Summary of bloodbath/bannings of last night

[administrator]

asking "them" for help has turned into your worst nightmare.....

I thought it was a gamble appointing "friendly" people who kind of knew each other, should have listened to AtW Need to get intor work now, will sort this when I get there.

Do try and stay rational admin.

WTF. The first time I don't check the board of an evening and watch the football. FFS! Mod can infract another mod and that has banned cojak by the looks. I need a coffee and some time to read all this bollocks. I thought the board was settling down as well

'There can be only one' - still, who wants to live forever.

Oh my goodness !

Can we edit that post or else we will never hear the end of ATW claiming that he was right.

This is likely to get changed as more facts emerge but as one of the few that wasn't banned last night here's a summary from what I believe occurred:

RH moved Word Association and CUKHoliday:MumsNet threads to Light Relief as part of a clean up he believed should happen for the greater good.


Cojak publicly voices her opinion against this as he wasn't responding to private PMs

RH gives Cojak an Infraction

RH states he believes the threads were full of "flaming and dirge" as a reason for them being moved

MF, Churchill, I and others also say this was a bit out of order, especially as Admin (partly) suggested the holiday or atleast did not seem to disapprove or deem the thread needed moving

Cojak tells RH to back down and goto bed

RH gives Cojak another Infraction for "not keeping the discussion to PMs"

Cojak must have sent a PM to RH for the infractions, RH bans Cojak

MF gets slightly angry with RH and his principles

RH bans MF

RH justifies his actions with "behind the scene" events

At some point later: RH bans Churchill, most likely for this post

that's a brief summary

To fill in a little more detail around the MarillionFan/Churchill bannings.

MF and others, possibly including admin, sponsored one of the Mumsnet mob for a 100k charity walk, total was £150 or so.

This was mentioned but the context was garbled and Churchill took it to mean that MF was sponsoring CUK on a commercial basis. He then assumed publicly that this was why MF wasn't getting banned for some of the posts he made and accused MF of screwing over the forum. MF lost the plot threatened physical violence against RH, at which point CHurchill threatened the same to MF. PM's were apparently sent, MF was banned. More PM's and Churchill posted calling out RH for not banning MF earlier. Churchill Banned.

I think thats about it.

All in all a very unedifying episode and definately not one that shows CUK in a good light.

More childish reaction from certain parts of the old guard. Bedwetters.

But we showed the Mums that we too can have a cat fight when we want one.
