    I may be a BG, but even I'm not convinced by that very poor excuse/reasoning from MSE.

    Its a very poor excuse indeed from MSE Towers - I used the confused smiley a lot because sometimes I am very confused indeed, I use the rolleye smiley too usually when I am poking fun at myself.

    Hey, I have a wicked idea just in case newbies get upset - lets get rid of the forum altogether that way no-body need get upset or offended because there will be nothing to be offended by:j:exclamati:naughty::whistle::silenced:

    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

    We need new smilies for sure - actually I find the wagging finger smilie more offensive and that topsy turvy Martin is also bad. Lets have a total revamp...we have new headers now we need new smilies and not pathetic excuses from MSE Towers. Maybe instead of the forum being un-moderated that they should start moderating it instead of behaving like the gestapo (insert rolleyes smilie here to note scarcasm).
