The majority of posters do so, however, some may view your responses to Molly41 & MatyMoo as "not being nice" as they are both valued support to a fellow poster who has shared their life & concerns with an on-line community.
As Molly suggested to Padstow, perhaps any posters who come across Mooloo's new thread for the first time should read some (if not all) of the previous threads, then they would understand the context of it's placement within the Families & Relationships board.0 -
Can I also just add that my comments were twofold, one it is lovely for Molly to be sticking up for Mooloo but she has also had her own challenges recently and it was lovely to see her posting with a bit of fight about her - I am hoping that this means a return to good health for her.
Sorry I didn't make this clear in my original posts and sorry that I feel the need to explain myself.
Now, can we stop hijacking Mooloo's thread? :rotfl::j Proud Member of Mike's Mob :j0 -
I do subscribe to the ethos of being nice to all money savers but I get frustrated by people who don't read a whole thread and just jump in with an odd comment.
I also think there are many posters on this thread who are very protective of Mooloo and think that all she deals with on an every day basis is amazing.
Sorry if you thought I was being harsh.
I can understand that, but being protective and being nasty are two different things aren't they? There are a lot of posts from Mooloo and to a newbie it may seem a daunting task to read the whole lot. Now that Ball and Chain has explained to Padstow why these posts are in this section he/she may decide it is worthwhile to read from the beginning.0 -

How is saying that being harsh to a new poster hijacking Mooloo's thread?
It is nice for friends to stand up for one another, but there is no need to be harsh when replying to a question, other posters seem to manage that very well.
The fact that you seem to find it amusing says a lot about you.0 -

Your response leaves me wondering whether this thread has become virtally impossible for anyone to post any response unless it is of the fawning kind, which seems quite unhealthy to me.
The very fact that you regard that I found the post to Padstow by Molly harsh, and said so, as "not being nice" makes this thread look very clique-ish to me.0 -
I am sire Mooloo won't want all this bickering here so why not just drop the subect. There has been an explination given as to why this thread is here and no more needed to be said about it.
IU have read all 3 threads it took me about a week to catch up with mooloo's life and if anyone really wanted to know what it was all about then they would do the same even if it was just to skim read the threads. I didn't but then I guess I am too nosey for my own good
Mooloo you have had me on a rollercoaster reading the threads and towards the end when twin2 had her chilren put into fostering and you were torn so very badley over the possiblility of them been adopted had me reading with tears running down my face. I really hope with all my heart that the outcome regarding DGS's is one you are all happy with. Twin2's current bf really seems to have his head screwed on compared to the other pratts and maybe with his support she can be a good mum to the two boys.
I hope you have taken a hard copy of all your posts in these threads because if put together I think they would make a great book. I know they had me gripped from start to finish. Reading was like a good book you just can not put down because you need to know what happens next. More importantly it had me rooting for you all the way through and I am sure no matter what rubbish may crop up in this thread (it is public therefore anyone can post what they like within reason) for every one negative comment you will have 3 or 4 lurkers like me rooting for you in the background so don't give up writing; at least not until we see you have all loose ends tied up into a very pretty bow and sit back each night smiliing like a cheshire cat0 -
i think that if you read through the previous threads you will find that plenty of people do comment and give their opinions/ advice and that it is all different and challenges Mooloo. Well I know it does because we often discuss options and what people have posted about in real life. We certainly dont "fawn" but offer constructive advice and support.I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -

Perhaps we should leave this now, but

would be nice if it was applied to all posters, wouldn't it?0 -
FYI, Mooloo's thread is not "cliqueish", but it is more easily understood WHY it is where it is (which is at the Board Guides' discretion) when posters have some background to Mooloo's life over the past few years. Posters are very protective of her as she - just have many other forum members - has not been dealt the best hand of cards, but has made the best of what she can with advice & support from the online community.0
