    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.

    Please join in and bump Fred to page one if he is found lost and wandering on page 2 or 'horror of horrors' page 3 :rotfl:
    :o 2010 - year of the troll :o

    Good morning all and Happy Election Day. Hope it turns out ok for all of us.

    OH managed to source a window motor repair kit which sounds like it will do the job, however I will believe it when I see it. Handyman, thanks for the offer, will certainly try PMing you if it doesn't do the job. That's what I like about this forum, if you don't know something, you know that on here there will be a man who does!

    Cheer up solvent, you are allowed the odd Spending Day you know!

    Having a good time with the builder boys, Numpty?

    And to everyone else - catch you all later (might see you around tonight, Niddy, as I am on nights - if it's quiet I'll bring a flask of coffee and some bacon sandwiches.)
    One life - your life - live it!

    Thanks Nargle, don't mind the spending, it's Tatco I hate:mad::mad::mad:
    Well done on sourcing a window repair kit, hope it's suitable.

    In a much better mood now though:D:D, so a much more civilised "hello" from me now and hope everyone is well today.

    Handyman, love the latest story:rotfl:.

    Well, I've voted today, keeping my fingers crossed now.

    Off to do some work, back later

    Oh and BUMP - found Fred halfway down page 2:eek:
