This place is madder than ever tonight!

ofwarren · 11/11/2022 00:47

This is worrying
Someone else said their post got deleted too.
What the hell is happening?

ofwarren · 11/11/2022 00:48

@CallieQ Bibi post has been deleted too

ofwarren · 11/11/2022 00:48

Biwi, sorry

ANightwatcher · 11/11/2022 00:48

It was hijacked by the troll so it was hidden. MNHQ will see it in the morning

Appreciate the suggestion. Its something we're hoping for so 🤞🏻 your thread will help

BIWI - I don't think it was anything to do with your thread - the troll had started repeatedly posting on it pretending to be a night watcher.

Now others are saying Callie is a troll?
I don't fucking know any more.
Either way, something needs to happen because this just takes the piss.
The site is unusable.

I thought Callie was a troll because her posts were being deleted. If I’m wrong I apologise, but I don’t know why else they’ve been removed.

I Am Not A Troll

It was a reasonable assumption because your posts were being deleted. This place is mad right now and the trolls are using names which superficially look like those of genuine posters, too.

CallieQ · 11/11/2022 00:59

Why were my posts deleted? All I did was complain about the troll and the old threads

Is there a deletion message?
Who can even delete it at night? Night watch can't can they?

Catagonia · 11/11/2022 01:05

Why was the one about spending £30 on a soft toy deleted?

honestly feel like almost every bloody thread I post on has been deleted by the time I come back to it. It’s shite.

Looks like MNHQ were working late. I've seen their deletion message on a few troll posts

If they were working late, you'd think they would perma ban the troll though. He/she caused havoc for hours.

Techie types can get around simple troll-hunting.

Although this one seems particularly thick so I don't know.

Hi BIWI, thanks for asking about this. We're sorry your thread was hidden last night - there was nothing wrong with it, of course, it's just it was overrun with troll posts and triggered the auto-hide feature due to the number of reports about it.

We've reinstated it by now (though there are a fair few holes in it!) and will be posting on it shortly.

BIWI · 11/11/2022 10:27

Thanks @DawnMumsnet Flowers
