This might be fairly urgent...

Isn't it better to give the benefit of the doubt, rather than run down someone who is potentially suicidal already?.

Mnhq know enough about us all... They banned her for a reason. Too much just didn't add up

How do you know this??? Because i have reported a lot of suicide threads in a hope that mnhq can intervene maybe even call police but am told that they have only an email address and can't do anything. I am sure im not the only one

I wish MNHQ would just confirm so we can put our minds at rest about it one way or another ffs.

I totally agree DH.

Why is your dh foot haunted?

It's only haunted for halloween.

Righto :)

She has another thread now, and another nn. Can't link to it here but it's currently right at the top of most active threads.

I hope Wombat is getting support in RL

That's a worry that that's what you've been told Lemming. an email address can be enough to trace someone if the police are involved

a troll hunting thread.

Fwiw mn hq have ways and means of determining if someone isn't genuine rather than that they are genuine iyswim. i.e. it's not possible to prove definitively that a poster is genuine because they may be a first time poster, may have no history, etc.

But there can be ways of proving that someone isn't genuine.

Quite apart from anything that thread didn't add up and neither does coming back to protest your innocence. But if mn hq have removed it they will have valid reason for having done so, especially given they were posting on it earlier in the evening.

"an email address can be enough to trace someone if the police are involved" Mn aren't responsible for its users though - they have made that very clear over the years. If a poster wants to post here it is not up to mn hq to get the police involved unless e.g. a crime is being committed.

There's a few things she's said that don't match up now really. I hope MNHQ sort it in the morning so people know whether they are wasting their energy or not.

have just seen the other thread. and that writing style is extremely familiar and smacks of very prolific trolls of the past....

and really, genuinely, honestly, if you were removed from a website would you make this much effort to come back? really? get real.

Who do you think it is then WannaBe?

I've shared that information with mn hq chilling....

Totally agree Wanabee. I think if I was removed from a website after allegedly been found hanging only a couple of days ago coming back online would quite honestly be the last thing on my mind

Oops apologies for the typos in your name

When I get depressed, I go mute IRL. Writing to strangers online is my best way of processing my feelings. I suspect if I was suicidal, MN would be the first place I'd go & the only place I'd fight to be. I can't express myself verbally to people who might be hurt/scared by what I say or who I would waste precious energy trying to second-guess what they're thinking.

FWIW, I have asked DH to post on MN on my behalf before - didn't want to leave my live birth thread hanging. He posted from my account, as if I'd written it. I can't see him creating his own account or NCing on mine but that doesn't mean someone else's DH wouldn't.

Having said that, I have no way of knowing if Wombat is genuine or not but I'd rather give her the benefit of the doubt. I'll trust HQ's judgement on this though.

There's a bit of a difference between updating a birth thread and a man who has apparently just found his wife hanging herself hopping on her ipad right away to update the masses. Although that part of the story has changed a bit on the recent threads. Hmm.

well the story appears to have changed since a couple of days ago eh.

WannaBe what has changed?

AGnu Writing to strangers online is my best way of processing my feelings. I suspect if I was suicidal, MN would be the first place I'd go & the only place I'd fight to be.

I'm sure you're not alone feeling like that.

The thing is. When someone is mentally ill, their sense of reality is often skew. I know that i have posted some dramatic tosh at my lowest and then come back the next day and been mortified.

What did it cost me to post on wombats thread?? Ten minutes of my time that i would have been wasting elsewhere on the site anyway. It is triggering for me but its fibe.i CHOOSE to open the thread and offer some words of support. Is she genuine? Well she is certainly quite unwell isn't she?

I have health anxiety. I don't read general health threads as i find them too upsetting.

I couldn't give a shit whos shagging who on eastenders street farm and who said what in x factor so i don't open the threads. I rarely open a bfing thread as my dd is 9 now. I wont open a thread about rape as i have no experience and therefore cannot offer support.

So it really is easy - don't open the thread.

Maybe the folk posting on these threads feel a sense of support for posting on them.

I just wish the troll hunters would fuck ooff actually. I can make my own judgement and if its a troll ffs report and ignore.

This is worse than fucking school prefects who ime were nasty bastards at school.

The 'troll hunters' reported.... Mnhq were the ones who deleted and banned!

You support trolls then?

In the email she uploaded it said they had felted her the head and her account whilst she got support in real life...
