    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


    Morning Numpty ... and everyone - starting the day the troll chasing way!

    I was out delivering leaflets again today but did get a free lunch in exchange for my labours:j Some folks are strange - they don't have letterboxes, if they don't have letterboxes how do they get their post?:confused: I have hurt my foot too, I have no idea what I have done but the sole of my foot at the heel end hurts like hell:rolleyes:

    Blast it - my chum has just texted me to say that we are no longer going out tonight as her 13 year old has puked in the car, has been out all day and hasnt worn a hat or had anything to drink so has sunstroke. Oh well, I can always watch the talent show - best see what I can rustle up to eat as I forgot to get food from the freezer.

    BUMP from 2.

    Oh no Horace you may have missed meeting the man of your dreams! Or maybe he would have turned out an absolute disaster.
    A really good friend of mine tried to match make me with someone wo could not have been further from my type. I would never have been interested in him, I could tell instantly - it made me wonder if she really knew me at all if she thought he was my type!! :rolleyes:
