The troll has woken from his nap 😂. It might be more entertaining if they had anything interesting or amusing to say.

It’s on my thread in legal stuff too. Have reported as many as I can see but they are still there

NovaForesta · 12/08/2026 00:52

Yep, only seen one thread disappear (started by the troll) but none of the posts. Where’s the Night Watch team tonight? Hopefully someone will be along soon. Some of the posts have been up for more than an hour.

Thank you in advance NW for dealing with this idiot. 😊

Was just coming here to post this, having reported it and then realised what the time is in the UK. I really don't know what people get out of such blatant trolling, everyone just rolls their eyes and scrolls on.

Am actively looking for troll posts and reporting any I find. May as well do something useful with my insomnia.....

It is awful. They need paid staff at night to keep an eye on things.

Agreed. I’m often up late and have volunteered in the past for NW but was told not needed. I beg to differ tonight!

It's amusing more than anything, given how childish its efforts are, although I do feel bad if more sensitive threads get spammed by it. Some men need better hobbies.

Ah well, I'm sure Night Watch will get onto it soon.

Every atheist I’ve ever met had a bad experience in childhood with forced religion. Tell us your story. @OneGreatHam

OtterlyAstounding · 12/08/2026 01:38

That's nice, dear.

kittensinthekitchen · 12/08/2026 02:07

That took an hour 😂😂

OtterlyAstounding · 12/08/2026 02:10

Thank you to the unpaid Night Watchers, but boo, hiss, to Mumsnet not paying someone! It's a bit bloody slack.
