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

Good words of wisdom:T:A

Now why didnt I think of that Numpty (the army surplus shop that is not the blow up monkey). Clio you might also look for an inflatable sheep to tie to the tent if you cant get a blow up doll.

Leave nothing in your tent - as Glastonbury is rife with thieves:rolleyes:

Army surplus will be able to sell you a billy can with folding handle. Enamel things are ok, have never known them to taint food (I use an enamel roasting tin in the oven)

Clio - I have two insulated mugs - stainless on outside and plastic inside that I have never used (ok, I probably used one once and then found that it leaked when knocked over - design flaw methinks). You are welcome to have them if you want them - free to Clio's good home:D

Have sent you a PM - ignore the bit about plastic plates, just remembered I have a set of 4 and dont want to break them up - you can get plastic/melamine plates cheaply in Tesco etc amongst the party bbq stuff.
