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 everyone ...If many little people, in many little places, do many little things,
they can change the face of the world.

Good morning all
The computer crisis was that she is trying to download a 3.5GB file for her satnav on her useless rural broadband - estimated download time 17hours!!
Swimming event was exhausting, finally got home and ate a meal at 10pm, half way through get a phone call as bro had broken down and was stuck in a dangerous place - and his car has no hazard lights! So had to drive Dad (who had been drinking), tools and jump leads 20miles away and wait with him, first AA vehicle took 2hours to arrive, and the recovery truck took a further 40mins. Finally got home just after 2.30am.
Nicca - popcorn sounds tasty -I might have some this evening. Well if I've finished the report that is needed for 9am tomorrow!

Hey ho back to the grindstone, written report more than half done, but next is some serious number crunching to slot figures into the report.
If I drank coffee I'd be on double strength by now.A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0
