    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

    And straight onto a new page. Welcome to any newcomers. DFW is a lovely community and a great source of information on howto tackle your debts and what you can do if you are having difficulties. There are a very small minority of pathetic idiots who want to ruin that for us. If you see one of these people please ignore them and instead listen to /or wait for the good advice that is sure to follow. :D

    Naw Pet it's not me with the wine, it's that there Spoon after her horrible day at work -I had my drinky last night - a couple of whisky's :j

    Of course if Spoon wants to share her bottle, I'm up for it - but actually I think she needs it more than me - I've had a quiet day at home :D:D

    Crikey, you must all think I'm an alcoholic then, rather than just a useless touch typist! :D

    Apologies for diappearing on you for a few days - it's been glorius here in Glasgow so I've been out in the sun with my friend and her children as they don't go back to school until next week. Feeling that sleepy, sun-kissed way you do... but still the usual blue-white colour of us Scottish folks!

    Well done on passing Numpty!
    I hope tomorrow is a better day for you Spoon!
    And hello to every-one else :)

    :j Hi all, handyman is back. After looking at niddy in his mankini on Sunday,
    My IP went down and my laptop decided to delete all my passwords. Wonder how many others ran away in fright? :eek: Any how I've tried fitting numptys steering wheel and it seems to be working after a fashion. So Night Owls I'll be lurking for a while catching up on what I've missed.

    Best wishes to all handyman123.:j
