Not in the spirit of Gransnet

Oh fgs if this continues I might go back to MN. It's all sweetness and light there.

I haven’t been following the deleted threads, and I’m not clear what the purpose of this one is, but it’s surely not the political threads being referred to, there are strong voices on there but from lots of different perspectives - and those are the threads to avoid for the faint hearted who aren’t up for people disagreeing with them because politics is bound to be contentious.
Or is the OP referring to people being ‘bossy’ and trying to control the chat type threads - I always think that the estrangement and royal threads bring out the worst in people, they are the ones I cringe at unkindness on- but it’s all personal opinion?

Why would anyone wonder if they were part of a coven? I’m definitely not but, then again, I wasn’t aware there used to be one that left!!

certain posters
bossy posters
groups of posters
posting posters

My thoughts exactly . These whiny stirring the pot type posts do not end well, make people feel uncomfortable wondering if they are "provocative" or members of "a coven".

I agree, GillT57

Could it…..possibly….be loonie lefties versus Boris babes ?!

Well some posters obviously feel that there is a problem so why not be sympathic to them instead of the usual sarcastic posts. Perhaps the ones posting that there isn't a problem/cliques/bullying are actual problem.

The lady(ies) doth protest too much…..

"Pisters" is so funny! Best laugh all day. thanks.

I know. I was going to post again to correct it but decided against

Sorry should we just tolerate people calling people names. Is that that the rule now.

Not again!
Isn't this pretty much a rerun of yesterday's deleted thread with the added bonus of a few posters tittering about a typo in the OP?

Was there a coven I wasnt invited to. I take offense at that.

Wwm indeed! What coven ?
Ive thought things rather dull recently is that why all this nonsense?

More playground nonsense.

I have no idea who ‘the coven’ are / were?

Ok, perhaps I should not have said bitching, but we can’t talk about each other and keep referring to ‘certain posters’. It just creates tension and upset.
I thought that it was obvious !

Guess we are all from different backgrounds and what some would say is bitchy others might find amusing. Some are easily offended, some are not. After the Coven left, a year or so back, it seems to me there is not a great deal of bitching and nastiness here. Or at least, being in a different time zone, it has gone by the time I look. Probably a good thing I suppose.

It’s not really that ‘thread about a thread’ thing. That’s an excuse.
How can talking about a thread be ‘against the spirit’?

It’s more the fact that it’s bitching about each other

That’s why they get deleted.

I don’t know why HQ just don’t come out with it.
‘No bitching allowed’ ?

Piston broke- poster with no money?

I blame the Russians.

Or sunspots.

Or Covid.

pisseur de copie ?
