Just watching the insta video on the BBC page. As I said I don’t follow her. That video is completely hysterical and I doubt any lawyer would advise her to read that out especially if they are pursuing legal action
Wait, what? So she is suggesting that we know Becky's address and IP details and would ask our media friends to send round their paedophile husbands? Come on, Sali. You're getting your stories mixed up. That's not us. That's you.Why would Becky be worried about being found out by people here? She makes it sound like it's a scary bullying place.
Yes if she wrote that on here it'd be trolling by her definition.So... is this trolling? Or is criticism of something in the public domain allowed if it’s done by Sali?
I’ve no doubt some people on tattle do cross the line and there are some threads on here I don’t visit as I think some posters do go too far. But in my experience if I have seen posts that cross the line and I’ve reported them they’ve always been deleted by the mods.
She is right though. Emily in Paris is awful. I hope Lily Collins is now working on her own trolling video. "The troll victim and me, how the abused turned abuser"So... is this trolling? Or is criticism of something in the public domain allowed if it’s done by Sali?

Oops sorry @Eurgh posted at the same time.Maybe Lily Collins needs to do a tearful video.....
Right, for example talking about it on a public forum like twitter. To a wide audience. What kind of a person would do that???I couldn’t watch it either. I’ve got a WhatsApp group about it. Wouldn’t dream of being so unkind in public.....
Before the Internet, you wrote to the editor of a newspaper, or to Points of view on the BBC. Now, the horror, people do not need the BBC or a newspaper to filter/ignore their opinion. It's relatively new, and can certainly be uncomfortable. Everyone online gets told stuff they don't want to hear, didn't Yorkshire tea get abuse for? I don't see marks and Spencer crying about the opinions expressed on their clothing range. Sali, like Mrs Hinch makes money from her online presence, no one has a gun at their head, it's their job. They can choose to accept people having opinions as part of online life, ignore it, get someone else to run their social media. Anything but call for the end of free speech. Oh, a little less hypocrisy would help too.I'm not a huge Sali follower but have just read the BBC article and found it really interesting to see this site characterised as 'trolling'. I'm not familiar with the specifics of Sali's situation but I do struggle to know where the line is re participation in Tattle. I'm a lurker on a few threads and I feel that a majority of Tattle participants blindly defend it as vital criticism and holding influencers to account, and all the influencers just mark it as trolling. When actually I think the truth is somewhere in the middle.
Tattle is filled with valid criticism about people who have chosen to monetise their lives and there is some hugely interesting commentary on the phenomenon of influencers. Equally, on every single thread I follow, there is some content that for me crosses a line and makes me feel uncomfortable - some of it is obvious, like attacks on someone's appearance, but some of it is more subtle - I certainly recognised the part of Sali's article where she said it was impossible to win and that once someone has been discussed on this site every little aspect of their lives is up for criticism. I think it's a really interesting topic, and quite fundamental to the 'purpose' of the site - is there a thread anywhere that discusses this in more detail?
It's a tricky one as everyone has different lines and for many any comments about someones appearance crosses it. But when you make your living by broadcasting your image it's pretty hard to say any talk of appearance is off-limits especially when lots of the conversation is more about being deceitful with their image.on every single thread I follow, there is some content that for me crosses a line and makes me feel uncomfortable - some of it is obvious, like attacks on someone's appearance
