Harry & Meghan - watching and waiting (no.13)

[yolofish]

A new thread in which to discuss what happens next in this saga.

And best wishes to mustress and thanks for her excellent thread titles.

This was my post on the last thread, which is full now. Just to let people know.

I've had a PM from Mustresssaying she's not coming back to the thread or creating another due to a particularly unpleasant post from a certain poster on here. Not sure which one as wasn't on here overnight. Will scroll back and have a look. A real shame given what's she's got going on in RL

This is thread 13, I think.

Wendy, have pmed you.

Morning - I'm thinking of Mustress at hospital and hoping it goes as well as these things can.

Am presuming the unpleasant post was a PM as there's nothing on the last thread that fits the bill .

And for the record no unpleasant posts to Mustress have been sent by me .

I agree Elizabeth..., this is thread 13. 'The one for TheMustressMhor'.

Thanks to yolofish for starting the thread.
Link to the previous thread if needed.

I hope Mustress returns. It must feel horrid to get bullied off a thread series you've started

Lucky 13 - thanks yolofish for starting this one on behalf of the lovely Mustress, all good wishes to her.

Meanwhile, everyone's cashing in on the Harry & Meghan drama:

Hope Mustress comes back as well. Thank you for the new thread.

< hoping for a cat picture to cheer me up, rainy morning >

Wendy I have also pm'd you.

13! bugger, sorry about that, I will ask MNHQ to change the number in the header (do I report myself?)

Can I ask that we drop this idea of a group of posters deserving of the nickname scolds ?

Perhaps orginally it was meant to be funny but new posters don't know what's going on , some longterm posters seem bent on stirring up dislike against others and others I'm sure just want to read posts about the RF .

It doesn't help the thread to have name calling .

It's also a very misogynistic term .

Hi yolo - are you on the app? There are three little dots in the bottom left-hand corner of your post, click on them and you'll see the Report option.

Picture is for you GracefulHippo, as you asked. My cat was determined not to let me start work today (from home, I can't travel with 48 hours of a seizure).

Phew! here you all are! I agree with peridito, the SCOLDS thing got old on previous threads.

Best wishes to Mhor

Hope she will grace us with her presence here when she feels able.

The only engagement between Rocking and Mustress I can find on the last thread is this one

@TheMustressMhor

I don't much like prose which is sprinkled with exclamation marks.

Oh, no! Don't we use exclamation marks?!!blush

What day do we wear pink?!wink

thank you imaginarycat I've reported myself!

Agree with peridito let's stop the infighting please.

@peridito the term SCOLDS arose because the same few people kept spamming the thread with nasty comments rather than engaging in civilised debate. If they stop doing this the issue will resolve itself.

Personally I think those posters should be banned for trolling but I choose instead not to read their posts and move on without comment.

Morning all, I have lurked my way through the last three threads (()) I hope mustress is ok. Have a couple of pics of my cats as my first contribution...

@myimaginarycat

Why would you suggest that? Why are you targeting me?

The other won't attach.

Anyone can read my posts, I've offered my opinions and engaged.

If someone disagrees with you, making up nicknames and telling people not to speak to them is a crap way of dealing with it. On and off the playground.

I reported that post from rockinghorsecandle @peridito. It is unforgivable given where Mustress is today.

I hope others will do the same, I think that poster should be banned and I for one will not engage with them again.

@Myimaginarycathasfleas

the same few people kept spamming the thread with nasty comments

examples please or are you imagining this ? No donkey work involved by the way before you protest that you shouldn't have to put effort into proving the innocent guilty - just enter the names of "the same people" into the advanced search .

Or to make ir even easier enter my name and come up with quotes where I've been nasty ,spamming ,trolling .

Or stop making accustations .

You're thinking of the pink reference .I hadn't twigged that .

Though pink ribbons are specifically for breast cancer aren't they ? Nothing to do with skin cancer ?

I think you need to stop targeting me @imaginary.

I've not bullied or targeted anyone.

There's nothing offensive about the post highlighted. I replied playfully to a post that was a dig about me! Your post is OTT and your tactics are nasty.

Right, now I'm disgusted. I wouldn't use cancer as a way of attacking anyone.

FFS, it's a Mean Girls reference.
