    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

    Hello All (and hi to sizzler, good to see you popping in, hope all is well:))

    Horace - thanks, looks like a trip to HoF for me then, though on the last free gift I was miffed to see I already had both choices of eyeshadows, still I had another and donated it to a friend. I don't mind paying for stuff that I know agrees with my skin, but I do always try to make sure I only buy when I get the gifts - so much so that I never buy black mascara as I probably have around 20mini ones and don't often wear black anyway.

    Did you have a good trip home Numpty - can't imagine it was much fun on a busy friday. Has home managed without you - no washing machine mis-haps whilst you were gone?!

    Today I gave Mom and myself the day off from painting :D and this afternoon we went and chose new ceiling lights for the kitchen. Then big bro came round to fit them and the new hall curtain rail.:j

    Goodnight all

    Evening all, I took your advice niccatw, and hit the router several times, it seems to have worked since:j

    Tixy, are you going to post a pic of your makeover in the kitchen, I'm sure everyone would love to see it, especially me, cause I'm nosey. As soon as I see one of the neighbours house up for sale I'm on the website looking at the interior, more for inspiration than anything, I'm useless with colour and coordination.

    Niddy - you are truly wonderful and knowledgeable.

    Couldn't get to the vet, my OH was late home due to traffic and roadworks and it is too far to walk with the cat carrier, so no news on the kitty front I'm afraid.

    I hope all is well with everyone, have an enjoyable evening.

    Washer.x.

    Hi Numpty:wave:good to see you again, sorry about the carp journey home:(

    Tixy - washer is right, we'd love to see some pictures of your new kitchen (I'm nosey as well:)). Hope you enjoyed and your mum enjoyed your day off - are you pleased with the new lights?

    Washer - hope pud is OK keep us posted:)

    niddy - I have to echo what lots of others have said - you may not think you are particularly special, but you are for the amount of time you devote to helping other people:A. Now, don't go getting big-headed, as 3Dogs says, we can bring you back down to earth with a huge BUMP...

    Just off to update NSD-ers... might be back later
    :) The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time :)
