Sounds terribly dangerous.
RIP to all of you who literally fell off the cliff. So sad. So much literal violence.

It will be to do with the temp namechange, won’t it?

Probably a good indication of all the accounts twitter has banned for knowing that women are adult human females. That and they also have a nasty habit of unfollowing you from your followed GC accounts surreptitiously.

JustTurtlesAllTheWayDown · 06/09/2019 13:45

No, I don't think so. It's over a longer period, but I don't think it means much.
Twitter's been having bot purges and someone with that many followers is always going to attract a bunch of them.
By contrast, MM has around 7000 so wouldn't be much affected by that kind of thing.

Quite possibly that too!

Yeah I keep getting unfollowed from people I am following

Janie143 · 06/09/2019 13:52

I don't understand what that Twitter screen shot is about Glinner still has over 626k followers as or 30 seconds ago?

DickKerrLadies · 06/09/2019 13:52

Well, I'm not that close to the sea but... they said "literally" so I'd best find a swimming costume.

TerfTalk · 06/09/2019 13:53

I doubt Glinner cares. If he did, he wouldn't be involved in this.

CharlieParley · 06/09/2019 13:56

So followers temporarily climbed from 660k to 700k over the course of a year and then fell to around 625k or so over the next 18 months. The increase will have included bots, so will the decrease. Regardless of follower type, a fluctuation of less than 10% in follower numbers is hardly a cliff edge, is it?

JustTurtlesAllTheWayDown · 06/09/2019 13:57

I don't think the drop means much tbh. I was just amused at the glee and drama in the tweet. Grin

Anyone who would gloat over the fact that someone else's Twitter followers have fallen from 700k to 625k must be mentally unhinged.

Oh dear. Has mimmymum fallen into the 'not being able to read graph axes' trap?
NB. Not literally fallen. And not literally a trap.

NotBadConsidering · 06/09/2019 14:08

There’s something so petulant and childish about Mimmymum. Vexatious legal challenges, endless monitoring of this board and likely reporting, desperate to see people who challenge the dangerous evidence-lacking medical treatment of children hounded off Twitter...I think it speaks deeply of a fear that her personal choices about treatments for her child will finally been seen for what they really are.

MrGHardy · 06/09/2019 14:13

I have been banned after july 18. I was following.

Ha ha - I was just going to point out the flaw in not showing zero on your graph!

ScrimshawTheSecond · 06/09/2019 14:37

Literally, eh.

TowelNumber42 · 06/09/2019 14:43

Mimmymum doesn't have the strongest grasp on reality at the best of times.

Recognising and communicating truth is not her big thing. Propping up one's own fantasy world by any means necessary is more her thing.

On the upside, it made me check if I am following glinner (I very rarely touch Twitter). I'm sure her work here will result in more followers for him.

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 06/09/2019 14:47

Have dear old Mimmymum & co ever considered the maxim of keeping friends close but enemies closer? (Hi Mimmy, I know you're there!)

Every person they push off Twitter or Facebook or Mumsnet... They don't just stop. They move elsewhere where they can't be seen and talk there instead. Only now the TRAs and their handmaidens have no godly clue what is being said and worked on and developed.

Which seems a bit nose/face/spite...

I follow him, but am currently suspended. I don’t know if I should hold on or not! What a dilemma for a Friday afternoon!

😱

Igneococcus · 06/09/2019 15:43

She's not a Horrible Histories fan I take it.

raisinseverywhere · 06/09/2019 15:45

I follow him, but I just checked my twitter and it says that I don’t follow him any more! So I’ve re-followed him.

This also happened a couple of days ago with another prominent GC man that I follow. So is twitter somehow removing followers?

Inebriati · 06/09/2019 15:47

Whew, I'm ok because thats literally not what falling off a cliff looks like.

MrsTerryPratchett · 06/09/2019 15:48

It's more of an escarpment than a cliff.

See that long-dead geography teacher who hated me and hoped I'd fail my exams. In your face. I still know what an escarpment looks like [overinvested}

youllhavehadyourtea · 06/09/2019 15:52

Didn't minimum also have some dodgy stats about traffic to FWR recently?
