Deleted thread drama on MMM

[pantsparty]

The headline is contrary to this part of the article: Experts were quick to note that the risk is very small and very few children were diagnosed in the study.

Fuck you, clickbait headline!

Ah, before the like button.

I wanted to click like on the "LMAO are you serious about winning? What kind of competition is this?" one. Gold.

Yes! Brilliant reply only 2 posters in.

The best part of that post was the parenthetical:

"(Sorry if you are serious.)"

This is where I stand on it. Liking a news article reporting science is not offensive, in my opinion. That's why I asked for clarification of the nature of the article. All indications are that it was a very straightforward report of the research.

THIS WAS THE ARTICLE:

www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/national-international/361854151.html?_osource=SocialFlowFB_CTBrand

The article was fairly critical of the study.

Sounds like NQB was trying to make it seem like something it is not.

I'm still in awe that pugz said they'll resume it in the morning, sleepy time, and then the thread just stopped. We've already passed them in page length. It's a whole different world over there.

[tacocat]

I keep trying to find something in that article worth shaming and I really can't. It acknowledged the small size of the study and the negative affects like women stopping anti-depressants unnecessarily.

Man, I'd forgotten about the Hitler elves. LMAO!

I still can't believe Coke dick was a mm poster.

If I would have had to bet on which board a post about snorting coke off of a dick would come from - hands down S&B.

Lol. You guys, flex deletes stuff like this all the time. Like, at least quarterly.

Let's get back to Hitler cookies. That was a good set of threads. Miso, can you post wannabe's version?

hey wait a minute.  Before you jump to contusions, specks, let me explain what happened.  There was a reported thread so I went to the "reported" request.  A poster asked that it be deleted...the whole thread.  Globals and admins have the option to delete a single post in a thread OR the entire thread.  I clicked on the wrong link  and I accidentally deleted the entire thread.  

I own up to any of my deliberate overstepping of boundaries, BUT this time it was purely an accident.   It was not deliberate nor was I giving in to my lust for power.  

Then why didn't you tell the board what happened? It was a lengthy confessions post. Its not like people wouldn't notice it was gone. LOL

[pantsparty]

No shit, this post from the Confessions thread actually made me laugh.

I mean MMMers are really good about respecting PDQ requests or whatever, but I'm not sure that this situation is one of "respecting boundaries" lol.

This is what I'm trying to assess. To what extent this post is ridiculous and martyr-y.

I was also wondering this. Why wait until someone calls you out?

Yeah, for the most part, people are very respectful of not quoting or rehashing. And then there are people like me & @this who probably belong here lol

But sadly not elf ones.

I just really want this thread to keep going. I have a long, boring day ahead.

[05heel]

Why is everyone assuming she actually read the article? It's just as likely that she read the stupid headline and hit like.

Oh, and PDQ. If you do I'm having this entire board deleted.

[05heel]

Also, is anyone up for a 2016 mod election? I really want this, guys. Please.

I won the internetz back in 2012, go me!  <)  Seriously, I'd forgotten about those elves until now. Good way to start the day!

DON'T PUT METAL IN THE SCIENCE OVEN!

[Deleted]

I liked the article on FB too. It was a scientific article that was actually pretty non shamey ( I think it even said something about how this is a correlation in like less than 1 percent of cases or something).

I love ADs. I however didn't need them while pregnant because pregnancy makes me flipping high as kite and really really happy. Post partum crash hits me like WOAH though.

[laladypoet]

I was told I'd probably have to get off my anti-anxiety drugs when/if I get pregnant. I can't see that going well.

Here's the thread, but unfortunately the photo of her perfect cookies is now gone.

I think Proboards clears out photos periodically.

I'm sure wannabe can come in and show us her finished product.

well, since you asked...

Oh man, yours were awesome. Tomorrow is actually cookie swap day and I have no idea what I'm doing. Probably just sprinkles this year. (wilted)
