If you (still) feel the need to discuss Moldies [part 2]

[YetMoreTech]

This thread is a continuation of this one. That one had become too big for its own boots the system to handle.

blogs are very differenct to secret societies imo

VVVQV said that apologies were issued to the gracious and worthy....not invites

It seems to me that the problem now with Moldies is not that people have joined but that they aren't leaving it.

This is sooooo last year!

I was never popular at secondary school, and nor have i been particularly popular on here. I just posted very prolifically for a while. Otherwise I'd be grinning along with that, elf. Sadly, I know full well what it's like to be bullied and picked on, which is why I'm so devastated to have inadvertently made others feel the same. I've been doing my best to try and make amends, and posted with good intention on the "lets talk thread" but it seems that a handfull of posters seem intent to besmirch my name and make stuff up about me to suit their agenda. It's almost as though they've been waiting for a moment like this to haul me through the coals and tell me I shouldnt be here.

I think I'm gonna change my name. I'm fed up of being picked on and having "vvq this" vvvqv that" posted about me in every bust up. I know I fucked up and I know how I fucked up, but I wont have this whole debacle attributed to me as though I am some ringleader with all the "popular" former mners. Far from it.

"behaving graciously " This is getting funnier,

i don't know what is worse...the fact that people are STILL rowing over this or that people are laughing at the people who are trying to make it right

at least the cards are on the table now

piffle it wont last

Piffle - I have to ask - did your ma suffer from the dodgy meat at all?

VVQV - I don't think anyone should have to change their name.

I'm not sure what the answer is to this constant conflict. The answer is as hard to fathom as Shergars grave...
Or which people wear Boden Fun Cardigans with dogs knitted on them.
Now they are a group worth pursuing and persecuting on long threads.

VVVQV - I was not popular at school either. The only time I think people knew my name was when I had a proper fight with the most popular girl in my year over some gossip that had been told to me. Got very boring but divided the whole school year.

Anyway, sometimes, people just need time to get over everything. The following term, nobody remembered this fight between me and the popular girl, it was business as usual.

twinset, i made a flippant, childish comment the other day and then apologised for it. The "apologies to those behaving graciously" thing was just a dig at those, who unlike yourself, were treating this as feeding time at the shark pool. IT's been corrected and restated many times, but some people keep dragging it back up as a "truth" with added extras.

no Mum was fine... dammit, but the flatulence could have shut any dissenter up...
Nasty incident of granny pebbledash on Gods great white telephone too.
Grim

VVVQV, you don't have to change your name, of course you don't.

It's now 2009, let's just let this drop, eh?

hmmm so possibly she wasn't completely unscathed then....

oo-er! me too elf! Although said bully left me alone afterwards so that was one bonus I suppose.

ROFL @ Piffle's Granny pebbledash

ewww piffle.....!

Name changing is a good tactic VVV - I do it sometimes. Never for malicious reasons but just for a bit of fresh air.

Seriously though, it's not reasonable to ask people to stop being mouldy or by inference leave MN. We can't and we shouldn't. We have to keep welcoming them and hope they like coming here.

Gotta hand it to Thomcat because she does laconic like no one's business!

Too right.

I was never in the in-crowd in high-school, either. I wore dark eye makeup and red lipstick and brightly-patterned scarves, smoked Gauloises (Blondes), went out with foreigners who were far too old for me, and skived class whenever possible.

sorry VVVQ I did not mean to drag it up again, I am loosing my place on these threads, cannot compete with who said what and when.

I think I was quite vitriolic when I first found out as I was hurt, now it is funny and sad for moldies caught in the crossfire.

I think a name change may be a good idea, sad but it may help. I found it very hard when I lost my name.

Actually, it was Sherman's Naturettes lights at first.

Oh, and Dunhills from time to time.

whitenoise I dont think people are laughing at people trying to make it better, the whole situation is quite funny though.

Those of us who are laughing are posting as normal on the rest of the website keeping MN ticking over
