Why was the first full thread deleted please @MNHQ?

Chersfrozenface · 23/08/2023 21:07

I want to know that as well.

ANameChangePresents · 23/08/2023 21:07

Hear, hear. Discussing an emergent matter of public record. It's news.

LilyMumsnet · 23/08/2023 21:09

Hi OP

We have removed the thread for legal reasons. We can't say more than that at the moment.

ANameChangePresents · 23/08/2023 21:10

Sod it. I edited out my disdain. Needless to say, it's absolute.

Hanones · 23/08/2023 21:11

Is this about that bloke who plays golf and abuses kiddies?

Mad.

BreadInCaptivity · 23/08/2023 21:12

Thank you for the update.

I see thread 2 has also been zapped.

I hope you will be fighting any attempt to censure the information discussed @MNHQ, which is in the public domain.

@MNHQ you know what this person is like - a vexatious litigatant. Don’t give in!!!!

Somanycats · 23/08/2023 21:15

I know people were archiving the threads but I can't remember who or where. Can anyone give a heads up!

NotTerfNorCis · 23/08/2023 21:19

Well we know what a certain person has been doing instead of Twitter then.

Frantically trying to stuff the genie back in the bottle.

It won't work.

Can people honestly just change their name/sex to evade being on the sex offenders list?

SabrinaThwaite · 23/08/2023 21:20

I’d like to say thank you to MNHQ for letting the threads stand for so long, given what has happened in the past when any discussion has been attempted.

It has been enlightening.

BreadInCaptivity · 23/08/2023 21:23

Linking to the article on X or repeating the crimes will only get this thread Swiss cheesed or pulled also.

So no point.

Better to offer MNHQ some incentive to push back.

However we see you Hayden. We know what you've done.

We won't forget.

Apparently so.

And avoid the ban on entry to the USA for those convicted of “moral turpitude”.

Anyone know how many times was the Redux article viewed on Twitter? Most of the stuff discussed on those threads was in the
article.

Hear hear. I don't doubt that it would have been much easier for MNHQ to just delete at the start, but they didn't.

I suspect things have been made very difficult for them, so I don't think it's helpful for anyone to harangue or berate them over this.

A lot of the name change stuff seems to rely on the person who changes their name being honest about that going forward. Completely missing that fact that apart from those who didn't like their original name of vagina wincklebottom, some rather unsavoury characters might decide to use changing their name to escape the bits of their past they aren't very proud of.

Add in being able to changes the sex as well and you create your own history black hole.

So a person could be on the sex offenders register change from male and called Brian Smith on the SO register to female Brittney Jones and unless Brittney divulged their previous names and sex to a prospective employer say then it won't necessarily connect the dots on the dbs check as the system trusts the sex offender to tell the truth and update the relevant departments.what could possibly go wrong

MrsPepperp0t · 23/08/2023 21:30

I'd just like to say for posterity that one of the best things on those 2 threads was the number of posters saying how much the threads being in active had opened their eyes. So thanks for that, MN. That genie is out and all the legal threats in the world can't change that.

I believe this individual has acknowledged in court that he can be perceived as litigious.
I don’t think the vexatious nature of his lawyering has been tested in court- though of course we can all draw our own conclusions.
