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

Touchy Old Grouch:p

TOG - Terry Wogan - Terry's old girls/geezers I think, referring to the age group who listened to him on the radio I suppose.

TYGs as well - Terry's Young Geezers - slightly younger age bracket as well.

Touchy old grouch is a good alternative as well though

Hi folks

Fab self portrait there MF:rotfl:

I miss Terry Wogan's breakfast show - I can remember nearly crashing the car a few times when I used to be employed listening to his Janet & John stories which were so full of innuendo they were hysterical.

I still don't like listening to Radio 2


I've just moved my old washer (white vinegar needed for rubber marks):D
Old fridge freezer now defrosting :cool:
good job I didn't have much food in it;)
the food I did have is now in the shed at - 0.5:eek:

Radio 2 is fab Numpty...in the morning we have Chris Evans (v.early its that silly Sarah Kennedy, I cant stand her), and we have Steve Wright, lunchtimes its Jeremy Vine (he's good). They play good music too and are better than Radio 1:p
