Bunbury’s Public Service Announcement 2

The useful Bunbury Guide to Spotting Community Disruptors is constantly evolving.

The best research and advice is not to engage with community disruptors and trolls. As ever, if you suspect troll activity, report it to MNHQ.

This is a continuation of the first Public Service Announcement thread:

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3321127-public-service-announcement

If and when you see threads plopped into FWR, especially a curious repeat of well worn topics, maybe check for poster history before engaging.

There are a number of posts/posters/threads that are reproduced on Twitter or Facebook to foment controversy using screen shots & flagging to either MNHQ to have threads or posters deleted. Sometimes, it’s used to approach commissioning editors with ideas for articles. It’s a tiresome tactic that we’ve had several community disruptor posters who themselves post the comments that they then highlight elsewhere as purported evidence of racism, religious intolerance, anti-men sentiments, or transphobia.

Some helpful links in following posts.

I don’t care either but I think MN can block the IP, if they know the user name. It is rather tiresome.

Thought it was Eresh but wasn't sure if I was remembering right.

Datun · 14/05/2019 08:32

That gammon person is 'having a whale of a time' posting incoherent, unpunctuated comments??

It reminds me of nothing more than the toddlers going off alarming every time I used the phone.

There are ways around that.

Aww They all just get off on how brave and stunning someone is when they invade the scary best of evil te*fs.
It's fine Monitors, join in all you want. We can't block you. We are not afraid of anything you might say, we've heard it before, but whatever.

KatvonHostileExtremist · 14/05/2019 10:21

*nest not best
Although I kind of like them both

LangCleg · 14/05/2019 11:36

Wait, what? What did I say?!

littlbrowndog · 14/05/2019 11:39

Weetabix

littlbrowndog · 14/05/2019 11:39

I have asked mumsnet to delete every reference to weetabix

LangCleg · 14/05/2019 11:45

I remember now. It was a bit naughty/goady.

Mea maxima culpa!

birdsdestiny · 14/05/2019 11:57

It's not just dog, we have all signed a formal letter of complaint with regards to the breakfast cereal, our next step is to contact MN advertisers.

littlbrowndog · 14/05/2019 12:21

Exactly

LangCleg · 14/05/2019 12:31

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

(I hate you all. Literal violence. MY PERCEPTION COUNTS BECAUSE I AM THE VICTIM. THE POLICE SAID SO.)

nauticant · 14/05/2019 13:19

There's a lot of it about isn't there?

I wonder what's caused the increase in the targeting of FWR? My guess would be that there's a number of matters all having a legal dimension appearing in the media at around the same time.

FermatsTheorem · 15/05/2019 17:06

Time for a bump. To add to the Bunbury Field-Spotter's Guide to Community Disrupters: The new poster who says they're an old poster who says we'd listen to them if only we knew who they really were in RL.

(Who also seems to think FWR is the mysterious control centre for all of gender critical feminism and can thus kindly put their seal of approval on/put the brakes on - depending on OP's particular whim on that particular day - every single gender critical website and campaign everywhere... And if we don't it's because we're white feminists/centering men/buying into racist ideology/something about Tommy Robinson/wibble, or something. Anyone got the time to do a bingo card?)

ZebrasAreBras · 15/05/2019 17:08

Oops sorry I just posted on that one.

FermatsTheorem · 15/05/2019 17:11

So did I - I cracked at "I'm not GC but I'm a radfem because I want to abolish gender..."

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 15/05/2019 17:12

It's seems to be a new MO.

'Im a regular and I've namechanged and I'm terribly worried that you women are following someone who is racist / sets up fake Crowdfunders / ...'

It is very odd their steadfast inability to understand the fact that we are not the Borg.

This keeps popping up in my Facebook feed. I never eat breakfast and if I did, this would not be my choice.

TL:DR Breakfast corporation suggests weetbix + peanut butter + boiled egg as actual food.

Germaine, being antipodean, was always a proponent of the drover’s breakfast and I follow her austere example.

LangCleg · 15/05/2019 17:42

It's the Posie thing all over again.

The more oxygen it's given, the more seeds of distrust are sown. Replying to that person is exactly what they want. It is not time to think of the lurkers. It is time to let it drop like a stone.

Whole thing has been addressed by the owlish one on Twitter. People can make up their own minds what they think.

FloralBunting · 15/05/2019 17:46

Lol, indeed. I shall remind myself of my declaration and continue sipping tea.

TinselAngel · 15/05/2019 18:21

Maybe if anybody who is "well known" could confirm it's not them, we could narrow it down Grin
