Farce should enlighten us all as to who the troll is? I always though troll hunting wasn't tolerated on MN and many have been banned for it.

paxillin · 15/11/2017 18:35

I'm not the squirming sort.

MollyBear · 15/11/2017 18:37

The conniptions over there are hilarious.

It would appear that what is sauce for the goose is not at all palatable for the gander.

Somebody trollhunted Shock Shock Shock! Not one of the goody-two-shoes, was it Shock Grin?

FarseAboutAce · 15/11/2017 18:38

Crispy, you wouldn't believe me if I did. Quite rightly; I could be making it all up, and even if I told the truth it would sound incredible. I find it very strange that on other sites posters seem to believe anything they are told.

I'm obviously not troll-hunting, that's against the rules.

paxillin · 15/11/2017 18:40

I'm obviously not troll-hunting, that's against the rules. Phew, I thought I'm surrounded by baddies.

Weebo · 15/11/2017 18:41

Oh, Trolly McTrollface absolutely squirmed.

Squeaking about being doxxed and how could MNHQ possibly allow such a thing to happen? The thread is only still here because of MN royalty etc, etc...

They were positively outraged.

BoreOfWhabylon · 15/11/2017 18:43

But you could troll hunt the other place and post your findings here and vice versa, Farse. That's not against the rules, is it? Grin

There's royalty here? Haven't heard that one hurled about lately Crown.

Weebo · 15/11/2017 18:47

Oi, usual I never said I didn't have time to read your wee threads!

'Course I do.

paxillin · 15/11/2017 18:50

If usual is on this thread under another name you best keep it quiet. That would earn you a ban. I suppose you could always join reddit instead.

Weebo · 15/11/2017 18:51

Yes, pax.

Royalty is like the Illuminati over here. Apparently, they control everything.

Now, who wants a tinfoil hat?

Weebo · 15/11/2017 18:52

No, no.

We are communicating over different forums. It's very fancy.

Outing people is what The Udder Place does.

Christinayangstwistedsista · 15/11/2017 18:53

I can't keep up!

Who is outing who?
Who is a troll?
Who is doxxing?

Its all getting too much

paxillin · 15/11/2017 18:53

I'm a republican. I thought royalty ran off to form moldies and we are a republic now?

paxillin · 15/11/2017 18:54

Take a large swig or three, Christinayangstwistedsista Gin. All will be clear.

Christinayangstwistedsista · 15/11/2017 18:55

I thought Lost was confusing....

Weebo · 15/11/2017 18:57

Well according to them the Monarchy is still very much alive and well.

No one can agree who is who though.

Saucery · 15/11/2017 18:58

Shift up on that Spectator’s Bench. Room for a little one?

Weebo · 15/11/2017 18:59

Who said you were hiding, love?

Stop huffing.

Christinayangstwistedsista · 15/11/2017 18:59

Saucery

Sit next to me and explain, in words of no more than two syllables, what is going on

Weebo · 15/11/2017 19:01

Right, this is getting odd now.

I feel like Oda Mae Brown talking to the ghost of usual. :o

Battleax · 15/11/2017 19:05

I expect there'll be an idiot's guide published soon

LoveProsecco · 15/11/2017 19:05

Sooooooo confused
