I can see this hasn't improved at all in the 24 hours I spent away.

Anyway, before I go again I need to say a couple of things

  1. I'm not a Moldie so people can feck off with their snide remarks and any assumptions (from the last thread and any future remarks). I'm not b*ggering off to post there.
  2. I was invited to join. I couldn't be ar$ed. I then signed up to see what all the fuss was about last week or whenever it was. My membership was never approved and no reason offered so I assume I was rejected. [shrug] Do I give a damn? No. Do I feel hurt or unworthy? No. Do I navel gaze and wonder about it? No. Are some of my "friends" Moldies? Yes. So what?
  3. Do I think Moldies have anything to apologise for? No more than people who have posted here TBH. There has been bad behaviour on both sides IMO.

That's it.
[wave]

Hello all and Happy New Year to anyone who hasn't had a Happy new Year from us yet.

We've been tempted in last few days to come on and say please can we wrap this up, not because we want to stop folks from talking about what they want to talk about (as if they'd take any notice anyways ) but because it seemed as if the thread/s was/were just re hashing old arguments and in the process more folks seem to be getting hurt/cross/upset, which, as we always say, is not what Mumsnet is here for.

On the other hand every time we've been about to post the thread seemed to have died down and the conversation become more positive (or at least moved on to discussing piles or real life mould ... you know who you are) and we've been loathe to bump the thread, which is one reason why we haven't been all over these threads. That and the fact that some of us have been on hols And some of us still are (officially anyway )

But we did wonder if maybe it is possible that it might just be time to move on and talk about some of the other fascinating stuff on Mumsnet this fine Saturday night ... erm like fixing someone's car and washable sanitary towels...you know the big stuff in life.

Anyway, as we say we're not in the business of censorship, but neither do we want to see any posters, old or new, dissed, hurt or upset.

Am afraid we've (nearly) all been let out of MNHQ for the night tonight (yippee!) but as ever, any complaints about this post, this thread, or indeed anything else that's wrong in life, please address them to [email protected]

RustyBear · 03/01/2009 20:09

Carrie - why don't you just let the 'new look' loose - should sweep any other discussions straight off the board......

Thomcat · 03/01/2009 20:11

So, part 3 and is there anything new being said? Just wondering? And are people starting to feel better or do people just want to keep talking about it, sort of like picking at a scab?

It kind of feels like the Daily Mail and Ross/Brand thing, but MN is the DM and MNoldies are Ross/Brand!

chipmonkey · 03/01/2009 20:14

ScottishMummy is such a pillar of sense.

chipmonkey · 03/01/2009 20:15

That's one thing I miss about being a child, TC. Soooo many more opportunities to pick at scabs!

LittleDonkeyCarrieMaryMumsnet · 03/01/2009 20:15

Like your thinking RustyBear... sadly need a couple of the folks who're on hols to come back before we do that, but at this rate we may have to jet em back early !

Now really am off, dh getting cross!

WWB used to be the one to go to about washable sanitary towels. And there was once a happy thread about what to do with the menstral stew left over from washing the pads. Now tell me the good ole days weren't better.

GeraldineMumsnet · 03/01/2009 20:32

Excellent. I TOLD my esteemed employers that people would think Gerry was a bloke.

Oh no, come on, let's just keep all talking about it for the sake of it, for sport, wasn't this the point of starting a part 3 in the first place? Because part 3 was started but nothing actually needed to be said did it (?), it was just started, for fun, or so that people could keep on (and on and on) airing their grievances, so come on, let's just keep at it!
