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

A thread where everyone knows what is going on except the people who don't. Although there are those who think they know what is going on and others who think they know what is going on and others who think they are wrong.

Poor op. Whoever she is.

I don't care who done it

The question is, is it the right thing to do?

I have friends on gransnet and yeah, we are going to chat about things

But using information, we know about a poster to harass them in some way or make them feel uncomfortable joining discussion is wrong right?

Or is it not?

Why?

But that hasn’t happened

Same here aggie and happy to remain in ignorance.

I’m obviously as thick as champ ! No idea who or what this is about !

I am completely lost with all this as well BlueBelle & Grannybags I guess we will never be on the recruitment list for Bletchley Park

Well, if the poster is the person it is being implied they are, I remember the previous pile-ons. And I remember the names involved. Some of whom have had temporary bans for poor behaviour on here in the past.

I have to say though, I'm still not convinced the the poster is who everyone seems to think they are.

To clarify, Rarely, not none.
I tend to stick to the non contentious boring threads, but this one struck a cord, for reasons I do not want to go into.

I think that was exactly Mary’s point Jo

Some of us are critical of the post itself as opposed to the poster per se

Sweeping statement Gaga. I have had little interaction with the OP presently, nor in past identities.
I just dislike posts like this and ones which cause speculation, with posters trying to figure out who the culprit is.

If no interaction, then the statement probably doesn't apply to you MD.

Surely the OP should ask for this thread to be taken down, and for GNHQ to look into any wrongdoings the OP thinks have been committed by another person. The specuLation is pointless and damaging. If you know, you know - and the two posters should sort it out themselves.

I have no idea which poster is being referred to by Fleurpepper
I personally feel the OP is the one who should be ashamed at starting a thread which she surely knew would inevitably cause Ill feeling and trouble. Of course it is the OP’s business but why start a thread to get everyone guessing ;
A. What is the OP’s secret
B. Who done it?

I never do as I am told either GagaJo.

I’m clueless!

Best way to be, I think, Babs758

I'm clueless, too.

I do predict, though, that if this thread carries on the way it is it will be gone by tomorrow..

Nappies, check this out Sherlock.

Chinese whispers, emperor's new clothes, Trojan horse comes to my mind I’ve not a clue what’s this is about, feels a bit like a dose of Labyrinthitis. Clean clear language would be appreciated.

Wow, It's a weird thread to be sure.
I wasn't aware of the old GN member, before my joining time, but I certainly know more about them now than I did before which can't have been the intention.
But I still have NO idea what the secret really is, nor who is implicated. So I'm somewhere in the middle, but Iike a bit of mystery.

This feels like a nasty pile-on. Offputting, particularly alongside a number of other posts in the past week (and doubtless much longer).

Presumably, however, the site owners feel that their advertisers are happy with the number of users, and don’t check the content or tone of the forums.

Exactly. Par for the course with a select number of members unfortunately.

BlueBelle

I m totally and utterly thick, thick, thick havent a clue who fleur is, haven’t a clue what’s she’s been outed about, in fact I haven’t a clue about anything and I come on every day for the last 11/12 years 😲🤣

Me too! 🤣

Same here Urms 👋

All because you disliked the prior GN member

That’s one big all encompassing leap GagoJo.
You don’t speak for me.

I didn’t then & don’t now. 👋

It’s funny tho,
Secrets, betrayals, nappies on washing lines, conspiracy theories.😂
Why was it started? Where’s OP gone? Who are we all?
I would say to OP don’t tell private stuff on forums cos it always comes back to bite you on the bum.I think it was Confucius who once said that and he was never wrong.

How true Marydoll as we have witnessed at least 4 times in my memory.

I don't understand why this thread was started in the first place.
The OP should have reported the person in the first place and let GNHQ deal with it.
Threads like this only cause speculation and suspicion and usually end in tears.

No pile on just members defending whoever it might be who has been accused of divulging private information that might or might not have been given in a PM.
