hasn't this gone far enough? these threads are being allowed to stand which considering the "policies" of the BNP and the views expressed by "activists" is appalling. yes, free speech is wonderful, but some of these threads can be seen as inciting racial hatred, there are many, many, disablist, homophobic, racist remarks made and implied and they always go the same way. the threads are started to cause a bunfight. the BNP will not get anymore supporters on here, so why be deliberately controversial?

mn is a self-moderated site. this is great and one of the reasons i use it. however, the mners are now moderating and saying that we have had enough. we have complained a LOT about this type of thing - please take note!

i think she's said that before, to lenin. and the subject of lesbians, looking like truckers or not, hasn't come up again so the promise is entirely untested.

she can't apologise to everyone in person, greensleeves. and she'd pretty much need to. you're just getting sucked into the whole 'poor me' thing, we've all seen it a hundred times.

ChickensNeedOpposableThumb · 12/05/2010 19:12

Nope, would be nice if MNHQ were to explain why this isn't covered by their trolling policy.

larrysgal · 12/05/2010 19:12

What about the people who have left because of your posts though? You can't talk to them, can you?

Aitch · 12/05/2010 19:13

i don't believe you, daftpunk. i believe you have deliberately provoked people on here for months, knowing that you are hurting people.

aren't you sick of yourself?

She ignored all comments about the BNP being anti Catholic on the BNP thread.

She clearly knows fuck all about theology in general and Catholism in paticular.

She ignores all questions and continues to post more and more offensive statements.

If anyone pulls her up on being offensive to a paticular poster she comes up with a load of shit about 'actually Lenin/Riven and I are really good friends and we are just enjoying the banter/debate'

Aitch · 12/05/2010 19:14

agree with justa, we can't tolerate this shite any more.

MalsFlannel · 12/05/2010 19:14

If you're really sorry DP then you'll go away.

Just go away and find somewhere else that agrees with your views and won't be hurt when you start your silly nonsense.

Enough is enough. You've lost any credibility.

I went back and had a little look at some posts. You and Reality were joking with each other and arguing over who loved one another more.

Read up the thread. Read what Reality is saying about you know.

BOF and you were joking - look what you've done to BOF.

Just piss off., really, just piss off, you're not welcome here anymore.

Aitch · 12/05/2010 19:15

except that this is not news to her, justa, she KNOWS what she's doing and the effect she's having. Because She Is A Troll.

Greensleeves · 12/05/2010 19:17

I'm not getting sucked in, I just think more and more of this "she's evil" "no, I'm not" "yes, she's evil" isn't getting us anywhere

If daftpunk is sincere about apologising, then I don't see why she shouldn't undertake to STOP deliberately antagonising and upsetting people

she knows when she is doing it, so she could undertake to stop

is all

ahundredtimes · 12/05/2010 19:17

Yes I agree with Aitch

It's trolling and is designed to twist liberal knickers - not that she really cares, but it's entertaining - and then to rely on that liberal culture to not ban her.

Greeny, she's apologised before. Then she asks what music everyone likes, and says she didn't realize, sometimes she says its because she doesn't know very much, everyone is much cleverer than her and she needs learning, sometimes because she doesn't think it through properly and then after a while she starts all over again . . .

it's all very deliberate

this my analysis after having not been involved in very many DP threads at all. It's quite bald though I think.

i think justabout sums it up 'if you are as intelligent as you claim you would understand this simple suggestion.'

why not find a forum where there are like minded people? nobody here shares you views

but why is she doing it in the first place?

and i don't believe anyone has said she is evil, greensleeves. personally i think she's pathetic.

lou031205 · 12/05/2010 19:21

Well, I guess I need to step away from this thread. I just can't reconcile a thread about 'Pro-BNP threads' turning into a hounding of one specific poster, Daftpunk. I am not a new poster. I am not naive and vulnerable being sucked in by DP. But it doesn't sit right with me that Daftpunk is being publicly flogged for a whole multitude of threads over a prolonged period of time, presumably as a result of a highly charged atmosphere following a deeply unsettling General Election.

MN policy is that if you have a problem with threads or posts therin, you contact them. Each and every post has a 'Report' link. MNHQ can do what they like with that information. Presumably if they feel that DP's posts warrant it, they will act.

Like I say. I am not disagreeing with the sentiments of aggrieved posters on this thread. But I do disagree with the way this has turned into a public lynching.

Enjoy.

Greensleeves · 12/05/2010 19:22

sorry, "evil" just flippant shorthand

wasn't trying to make things worse

Justabout;

I am sorry... and you're right. maybe I've got too wrapped up in politics (and myself) too notice alot of what's going on and how people feel about me...

Aitch · 12/05/2010 19:23

it's hardly the fault of the election, lou... she's been trolling for a while now. like 100x says, it's absolutely transparent.

noddyholder · 12/05/2010 19:24

DP is forever harping on about how she doesn't want minorities (gay,disabled,immigrants)compromising her life and her childrens education so why can't we say that we don't want a minority (bnp)posting hateful things here.

Aitch · 12/05/2010 19:25

oh jeeeeez. look, dp, why are you here?

ChickensNeedOpposableThumb · 12/05/2010 19:25

I don't think its a lynching, I think its what happens when someone is consistently trolling and nothing is done about it.

scoutliam · 12/05/2010 19:25

Two things here really Is dp a troll?
I don't know never read her threads and leave one if she turns up.
If and it would appear to be the case from reading this she's being offensive to individuals or to groups of people then of course her posts should be reported and removed.

Re banning the BNP I think that's a very bad idea for reasons given earlier.
If we pretend that these views are not help by people we can become complacent and that's when these twats get votes.

BNP are loosing seats and votes, looking at Barking and Dagenham this is because protesters got out there to encourage voting and to campaign against the twats.

If the bnp aren't heard they actually gain power and we are all against that.
