Where has Dittany Gone?

and will she be back?

I'm a lurker on these boards but I enjoyed reading Dittany's posts and wondered where she's gone.

Yes, I think ignoring is the best policy. The site will collect waifs and strays including random misogynists, disgruntled MN'ers who weren't allowed to dominate discussions or convince people how wrong their views were got their feelings hurt and general shit stirrers, methinks.

The safety aspect is important though - so keeping the odd eye on what's being said may be worth it.

CuriousMama, we've tried reporting it. No such luck yet. :(

AnyFucker · 16/08/2011 12:05

Why don't you just come back now, CNB ? G'wan...

DontCallMeFrothyDragon · 16/08/2011 12:07

Dittany, can I blame you for tempting me to take a look over here in the first place? Grin I'm supposed to be doing an essay on postmodernism, and it's become VERY feminist dominated... Wink

sparky688 · 16/08/2011 12:09

i can see what youre saying Krikri and youre right but.....
why should we have to watch what we say-this is oppression of women yet again-something we re fighting against.
im not arguing with you[and im not]and i dont know what we re going to do about this but this is wrong isnt it.

DontCallMeFrothyDragon · 16/08/2011 12:09

(And yes... I'm with AnyFucker on this... COME BACK NAOWWWW!)

Grin

I love your new name, CaptainNancyBlackett. I know we disagreed a lot, but I hope you won't be driven away by disagreements. They are one reason why mumsnet is not mimsy. :)

CaptainNancyBlackett · 16/08/2011 12:24

I can't come back. I need more holiday!

giyadas · 16/08/2011 12:30

Another one here who you won't know but really misses your posts. They always cut through all the crap.
Would like to go back to nodding at the screen instead of raging at the obvious trolls (cos it's all about me, of course)

HandDivedScallopsrgreat · 16/08/2011 12:30

Hi dittany - another one who has missed you here .

AliceTwirled · 16/08/2011 12:35

Sure it is Dittany. Just post again and you'll see how it all works Wink

Beachcomber · 16/08/2011 12:37

Hi dittany, glad to see you.

tethersend · 16/08/2011 12:37

The Mumsnet Sucks FB page is the best advert for Feminism I've ever seen.

ItsNotUnusual · 16/08/2011 12:38

what giyadas said.... with the occasional thoughful incline of the head while I ponder some uncomfortable newly discovered truth......

AyeRobot · 16/08/2011 12:39

Dittany, you might as well come back given that most of those that were giving you a particularly hard time on all the "feminists (by which we mean dittany) are mean and we can't post whilst she's around" threads have been conspicuous by their absence since you've been gone. Funny that.

I am brewing a male violence thread and I did wonder if that would tempt you back. Grin

saf, I did wonder if your name was also a target Shock

Ormirian · 16/08/2011 12:46

Hello dittany!

CaptainNancy · 16/08/2011 12:48

What SaF said.
Can you see why I might be slightly miffed today dittany?

queenofthemojavewasteland · 16/08/2011 12:59

Missed you here Dittany

Just looked at that Mumsnet Sucks page myself, has he really got nothing better to do than pick on one website?

UmYeahLikeTotally · 16/08/2011 13:02

Dittany agreed with one of my posts once. I was very proud!! BlushGrin

Hope to see you back full time soon

AnyFucker · 16/08/2011 13:02

How a bout a timeshare/jobshare arrangement ?

DontCallMeFrothyDragon · 16/08/2011 13:16

AnyFucker, SAF's name has been plastered over DanAvenell's twitter account, as well as the mumsnet sucks site. :(

AnyFucker · 16/08/2011 13:18

Am not surprised, froths

I bet HB gets it too Sad

Clever, uncompromising, honest women. Some men just can't stand 'em.

Meglet · 16/08/2011 13:36

Marking my place. I wondered what had gone on.
