Do-gooding clique thread

[ArsenicFaceCream]

Thanks for the name dozie

I don't think it's wrong Floss [grininahat]

Ready Brek isn't porridge, it's dust Floss. I'll make you some proper stuff

A clique of posters mass-reporting a perfectly harmless and supportive thread is pretty much the definition of MN bullying.

I'm cheering you on from the sidelines guys, please don't be chased off the board

Yes it isdust but I'm not women enough for proper porridge Arse [wimphatsmile]

Thank you for the support Plinth I would give you a hat but MNHQ have not remembered to top up my photo/picture allowance

I agree with Arse

Quite plinth

And a poster (Why) who is camping FGS has been standing in a field from the off banging on about The Poster Who Must Not Be Named (TPWMNBN) and shrilly teling us what this thread is about.

Last night TPWMNBN trolls us. This morning Why is here before anyone else posting one message after another telling us to leave TPWMNBN alone, insulting us (we are like vicious schoolgirls) holding us responsible for TPWMNBN's mental health.... And all based on what?!

NOTHING. We don't want to talk about that poster.

But conveniently Why isn't interested in hearing about that.

MNHQ don't seem interested in the technicality either.

Keep Calm and wear a hat Arse

It is frustrating that we are being bullied yet again however there have been 2 very supportive posters who have commented and have offered their support of this thread which makes me feel that it is important that we keep going.

Hopefully MNHQ can see for themselves the lengths we have gone to too try and get away from other threads & posters and instead of deleting us, delete those that want our heads.

Three maybe?

Gosh and Monte and Plinth?

I think this thread was never going to be able to stand without a bit of conflict. The "agree with us or f*ck off you SM hating troll" attitude has been prevalent for so long, I'm just surprised there aren't more attempts at derailing.

Here's your hat Amy.

...or do they?

Maybe it's our hats they're after, didya ever think of that Flossy?

Not boasting at all but I do actually own a real life set of novelty hats, including the chicken one and also one that resembles a Christmas pudding.

If this thread (and subsequent follow ons) is still going in four months time, I might start wearing it out in public (seasonal y'know).

That will out me for sure

Oh no!

The has gone.

Who nicked it??

Not boasting my arse Where does one buy a Christmas pudding hat?

Thanks Perp

Is it like this Fair?

Ok, I have debating posting this but we have a conflict here.

I reported a stream of why's posts in an effort to keep the contentious subject off the thread.

AmyMumsnet sent my the following message at 12.03pm

Hi Arsenic,

Thanks for your reports. We wouldn't really count these posts as harassment. Given that the thread is a spin-off from another thread it is only natural that people will bring it up. As long as it doesn't turn into a TAAT then we're just going to leave it as it is, otherwise it will lead to us stifling one set of views in preference of another.

Hope that makes sense.

Best wishes
Amy
MNHQ

Fair enough, It probably isn't harassment, I only reported at all to try to get the subject dropped......

But just 16 minutes earlier AmyMumsnet had posted on thread asking us not to mention said subjects.

So I'm confused [confused face]

It os 'only natural' that deraillers will bring these subjects up, but we are being sternly warned not bring them up (when we don't want to), under threat of thread deletion?

Hmm, well let's hope there's no further attempts to turn it into a TAAT then.

Hmm indeed

I've had enough for one day.

Happy hat wearing

Is it wrong that when I read this comment:
"agree with us or f*ck off you SM hating troll" that I mistakenly read SM as scottishmummy instead of stepmother? Just for a moment though!

Flossy - are you sure it was twat and not prat? My Dad used to tell me that a prat was a pregnant prawn - but I doubt he was right either.

Oh boo to fucking italic fail!
