Hello,

I just reported a thread started by 'Dittony' which had a title attacking another poster and provided a link to a blog post.

It looked like a few others had reported it too as they had posted on it.

However in A/C there is another thread with the same title, which when you click on it takes you to a page saying 'error: thread deleted at OP's request'.

The OP however would appear to be someone who posted on the first thread, but not the same person who started it.

So can anyone please clarify what happened here...assuming the second thread was not posted by the same person as the first, (which has now gone) under a namechange?

(really hope not!)

And of course, with our resources we could never find anyone even if they broadcast their IP address. I know because my own IP says i'm 300 miles away

It's trickier if someone is using a smartphone with the correct apps

I've NEVER been deleted tethers. You can check if you like.

I'm like the Gary Linekar of mumsnet.

Did you call someone a twit SGM?

You disgust me.

DontCallMeFrothyDragon · 15/09/2011 11:21

I've been deleted 5 times, and only just found out about it... Hmm Not sure I like the methods of sneaky deletions. We should be told why our posts are deleted, if only for future reference... Grin

'No I assure you it's impossible, I'm a geek.'

That's settled then ladies, relax. A man is here with his computer know-how.

Heh! I got deleted for saying some really, really awful stuff. I'm not proud of it.

Sad

In my defense I was drunk.

I actually wondered if LRD knew better. Perhaps she can enlighten us?

LRDTheFeministDragon · 15/09/2011 12:14

Bob, it was just a lighthearted crack at your tone. I thought you might even find it funny. Never mind.

Bob, I've noticed you and Edd enjoy lighthearted jokes. I assumed making one at your expense would be taken in the spirit in which it was intended? Why don't you find it funny? I'm really sad now. I made a big effort to talk to you in the way you appreciate and you just have no sense of humour and invite your friend to gang up on me! And swearing at me for no reason!

Why are you so upset and rude?

HereBeBolloX · 15/09/2011 12:23

Pan comes here quite a lot and he's a man.

And AdelaofBlois. He's v. good.

LRDTheFeministDragon · 15/09/2011 12:24

Yes, and Pan would have appreciated my sense of humour. FFS, it was lighthearted! Some people are so sensitive, it's ridiculous. Sad

ShirelyKnotSHIRE · 15/09/2011 12:25

Hallelujah!

What was the name of that band? Charles and Eddie wasn't it?

They were rubbish and one had long hair and swished it about a bit and one of them played the guitar and they sang that "Would I lie to you baby, would I lie to you-hoo-oo" and it was shit?

Was it Charles and Eddie?

tethersend · 15/09/2011 12:29

Milli Vanilli?

LRDTheFeministDragon · 15/09/2011 12:29

Still no answer bob? What was wrong with my joke? I am just trying to understand. You can tell from the fact i tried to post in a way you would like, that I am trying very hard to understand your position and I think I deserve an explanation. I have asked for it politely.

DontCallMeFrothyDragon · 15/09/2011 12:30

That was the first tape I ever bought! Grin

I loved that song... Blush

edd1337 · 15/09/2011 12:31

No LRD. It came accross as though you were discrediting what someone knew. It's rather rude. I suppose if I told you that you were not a real feminist and you were doing it wrong, all hell would break loose

DontCallMeFrothyDragon · 15/09/2011 12:31

It was Charles and Eddie, btw

ShirelyKnotSHIRE · 15/09/2011 12:31

Love you LRD, please don't be too upset. Sad It's baffling!

No tethers, it was definintely NOT Milli Vanilli because Milli Vanilli didn't actually exist. Shock

All a LIE! Shock

They were called Charles and Eddie. I'm sure of it.
