MNHQ - please can we have some kind of header on the News Section?

Please? Just one that says (in fairly large type so everyone notices ) "To avoid upsetting other posters, please ensure that thread titles do not included graffic or detailed information."

It is a little thing I know but at the moment I feel physically sick each time I click on active convos and see yet another horrific act described in the thread titles.

I understand that the acts need to be noticed, I know everyone wants to jump up and down and shout about it but they can do that even without a graffic thread title!

I don't want to hide news as there are lots of very interesting news stories on there that I do not want to miss out on simply because of selfish and thoughtless titles.

Please MNHQ?

Hi all,
We tend to allow Mumsnet to self-police in things like this - i.e. there is a general community pressure by way of suggestion/reminder to be sensitive in titles - rather than setting up hard and fast rules.

That said we can see that lots of people would rather not be confronted by the more gruesome news when they come to MN, so we are very happy to move things to the correct category (eg to In the News) if they're not posted up there and we'll also look at modifying and highlighting our Talk philosophy to give folks some guidance on this.

Thanks for raising it.

If only we'd listened, maybe you'd all still be here .
