    Me neither guys, and I've been here much longer than you and they haven't thrown me out yet.....

    I just think it's important to keep the notice in view for all newbies to see and it's particularly important here because there are more trolls on this board.

    Join in at the Inn as well - everyone's really friendly - I don't have as much time to go in there as I used to now I'm doing the NSD thread but they have lots of lovely drinks and comfy chairs to sit in (oh, and all the papers and magazines, free:j)

    Free newspapers and Mags?... cool!!, i never buy them myself! :rotfl:
    Wow Loo a year!! Well I'm pleased I met you x :A

    An anniversary seems like a good idea, parteeee!!!! :rotfl:

    Some people have obviously way too much time on their hands.
    As i have stated before, i know nothing about BR but from the posts i've read, it seems that nobody would choose this option lightly and for some nerd to come along and make jokes about it must be really damned annoying to say the least!. :mad:

    Time for a reminder why we do what we do x;)

    Hello and Welcome, If you are new or old to this board and receive a comment that is not helpful or insensitive please don’t be put off. You will receive the help you need.......x



    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 such a comment made on any thread you post, asking for help and advice, please realise this comment is not directed at you personally so please ignore these nasty comments and continue to post here as normal because the majority of us really are a lovely bunch – ooops, modesty!

    What should I do if I get a comment made on my thread?
    Firstly do not respond to the comment as this is invariably what the troll wants. So to get rid of the offending post, at the bottom of the post towards the right hand side you’ll see a red "Warning" triangle within a blue “Abuse” icon, as shown below:


    report.gif

    Click the icon and then "send" the message which will inform the abuse team of the post, who will then review its content and deal with it as appropriate; sometimes even deleting the troll by making their status PPR’d (Posting Privileges Removed). Remember, this site is an asset to so many people, especially those that feels like their world is falling in around them. There is a wealth of knowledgeable people here all willing to help, whatever you do, do not let the comments of one silly individual deter you from availing yourself of the knowledge base that is on offer here.

    PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THE FORUM


    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 their debt crisis


    PLEASE DO NOT LET THE ACTIONS OF THE MINORITY RUIN THAT
