    I was never-in-doubt but they allowed an imposter to join called Never-in-Doubt and he was pming people called them spastics and darkies etc - it took MSE 4 days to ban him, 4 bloody days mate. My reputation went to bits, and MSE said it was fine as they'd removed the offensive poster - yea right, thanks for the support MSE!

    I along with 100 others walked out of MSE that day, never to return......
    I remember the day well, I had only just got to know Niddy properly and didn't really know what was going on.

    I started a thread in support on El Nid. I said it was like writing an obituary for a friend. In 24 hours I think it reached around 7 0r 800 views? and around 90 replies. At first the Trolls came out but some of the long term fence sitters for a change stood up to them.

    In the end there was so much argument and derision I was going to ask for the thread to be locked, I didn't know it would cause such a storm. I need not have worried because MSE shut it down without warning, I never got an explanation or apology Surprise Surprise.

    Still as it turned out it was all for the best. We are here now.

    As it happens I think I came across the Troll Niddy mentions. A particularly Nasty piece of Human excrement.

    Sometimes it just makes you wish you could go round to someones door and say hello in person

      That would probably have been done by MSE Andrea.

          I too remember Niddygate well.

          Not sure if you know, but you're still a byword on MSE for being evil and helping people shirk their responsibilities and get out of paying what they have a moral obligation to pay, blah blah blah.

          As for MSE Andrea, she started a thread asking a respected member to contact her, a few hours before said poster was PPR'd (the poster didn't have chance to see and respond to the thread).

          Then MSE were annoyed when someone started a thread saying it's not on. You can't attack individuals over there apparantly.

                      Blimey this story is getting a bit dark. Can't wait to read Niddy's autobiography. Posters posing as other posters like proper spooks

                      I just want to wish Team Niddy a briliant vacation and remind you to put plenty of SPF 40 sunscreen on that well deserved halo of yours

                            What has annoyed my about MSE is when you put in the words all-about-debt in a post that this is changed to XXXXXXXXXXX

                            Completely childish and un-neccessary.

                            You are right with the change in attitude towards debtors.

                            I started getting trolled by PM after a post I made there on dealing with payday loan companies. In the end I turned off receiving PM's.

                            That post has now had over 15,000 hits so I know its hurting the PDL industry, and there was a spate of 1 post members trying to discredit the advice that I wrote. Wonder who they worked for?!

                            The DCA industry has woken up to the power of consumer forums and they know the best way to deal with them is to infiltrate and then offer poor advice, or alternatively, as at CAG have 'official representation'. This was also tried at MSE a few months ago but was so vehemently opposed that a couple of posts was all that was managed!

                            However, slander, libel etc are all unnecessary when all people have to do is post the truth! These companies are up their eyeballs in dodgy behaviour. They cannot sue for slander/libel/defamation of character etc when they know that someone will produce evidence of their wrongdoing!
