This is getting seriously out of hand.

I KNOW this is t'internet. I know it should not bother me, but it really does!

Once upon a time MN were resistant to deleting threads unless really necessay. Now, it seems as though it is done on request.
I am feeling more that usually pissed off because i actually thought i may be the obkect of OPs ire. Posted, very tongue in cheek, and poof. Thread gone.

This refers to baby clothes thread, before anyone asks.

Hi toooldtobearsed,

We'd rather not turn this into a TAAT - but we don't just delete threads because we're asked. We realise it's hugely frustrating when a thread's zapped, but we're about making lives easier and when a thread is no longer doing that and causing real concern, we will consider taking it down. These things are also dealt on a case-by-case basis, as with any reported threads or posts.

Hi @Toooldtobearsed,

We just wanted to point out that in the case of this particular thread, the OP did actually mail in within minutes of posting it to ask us to please take it down. Unfortunately, her report landed in the Spam basket and we didn't see it for several hours.

We do completely take your point about thread deletions in general being flipping annoying, though - and we really do try to keep them to the bare minimum.

[quote Toooldtobearsed]@JoanneMumsnet, sorry, threads crossed - I am slow of thought and even slower at typing!

Fair enough, and thank you for taking the time to explain.[/quote]

No problem at all - by this time of night I'm getting pretty slow too...
