...if I suddenly go quiet, I will have been banned. grin

Ten and a half years on Mumsnet followed by Gransnet, and at the age of 71 banning looms! shock grin

Ana Wed 19-Jun-13 17:52:44

What have you got against looms, jingl? grin

grin

gracesmum Wed 19-Jun-13 18:06:35

Could this be what is known as a blanket ban grin?

merlotgran Wed 19-Jun-13 18:07:23

What have you done, jingle? shock

petallus Wed 19-Jun-13 18:10:37

Surely you are not being serious! shock

Stansgran Wed 19-Jun-13 18:12:07

You mean people over fifty go on Mumsnet?

j08 Wed 19-Jun-13 18:19:01

Ana! This is a serious thread! grin

What else could "have to take further action" mean? I hope it's only banning.

Spaning...? confused

Ana Wed 19-Jun-13 18:20:36

Spanking!!! grin confused

I'm buzzing round the threads trying to find what's occuring.

Maybe they'll blow up your computer.

j08 Wed 19-Jun-13 18:21:30

What's that? Is it horrible? Will it hurt?

j08 Wed 19-Jun-13 18:23:17

Oh! Spanking!

Surely not Geraldine?! wink

petallus Wed 19-Jun-13 18:24:32

Is it to do with the whelping thread?

Elegran Wed 19-Jun-13 18:41:34

You haven't upset anyone recently, JO Is this for something new or for an old misdemeanor?

Q. You mean people over fifty go on Mumsnet?
A. Yes, they do. I'm a Mum & I'm over fifty.

J0 I don't know what's behind it but surely banning would be rather extreme especially if there has been no clear explanation of the reason?

j08 Wed 19-Jun-13 18:46:57

Email came this morning. I don't know which thread/threads. Suppose I should have asked.

I will miss the free books from the book club.sad

j08 Wed 19-Jun-13 18:49:01

Ok baubles! I'm getting nervous now! What else could they mean! [shiver]

Ana Wed 19-Jun-13 18:50:17

You'd better not be banned! Gransnet would be no fun at all without you! confused

j08 Wed 19-Jun-13 18:52:30

It would be fine. You would soldier on perfectly well without me. [brave face] grin

petallus Wed 19-Jun-13 18:53:00

This is disconcerting. I sincerely hope you stay with us.

Ana Wed 19-Jun-13 18:59:41

I do hope it wasn't the Godwin's Law thing. Are certain words not acceptable on Gransnet? If that's the case, perhaps it should be made clear...

annodomini Wed 19-Jun-13 19:22:35

You haven't been much different - if at all - from usual, J0. Trying to imagine what further action could be taken. Write out 100 times 'I must be nice to.... (complete as appropriate).

Ella46 Wed 19-Jun-13 19:28:55

Send them a very large cake Jings and they'll forgive you for everything!

Ariadne Wed 19-Jun-13 19:35:42

Can't quite believe this, jingl! I haven't been very active lately, (keeping out of things) but haven't noticed anything..! I would miss you, old girl. Honestly.
