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

I wish I could live the life of a Surrey housewife - mind you I met some similar types today but one good thing that came out of the visit, my business cards are now on their counter:j

Just stopped for a break, need to make the bed but I am trying to put it off until later:rolleyes: Methinks I had better do some washing too as my laundry basket is full:rolleyes:

Numpty enjoy your council meeting - they might give you cups of tea with hobnobs:D

Good. Give you a chance to get your voice heard. If you don't like public speaking, take notes along to read from.

silly question - your incisive wit, glowing personality & all round fabulousness of course

I'm sure emily will help us out with a bit of bumping too :A but fear that the actual bashing ( should there be any) will be down to us ... * flexes acerbic tone in anticiaption*

I'm afraid I'll be away Friday-Monday
