If you (still) feel the need to discuss Moldies, please do it here so folks can hide this if they want to.

[LittleDonkeyCarrieMaryMumsnet]

Well hopefully the title says it all. There's been a suggestion, and we agree, that as we did with Baby P and the Mc Canns we just have one thread where anyone who feels they still have anything to add on this subject can post and those who'd rather move on can hide it away.

It feels strange to put this thread in site stuff as we are definitely not wanting to encourage further discussion of Moldies (we have presents to wrap too you know ) but we weren't sure where else to put it.

We will delete any new Moldies threads that are started, so please feel free to report them in case we miss any (what with wrapping the presents and all...)

And if you do want to carry on the discussion please remember that Mumsnet's here to make everyone's lives easier and not the reverse, and that Christmas is a time of goodwill to all mumsnetters past, present and future

Thanks,
MNHQ

I am agog at self importance of folks assuming all us Moldies talk about is mumsnetters
Fuck me, you'd all be gutted to know the truth.
We don't!

i was nominated and vetoed, and i dont give a fuck (i had said i wasnt interested in joining)

it's just another forum, regardless of who set it up or how its run

run by people we dont actually know, for the majority of us

faceless internet peoples

No, we can guess, assume, wonder, but we can't ever know
That's the problem and why some people are a little annoyed

Yes, I know what you mean Stealth. But I like MNHQ's usual stance of minimum intervention and I feel they're in danger of overreacting here because the situation is a bit close to home. (Not talking specifically about Liffey's post, which was a good old-fashioned personal attack. Much as I'm a fan of Liffey's in general.)

Hula , I remember you well. You were very sweet and sent me some training pants for DD many years ago. I posted under another name then.

That's just it, Hula. I never left.

I posted on here, someone will probably dig it up, that I was having a break because of having DS and my folks being here for a month.

And so I did.

For a few weeks, I wasn't online at all.

No flouncing, no pissed off-ness.

Nada.

Even now, this is the most I've been on in one day since DS was born.

and here comes all this, EIS, I can't say it but you're a bitch and a stalwart and all that.

eh?

Okay, whatever.

Right. someone needs to post the short version here for the 8 million who have been off doing their Xmas shopping who keep tripping up over this thread and going WTF?

Or are you just being evil, Desi?

Oh blimey Desi. Now you're asking.

Fuck, I can count on one hand the number of people I had a proper ruck with, and three of them ain't here anymore cuz they got banned.

Well let's put it to the vote shall we?

Do I stay or do I go?

Those of you who'know' me - am I still worth having around or shall I get lost ?

I tend to communicate in a calm way. I really don't like to use, or read, trite phrases like get a fucking life etc.. Just not my style. I don't doubt that somebody who can be abrasive and contemptuous to the masses can be matey and supportive to others.

IF anybody had enough time on their hands to search my posts then they'd quickly see that I'm definitely not antagonistic or nasty.

Oh TALD, don't be daft.

Who did you get banned Expat? Was it just a quick word with MN and then they were banned?

Oh Wilf I heart you

BALD, are you saying you're a Moldie?

bit petulant that toys/boys. becuase theres not a one person who is going to genuinely come here and say ( in their real name, lots of shit houses about) "right fuck of then!"

and neither would the sensible people of MN want to be associated with that.

thats why they can't understand why your asking that question of MN - and not asking yourself re: moldies.

free country and all that - do what you like

Can I just point out that as far as I can make out, MNHQ pulled that thread because they had politely asked people on it twice to stop posting there and all post on one thread (this one), and people kept posting anyway.

So they pulled it. Fair enough. Nothing to do with anything anyone said.

there are people on here that i don't paricularly like and am sure there is no-one that likes everyone. and i'm pretty sure tons hate me.

yet i do not post my gripes about them.

I'm more the capable of evil

Actually custardo, that's precisely what someone said to me this afternoon. In their real name as far as I can see. I think the words were 'Fuck off back to Moldies.'

I would genuinely like to say I hope everyone has a good Christmas - this is going to be my last MN post, at least for a while, and I do hope everyone manages to have a lovely Christmas.

yep, mn oldies

As a rule I certainly wouldn't do that either. I am not intending to continue doing it.

Custy am not petulant, please don't think that. I feel so upset about all of this.

I never ever thought about the consequences, I was just so glad to refind some mates who I'd 'lost' that I didn't think about others.

I am so sad that many many people have been hurt, good people, people that I feel very fond of.

But is there anything wrong with pointing out that expat is generally combative given that apparently she was posting the likes of 'bring it on'?

'Who did you get banned Expat? Was it just a quick word with MN and then they were banned? '

NO ONE, Liffey.

I got NO ONE banned because that would require effort and if you really knew me you would know that I am too fucking lazy to give a fuck and get OVER it.

People who got banned because of stuff they did on the board that they extended to off the board.

In fact, I only think two got banned. I know one did because of some other shit that was so far beyond me I only know speculation.

So puh-leeze chill out.

I can count on one hand the number of people I've had a proper ruck with because I just can't be arsed as I am a lazy fuck and have always admitted that and even people like Custy have known that from the get go.
