"if you truely thought of someone as a friend and put them forward and they are vetoed...if you were
a true friend would you than not say, ah, well, stick it than?" doesn't that imply then that you will only be friends with people who like all your other friends and you only expect people to be friends with you if you like all of their friends?

Life just doesn't work like that does it?

Have no unknowns on facebook, I seem to have a bloody lot of them on msn though!

2shoes · 06/01/2009 12:57

mamazon I have reported your post

soapbox · 06/01/2009 12:58

Why on earth would I want to give you a link [bizzare emotion]

VinegarTits · 06/01/2009 13:02

You can give the link so people can see for themselves where it is and apply for a membership once you decide to let people in again

But your not allowed to give the link are you, why is the location such a big secret?

soapbox · 06/01/2009 13:04

Well it isn't so much 'not allowed' as 'don't want to'. There isn't anyone in the centre of all of this saying 'DON'T GIVE OUT A LINK TO THE SITE'!

You can only apply for membership if you are invited to do so.

harleyd · 06/01/2009 13:04

vt..i think mi5 security would be easier to crack than this

pagwatch · 06/01/2009 13:04

The location is secret because it is in a disused underground station near the Embankment.

Oh no. That is James Bond isn't it.

I am in a bit of a muddle today. Sorry

FairLadyRantALot · 06/01/2009 13:06

wannabe....I don't ecpect all my friends to like eachother....well...most of my friends don't even know eachother....however if several of my friends who know eachother set out somewhere else, and not really caring if I was there, too...I think I would take that personal, tbh....how could you not....[puzzled emoticon]

FairLadyRantALot · 06/01/2009 13:07

lol pagwatch....moldies seems more fightclub than Bondstyle

wannaBe · 06/01/2009 13:08

given the amount of vitriol that has been posted towards moldies over the past two weeks or so, do people really expect that they'll be wanted over there anyway?

the people posting that they want a link and want to apply to join aren't upset that moldies exists, they're upset that they're not well enough thought of to be considered to be invited. You can't have it both ways.

Either people don't like the concept of moldies, or they completely understand the concept and want to know whether they can receive an invite.

which is it then?

VinegarTits · 06/01/2009 13:09

So you dont want to give the link out, and you can only apply for membership if you are invited right?

So, how do you lot over there decide who gets an invite? huh?

FairLadyRantALot · 06/01/2009 13:09

I don't want a link, and no I don't want to be a moldie, neither, tbh...by what I have herd on here about it, it is a dark place to belong too

tiredemma · 06/01/2009 13:10

By THOMCAT "Ahh see, I only accept people I know on FB. I have to have met them or have know them well enough to know their MN name without having to think abou it. I once accepted someone I didn't really know and saw their status updates and wall activity every day and kept thinking who the hell is this person? So now only accept people who I know well or are proper RL friends."

I think that one person was me!!

Thomcat · 06/01/2009 13:11

But if someone arranged a big girls night out and X wanted to invite Y and the person who arranged the night out really didn't get on with Y would it not be ok for her to ask her not to invite her.

Can you make head or tail of that sentence?

Too many hers aye.

But if I arranged a big girls night out and Sheila wanted to invite Caroline and I really didn't get on with Caroline would it not be ok for me to ask Sheila to not invite her?

morningpaper · 06/01/2009 13:11

I think people who want a link and want to ask to apply just want reassurance that it IS as harmless as people are saying i.e. why can't they ask to join, if they are well known and liked and are being told that most non-invites were over-sights?? It does seem baffling.

I could post the link but it is just a box that says USERNAME and PASSWORD. I would do it to reassure people but I don't know why the Moldies aren't doing so? It's harmless enough to do so isn't it? I'm a bit baffled by it TBH

foxytocin · 06/01/2009 13:11

is it really true that there is/was a banner at the top of all pages saying 'this is not narnia' or words to that effect?

that was the most surreal part of this saga bunfight for me.

Thomcat · 06/01/2009 13:13

Tiredemma - have you asked to be my friend on FB? Really? This person is still on my FB acct but I have no idea who they are in RL or on MN! Is that you then? Really? Odd cos I know you quite well on here, we've chatted quite a lot actually.

Lizzylou · 06/01/2009 13:13

Ummm, TC, those are the names of me and my mate!
Why did she not want to invite me?????
What has she said about me?

morningpaper · 06/01/2009 13:13

posting the link to moldies would be like posting this

pagwatch · 06/01/2009 13:13

Can I just raise my hand ( on behalf of many people who are neither for or anti in this mellee) and say that actually I don't want a link.
But if anyone has any chocolates left over from christmas I am feeling a little peckish.

Fairylady
Fightclub would mean that they are all one person

FairLadyRantALot · 06/01/2009 13:14

thomcat...but it isn't a big night out, is it? It is about an online forum, where surely just because you don't like the odd particular person, than you just don't bother to much with those posts...
so, twiglett don't like custardo ( that is how rumours are started, isn't it...and I am only joking...I would not know if they like or not.....it;s just there are rumours that twiglett started it off, iykwim...)

pagwatch · 06/01/2009 13:15

OK

"neither for or anti"

I honestly didn't post that to out any pedants.
I am just farking stupid.
Apparently

Thomcat · 06/01/2009 13:15

Morningpaper - anything that was linked to on moldies would be picked to death and every word scrutinised and analysied etc cos there are people who want it to be something it's not. I couldn't care less who linked what, I have nothing to hide and never read anything that was about anyone on MN.

VinegarTits · 06/01/2009 13:16

I dont want an invite actually, what gets me is they come here patronaising people saying its not vetoed, we dont mean to leave people out, we are not cherry picking, you will eventually get an invite, when its bullshit, because they are, they cant even give out the link to the site (whats the harm in people knowing the link when they cant get on it anyway, its like knowing the link to your internet banking and not having the password) thats how elitist they are being

Your telling people on here to get over it, you need to get over yourselfs more like pmsl

FairLadyRantALot · 06/01/2009 13:16

pagwatch, I have never actually watched fightclub...only know that one line from teh whole movie along the lines of : we don't talk about fightclub,, blablabla....
