    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


    Welcome to the debt free wannabe board. A great place for seeking advice and inspiration and support on getting out of debt. Please read the above in case you come across one the very few trolls or more frequent spammers that come our way
    always smile no matter how broken you are.

    Thought about you today Nicca whe DH was flicking stations on TV and stopped on one of the fitness channels - we sat eating our cooked breakfast lunch watching them - thought you might try that in your gym clothes :j :j :j that's you jumping doing star jumps :D:D

    Did you actually go in the gym by the way - you just said you got there - I guess from the ouch that you did !!! :(

    Hi 3Dogs - love the new avi:D:D

    I've only just got round to finding out how to do this and finding one to put on - the first one I chose was rejected - 'too big' and 'invalid file' - and this one is supposed to be shaking his head from side to side - never mind, at least I've got one now :j :j

    Hope Washer's OK, we haven't heard from her yet, have we?

    Hi 3Dogs,
    Great bumping job you're doing...

    No, not heard from Washer, I'm hoping she's OK as well.

    Numpty will fix your avi when he's back - we'll get your dog shaking his head..

    Part of the Furniture 10,000 Posts Name Dropper Debt-free and Proud!
    Good evening all, was at work all day yesterday and have been busy with sloggus domesticus today so missed all the fun with the forums going offline and coming back on with stars and things missing. Hope it has resolved itself now. fabulous day weatherwise today, managed to take apart the chicken house and give it a thorough hose down (chickens secured in enclosed patch of garden). Also sat and watched Dr Who with DS and a plate of curry, as OH at work. Glad to see the thread has been successfully bumped on a regular basis, despite the absence of the lads!
