Has anyone on GN got the right to give private information about you?

Really creepy Lathyrus. Is it possible?

Oh, Jo I know full well that it happens; I’ve seen it more than often enough. And been on the wrong end of it
I just meant that I’m not at all convinced that this thread pertains to bullying.

The worst poo is fox poo.
I used to be the person who cleared it up from the playground when the caretaker wasn’t there, as everyone else made such a fuss about doing it (gagging and so forth)

Well, I still don’t know what on earth this thread is about, but “warned off”sounds pretty sinister, actually.

Like there are people posing as posters who have powers we don’t know about.

On another thread entirely, somebody I disagreed with told me they had ways of finding out where I lived. That was scary.

I respectfully disagree. Bullying happens on here periodically. Making it public lets bullies know it's not acceptable. Like a school assembly.

Let's go back to talking about animal poo. It's a nicer subject 😁!

I wasn’t aware of any ‘bullying’ on the thread that we are presuming to which the op is referring
(Good Lord, what a mess of a sentence)

This seems like a storm in a teacup crossed with one of those vague troublemaking threads

Can you elaborate on "warned off", Gagajo ?
Was it intended to be a threat?

It may have "warned off a bully", if there was bullying, we only have one side of the story, so I will reserve judgement. However, it has caused posters to speculate, who the bully could be. Not nice, reminds me of the school playground.
The OP should have contacted GNHQ at the outset.

Wise words, Fanny!

I have a few close friends on GN, I've been burned and hurt before and am very careful now. It's so easy to be taken in and then throw caution to the wind and reveal too much.
As has been said before, PMs are not private.
Administrators can read them if necessary, they own the site.

This thread has only caused unpleasantness and suspicion and achieved nothing positive.

It's warned off whoever was doing it. Standing up to a bully, reminding them their actions have consequences.

There are a few posters on here who have already been temporarily banned. They'd do well to remember that and keep their noses clean if they really rely on the site for friendship and support. They're not innocent victims by any means GG13.

New members haven't seen their shenanigans, but some of what has gone on wasn't good at all. It was horrible and very unkind.

Who are you Gagajo to say this to everyone? Are you a mod?
Sounds like it.
Or a spokesperson for the OP?
This thread is dingo crazy.

I expect a number of posters remember the ‘spat’’. However as Her Majesty might have said, recollections may vary.

Spat? It was a full-on campaign against the decision of GNHQ. It went on and on.

You just have to be selective, I suppose.
I hide the threads that I know will rile me.
Do your best to ignore the ones who get up your nose; and hope that he ones whose nose you get up, ignore you too.

All this goes over my head. I suppose I’m just not that engaged with the site. Not very nice for the ones that rely on it for company.

Like that is it?😄okey doke.

Miss A, my dream job is being a kitten photographer. Sigh, as if!

You’d need the patience of a saint. Cats are really difficult to photograph.

I share that fantasy MissA
But I do already have a cat. She’s an absolute angel, she’s so gentle.
Next door’s cat is madly in love with her and follows her everywhere.

Ooh I love cats.

My daughter loved her dog to a ridiculous extent, but she said her heart still did a little "in love" flip when she saw her cat nipping in.

I dream of finding an abandoned kitten on my doorstep.

I'd have to take it in...

A feral cat gave birth to a solitary ginger kitten in my neighbours garden. He wasn’t keen on cats and his wife is allergic to them but they took it in ( the mother went to rescue). I’ll never understood why she didn’t give birth in my garden because, although I’d resolved not to have another cat I certainly wouldn’t have turned one away and I’d always wanted a ginger cat.

I still love my cat even after stepping on her sick, deposited at the side of my bed, in the pitch black, middle of the night as I groggily made my way to the loo! I have forgiven her this little accident. 😻

DD's cat pooed in my slipper.
I started to put them on to go to the loo in the night.

Cat poo smells abominable.

Wish I had taken the time to put my slippers on! 🙀

Another cat poo story - one of our kittens got trapped in our bedroom when we went out and a few days later I was cleaning under the bad and grabbed hold of what I thought was a piece of dark crumpled paper. Yes, it was dried cat poo. Yuck yuck and double yuck!

When I first started there was a group of very unwelcoming people who made catty comments when I tried to start a new thread ( I was keen and full of ideas then!) and I was about ready to disappear permanently when they all left or possibly were banned. Since then things have been fine as far as I am concerned. Sure there are the odd comments but not so personal and more just people with very strong views which is what makes things interesting as far as I’m concerned. I sincerely hope the OP hasn’t been hurt by something someone has said/divulged but sometimes talking about it actually draws attention to what is upsetting in the first place.

There was a huge row between many members and GNHQ a while ago (can't remember how long, at least a year, if not longer). Many members begged, pleaded and did everything they could to get the banned member reinstated (I don't remember who it was, OR who they had been unkind to).

My point is, some members are on a warning about behaviour from GNHQ. They know it and those of us that read that huge thread about the hoohaa know it.

So yes, those that are on a warning (from GNHQ) do need to be careful.

If I could remember the title or any details to add a link to allow you to read the thread, I would. But my memory is sh*te.

I must miss so much on GN. I never notice spats or conspiracies. I think you would need to spend a lot of time on here to do so. Perhaps I’m just not alert enough
