are you no longer mumsnet? why is nct advertising you as their e-group?

[AngryFromManchester]

and why does it say so at the top?

? Where? Links?

Sorry I forgot I had changed my name. I am Fio. There may well have been a whole debate on this but I have not logged in for a while and was rather suprised

look above you flamingo. Nct have links aswell, do you want those?

weird, if you link in through nct site you get the big logo up top. maybe mn get a percentage or summat

here

It only just appeared when I refreshed the page after posting!

I am very involved with NCT and had no idea!

The corporate colours don't really match do they - make my teeth itch! Going to see if I can get a screen without the nct logo

Nope, can't do it. Looks stupid. Why not ask this question to Belinda Phipps too on the live webchat?

This seems really strange - I've seen nothing about this up 'til now.

Eek, what's happening? Where have the MN Angels gone?

It's only the talk section, it seems.

But you know this really pisses me off. I like it that MN is separate from everything else I do, and now it's not

is this an official partnership?

are we still allowed to slag off the NCT?

Seems a bit strange to send NCT members over here, especially given the NCT bashing that sometimes happens.

It would be a bit like being invited to a party and finding out no-one likes you

There are a lot of NCT members on here already who seem to survive though. But does seem an odd partnership. Wonder if anyone's benefitting financially.......

There is a difference between finding MN though and being directed here as a NCT forum.

Eeeewwwww....

Oooh, weird, if you come in via NCT the logo changes!

I guess the NCT just thinks that we're so amazing their own forum was redundant!

They never had a forum AFAIK, just an egroup, which was a bit shit.

Oh dear, now the NCT logo won't go away even when I log in again. Gah!! What happened!? Make it go away!!

This happened aaages ago and was well publicised at the time

I think Mumsnet donate £1 to the NCT for every new member that joins, or something

Hello,
We've let the NCT have access to Mumsnet Talk from their site. If you click from nct site then you get the joint logo.

Basically they thought it better to have our forums rather than to re-invent the wheel as it were. And we didn't mind.

Oh yes and we donate £1 as MP said for everyone who joins MN from NCT.

Well I don't get it, unless I follow your link and clickthrough to NCT&Mumsnet EGroup...

Looks awful, but then HQ are well aware I do not like anything new

they are advertising you as their new forum though (not e group, that was my mistake )
