She was a prominent poster here for years Pauldacre but hasn't been around much for the last year or two. For those of us that do remember her, personal slatings of her are a bit harsh to read.

TheDailyMailSucksCocksInHell · 16/08/2009 22:19

This is all old time stuff I think, PDEB (jeez, these new names are a struggle for a two-fingered typist like myself), plus she was mostly on SN it seems.

NobodynearaYurtreadstheDM · 16/08/2009 22:22

Now I am confused!
My post has been deleted - Why exactly
I havent ever referred to anyone as journoscum (and I never would!)

All I did was to agree that someone had been nice to someone else in the past and that now that first someone is quoting what we say on MN in the Daily Mail..............

This is too weird for me

I am here forthwith going to disappear from MN - for the time being at least

Bye all

Yurt no you didnt I was referring to the name changer below. I have no idea why your post has been deleted!

TheDailyMailSucksCocksInHell · 16/08/2009 22:25

Did you mention her posting name Yurt? Cause we can't do that. She will have to be SWMNBN2, I s'pose....

Greensleeves · 16/08/2009 22:26

my first one has been deleted too

Are they deleting any posts with the journalist's posting name in? I didn't know we weren't meant to use it

isn't she still registered anyway?

Oh well, I've said my piece (and it's been deleted )

the poster in question was very kind and compassionate to me on a number of occasions. She gave good advice and was a lovely person. (I'm sure she still is, that bit sounds like an obituary)

So stick to slating the DM and leave the individual out of it. Says I.

NobodynearaYurtreadstheDM · 16/08/2009 22:27

Thanks Ledo

I wasmt affected by the whole mouldies ugh (thankfully)
But I have by this and really cant be bothered with MN anymore (after nearly 5 years!)
Its time to wave my white flag

Bye for now

masonicpixiesreadthedailymail · 16/08/2009 22:27

this is mine. Does it make my bum look big?

LedodgyDailyMailstinksofpoo · 16/08/2009 22:28

Ooh i've never had a message deleted before.

LedodgyDailyMailstinksofpoo · 16/08/2009 22:28

Sorry to hear that Yurt but I know exactly where you are coming from. x

saintlydamemrsturnip · 16/08/2009 22:30

nods at greeny's post.

NobodynearaYurtreadstheDM · 16/08/2009 22:30

WHy oh why is she allowed to write about us
But we arent allowed to say anything about her

Total double standards

StinkyFart · 16/08/2009 22:34

No it's not double standards

Why do you not get that?

Some of the stuff written about her is AWFUL

get yer pitchfork and take it somewhere else please

TIA

ahola · 16/08/2009 22:34

TheDailyMailSucksCocksInHell- there's already a SWMNBN2...

anyone like mine?

LedodgyDailyMailstinksofpoo · 16/08/2009 22:34

Because she has lifted quotes from a public website on the WWW. People on here are slagging her off personally and professionally based on one article. These two things are very different. Yes say you disagree with what she's done but whoever called her journoscum was out of order.

LedodgyDailyMailstinksofpoo · 16/08/2009 22:35

Sorry the thread as moved on my reply was to yurt.

Greensleeves · 16/08/2009 22:37

she is presumably not using MNers real life names though, just their posting names

and by using her posting name in talking about her, we are drawing a link between her RL name - which is on the article and has been used extensively on here since - and her MN name

maybe?

IOnlyReadtheDailyMailinCafes · 16/08/2009 22:37

Was going to twirl but it is all a bit nasty in here

TheDailyMailSucksCocksInHell · 16/08/2009 22:39

There's a SWMNBN2?

What did I miss?

PaulDacreEatsBabies · 16/08/2009 22:39

I don't think it's fair for us to know Ms Hardy's current posting name. You all know my current posting name, obviously (and my usual name, or you could if you did a search, I have referred to my "real" posting name in early posts under this one) but you don't know my actual name. We know that there is a MNer called Leah Hardy but to know her posting name as well would be invasive. as invasive as if you found out my RL name.

Nontheless, what she has done is ill judged and shitty and we all have the right to feel very aggrieved about it.

Mine seems rather tame in comparison
