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

I posted in the big forum last night, made a bit of a plum of myself but recovered here with help from 3dogs!!! Much hiding behind me cuppa and biscuit was done in order to hide my beetroot face!

Morning Allie, iwannabeloved, Geebee, Numpty, 3Dogs and Carol
Busy already this morning, Fred won't know what's hit him:D.
Iwannabeloved - spammers usually have a link in their post to a site - advertising something or giving advice to click the link in their post to go to another "helpful" site - don't click any links would be my advice and report the post. If in any doubt, come back here and tell us which thread and the post number and one of us will have a look at it. Trolls are just offensive scum (oops, sorry, that's probably not very PC:o).
niddy - well done on the spammer zapping last night - we can rely on you:T:T
Off to check on my dancing elephants and banana lot now, back later (anyone wondering about that, it's the NSD May thread, come and have a look and, no, I'm not spamming:D)
Hi to anyone logging on later.
Hope everyone has a good FridayThe time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time
