There are lots of trolls

We have to get rid of them and make sure that they are not affecting the ones who are here for the right reasons

Together we can beat them ~ this place is too good not to.

it's just something that really riles me, especially on this board. We have all read posts on here from people at breaking point due to their debt who come here looking for advice and support and some tosspot comes along hurls some abuse at them leaving people feeling worse than they already did wondering what the point in coming here was if thats the reaction they're going to get. in my opinion its the same as playgroud bullying

is it just me or does there seem to be an awful lot of trolls lately
i've 'seen' a fair few people say they are not going to post anymore due to attacks and pm's from trolls.
What kind of sad existence must someone lead if they get their kicks by going on an internet forum to attack/upset people

Hi everybody.


Over the last few weeks we have had a number of "troll" attacks on the boards.

What is a Troll? A troll is a person that posts deliberately provocative, nasty or hurtful comments on threads. They may be a person with no previous connection to the board or someone that has created a pseudonym to get their point made.

If you should get a comment made on any thread you post asking for help and advice please realise this comment is not directed at you personally.
We really are all a lovely bunch here (oops, modest, sorry) so please ignore these nasty comments and continue to post here as normal.

what should i do if i get a comment made on my thread?

firstly do not respond to the comment as this invariably is what the person wants. At the bottom of the post, on the left hand side is a red "warning" triangle. Click this and then "send" the message that comes up. This will report the message to abuse who will review it's content and delete it.

The person we had this morning was particularly vile and nasty and please believe me is an extreme rarity here.
Above all PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THE BOARDS. THIS SITE IS AN ASSET TO SO MANY, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT FEELS THE WORLD IS FALLING IN ON YOU. THERE IS SUCH A WEALTH OF ADVICE HERE TO BE HAD THAT THE COMMENTS OF ONE MUST NOT DETER YOU FROM AVAILING YOURSELF OF THE KNOWLEDGE HERE!!!!

It is testament to the work that martin has done and continues to do that so many people give their time knowledge and experience freely to others, without judgement, to lift people out of the depths of debt crisis

PLEASE DO NOT LET THE ACTIONS OF THE MINORITY RUIN THAT.


Kind wishes
P

The original post from Pania and the thread is still going:T

Hi I_A / Sarah

A break is like a holiday...take a while & then you will feel refreshed again. Never say never ....we are all human & need a bit of a break every now & again.

You are a valuable member of the `team` here on MSE DFW & I hope that instead of `lurking` or an `alias` you will be around as yourself....remember critism is part of life but we must always be proud of `who we are`.

Have a good break Sweetheart & look forward to seeing you again....soon.
