Why are you allowing people to troll the Sex Board?

[HornyBee]

If it was any other board you wouldn't allow it.
If I went on another board and started posting recipes and taking the piss out of the posters I'd quickly be banned.
It is flooded with people trolling it.
Every single thread.
It's really horrible.
Take it off active or just shut the whole board down.
It's disgusting.

Totally agree.
Some posters are incredibly childish.
And also appear to have zero IT ability so can't hide threads or topics.

It has enough trolls on it already.

Eyeroll

It's a completely pointless board now anyway. Nobody can ask a geninue question on there without being attacked.

If @MNHQ would just stop it / revert back to it being in Active, everything would go back to normal.

Totally agree

I don't really understand your comment.
Are you saying the people wishing to discuss sex on a dedicated sex board are all trolls?
Because the people on the sex board were perfectly happy on there minding their own business. And now they are being attacked.
It's very clear to me who the nasty trolls are. And it's not the posters of the sex topic!

And you think the posters on the sex board deserve to be attacked for discussing sex?

If they would just remove it from active conversations everything would go back to normal.

You're right, it is disgusting.

It's disgusting that I now have to see titles about rimming and flesh lights and anal whilst browsing MN at the breakfast table with my 12 year old nearby.

It's disgusting that MNHQ have a product to sell and have unilaterally decided that we should all see your disgusting topics and conversation titles.

No thanks.

And if you think for a minute that the sex board isn't already heaving with trolls and perverts, you're sadly mistaken.

This. ^ I have never been there before this week and never knew it existed. But it's been in the ACTIVE topics this week, so I had a gander. Some weird shit in there. 😜 Sure, maybe some women like to discuss sex and what positions they like lalalalala, but as pps have said, it's going to be full of perverted men aged 40+ getting their rocks off to what they read on there. Some posters claiming to be women are probably men too.

Yes please take it off Active again. I can't work out how to hide it and I really don't want to know about this stuff.

It is mostly men and always has been.

Absolutely tragic that a bunch of men aren't able to walk over the mumsnet forum as much as usual this weekend, my heart really bleeds for the "usual posters".

@HornyBee You are taking the posters slating the SEX topic board VERY personally? Why is that? 😂

I hid the board today. Sick of seeing it in Active.

if only that board required a verified image of the poster before they could post.

i agree with PP it’s likely full of middle aged men. Pathetic really.

Sex threads are wall to wall troll usually. Im actually enjoying the piss takes.

my fave was "ah so much like the home life of our dear departed queen" had me chucking for ages.

I'm giving up on MN for a month or so see if it improves. it's a weird vibe. All the normal stuff mixed in with SEXSEXSEX I don't understand are they really hard up?

What next links to porn sites?

And still radio silence from MN HQ. No explanation as to the reason for moving it to Active and drastically reducing the time you need to be on MN before using it. It's clear that neither the users of the board nor the non-users like the new set up.

Keeps all the sex stuff in one place I guess.

Agree.

Plus the gross promo thread from MNHQ titled 'what do you like to see on kids TV?' In the sex topic! I mean fgs!

I don't often post in the sex topic to be honest but it's really horrible to see it being attacked like it is.
Obviously there are trolls on there just like the rest of the site.
My issue is people attacking all the threads on there with immature crap.
It's not really on that its being allowed to happen and MN are not doing anything to stop it.
