Two threads late last night????

Two threads just popped up??????

We are not allowed to say they are “T**lls” but it’s not rocket science to work out surely????

I think i am entitled to some basic IT that stops me fish et al joining in????

If spammers and hackers can get access to even the most highly protected commercial IT systems, that have the most secure fire walls available; just how do you suggest that MN or GN filters out bored school kids who want to say rude words to a bunch of grannies Lily65? confused

But you don't buy it.

Gonegirl Fri 05-Apr-19 22:06:39

I doubt if HQrs enjoyed tracking that lot down. Must have been a nightmare. Have a heart.

Because I don't own a multi million pound company and I am not tech savvy , I don't know.

But please if you think a couple of young girls with pony tails and babies are running the show, you are deluded.

Why would anyone think that?

It's been a VERY long time since someone called me a young girl. Several decades I think

Chewbacca Sat 06-Apr-19 09:07:15

NOOO! Don't spoil the mental image we have of you CariGrasnet.

Surely GN Towers is staffed entirely by young women who sit and chew gum and blow bubbles, file their nails and pore over their iphones all day? You don't actually have to work do you? shock

CariGransnet (GNHQ) Sat 06-Apr-19 09:34:36

Lord no. Gum and nail files essential - usually an X-box* or two as well grin

And maybe I look like a young girl if viewed from a distance?! (approx one mile)

*have never actually encountered an X box

I think there are men at HQ too Chewbacca so you haven't covered all bases grin. There's no such thing as a "free" social media site. They all have to generate income or wouldn't function. I think trolls are inevitable and all can't possibly be weeded out. I think they are best ignored, if or treated with humour where possible.

Of course, there is always this, together with date of publication, to dispel any wrong thinking. www.amazon.co.uk/Secret-Diary-New-Mum-aged/dp/0091935652/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&keywords=cari+rosen&tag=gransnetforum-21&qid=1554540169&sr=1-1

Gonegirl Sat 06-Apr-19 09:47:58

You do the maths.

CariGransnet (GNHQ) Sat 06-Apr-19 10:12:45

hmm

CariGransnet (GNHQ) Sat 06-Apr-19 10:13:13

Though publication date versus date written....
