Hi all!

There have been quite a few suggestions in diacussions on childfree topic that it might be better if threads don't show in active. Most of us don't always check what topic is the thread we click on in active and considering some issues around childfree etc, it might be better just not shown.

Would that be ok? Can of course put it to vote on the topic

Hi @Cakesandbabes thanks for your suggestion. We try and avoid taking whole topics out of Active where we can - we want people to find areas of the board that are interesting to them and as a fairly new area of the site it would be an advantage to make people aware it exists.

What is the thinking behind taking it out? Do remember that you can report posts to us if you think they're breaking guidelines.

Hi there @ItsNotRocketSalad . It's definitely worth reporting those sorts of posts. If it looks like someone is being deliberately inflammatory, we'd see that as reason to take it down, particularly if they're continuing having been asked politely to desist, or doing this sort of thing repeatedly. We can also post on those threads ourselves, if that helps, to point out that Mumsnet is a forum for everyone. Do just drop us a line where you see this sort of thing and we can take it from there.

We'd much rather tackle that sort of posting at source than take a board out of active, particularly such a new board, as it means fewer people will happen across it and it may simply fizzle out, which would be a real shame.
