Can you sort that Mumsnet lot out please.

They've deleted a thread we were working out perfectly well ourselves.

Hey Jess I am a moderator on another forum and wonder why you would describe a moderator as 'anonymous'.
I too am both real and charming grin

I have had several e-mails from G. Most of them perfectly alright. Even nice. Plus one very "claws out" (to put it politely) one when she thought I was getting at josi. grin

Very protective. grin

(This was a long way back)

But, God, it was unforgettable! grin

Geraldine was a contributor to some of the well known newspapers.

j07 how do you do a heart - do tell. Can I do it on the iPad?

j07 Tue 22-Jan-13 11:29:17

press alt (under zx) and at the same time press 3 from the numbers block on the right hand side of keyboard.

Don't know if you can do it on ipad. You can't do much at all on Kindle Fire, I know that. But that's smaller again.

♥♥♥♥♥♥

It works!
(I'd forgotten that one)

janeainsworth Tue 22-Jan-13 11:39:18

Thanks j07. smile
I think it didn't work because I'm on my phone

Stansgran Tue 22-Jan-13 13:09:30

Geraldine et al I am at last in Geneva and the bus to the UN goes outside my back door. Would you like me to pop in and see if Kofi Annan is there- I'm sure he must be a grandpa by now and if I could get him to join gransnet and give a love thy fellow poster pep talk would that help?

Carigransnet (GNHQ) Tue 22-Jan-13 14:01:07

Stansgran YES!!!! Ask him if he would like to do a webchat grin

And j05 on a mac no numbers top right and if you do alt plus a normal 3 you get ###### sad

JessM Tue 22-Jan-13 14:09:09

jane I believe there are some forums (fora?) in which moderation is anon. But I could have got this wrong. Not getting at you obviously.

Gally Tue 22-Jan-13 14:38:55

Can't get hearts on my laptop or the iPad. Will have to rev up the old 'pooter if I need them!

Movedalot Tue 22-Jan-13 15:06:04

jess I keep wondering if it should be fora as well, it just sounds right to me like referenda.

Riverwalk Tue 22-Jan-13 15:36:30

Nah Move I'm sticking with 'ums' !

Fora in particular, looks pretentious smile

Movedalot Tue 22-Jan-13 15:42:32

Well River we are not in pedants so probably won't get a difinitive answer from an expert! grin And as the say - pretentious, Moi?
