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:

I'm torn between having watched this far, I need to keep going and see it through or going to bed and hoping it's all just a bad dream!

I was contemplating adding things to ebay while I watch - but that's just madness!

It's a bad dream, nicca, that's what I'm hoping anyway.

Aw, "None of the above" only got 125 votes in Basildon . If that had been my area, he'd have got another one .

Do you mean that an unelected PM wants to continue after losing his first vote!

I'm still here 3dogs. Don't actually feel that sleepy and I don't need to get up early tomorrow so might go make some peppermint tea and see what's going on.

I've never wandered over to Mouseann's thread I should maybe have a wee look.

You know why, all the other candidates names started with O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z and the voters were totally confused when there was no 'above'

Seems lots of voter's were easily confused today

Your lights off - have you gone to bed? You'll miss all the excitement

We have just had our breakfast cereal with yoghurt and melon, so it is officially Friday
