Deleted PMs - This is important

A PM from you to me and some others dated December has apparently been withdrawn at your request. Did you ask for it to be withdrawn?

Thinking about it, didn’t HQ say ( some time ago) that they would delete pms more than several weeks old ( or did I dream it?)

I've got much older ones than the one Mawbroon allegedly withdrew.

No Jane10 I didn’t and I am seriously unhappy at what I see as a breach of privacy

Quite! Off to check pms now.

I'll check mine too.....

I’ve had a message deleted too, sent last August.
Not from Maw though, from another poster who come to think of it, I haven’t ‘seen’ for a while.

How odd! Three of mine - Inbox and Sent - have also been deleted at the other GN's request. (11th January 2019) I haven't gone through all my pms, which go way back!

That is sinister Maw! Big brother indeed. However, it was copied to quite a few of us. Could one of the others have asked for its removal?

I had some (all from the same person) which I assumed were one and the same message, because when I replied, the message duplicated 3 times.
I thought the deleted ones were perhaps unwanted duplicates.
This was just about 3 days ago.

Some of my messages have been deleted too - all from the same poster. Apparently they were removed at the users request

4 of my pm messages have been deleted, all saying " this message has been removed at user request".

1 message on 31.12 18 from Jalima
1 message on 30.12 18 from lemongrove
4 messages on 26.12.18 from lemongrove
2 messages on 20.12.18 from MawBroon
1 message on 09.12.2018 from MawBroon

I've never contacted GNHQ to ask for any messages to be deleted. Why would I? What's going on GNHQ?

Mine were all on 29/11/18 by oldbatty.

Sent messages also deleted. Same people involved too.

I have had one deleted in January from one of the posters mentioned above.
I thought at the time, the poster regretted messaging me. Very sinister indeed.

The plot thickens..

I have checked my list of pm's and there are certain posters pm's who have a message saying :-

' This message has been removed at users request.'

I am very annoyed as I know one pm was merely wishing me a Happy Xmas.

It is certain this applies to GN Users not a time line that have been subject to deletion.

I send or receive very few Pm's but I am interested to know if any of mine are known to have been removed presumably by GNHQ.

I know today 2 old pm's that had 'This message has been removed at users request.' ' against them have disappeared completely as though to leave no trace of this happening.

Those pm' s could have held information I wished to keep but they have disappeared and I find this beyond alarming.

The pms weren't anything subversive or contentious but, judging by the dates, they seem to have been wishing those people a merry Christmas or happy New Year and one was about a car; hardly breaking any rules!

Found another four from a different poster removed at beginning of January, totally unoccupied chat.??
What is going on?

Meant to be INOCCUOUS

Mine were from somebody not on anyone else's list, and about my recent 'incident'.
I thought it strange that she had contacted gransnet and asked for (what I thought were) duplicate messages to be deleted.

Found four messages I sent on 4th January have been removed at my request.

I certainly DID NOT ask for their removal!!!

I don’t think it’s anything sinister folks.
I think it may well be, that when you clear old messages from your inbox, recipients get the message ‘deleted at users request’ or similar.All they are doing is clearing away old messages, and not snubbing a poster.

I wonder if this is anything to do with the security issue on mumsnet?
Apparently users there found that some of them could access others' accounts.
