    A new page time for one of these x ;)



    Over the last few weeks we have had a number of "troll" attacks on the boards.

    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 such a comment made on any thread you post, asking for help and advice, please realise this comment is not directed at you personally so please ignore these nasty comments and continue to post here as normal because the majority of us really are a lovely bunch – ooops, modesty!

    What should I do if I get a comment made on my thread?
    Firstly do not respond to the comment as this is invariably what the troll wants. So to get rid of the offending post, at the bottom of the post towards the right hand side you’ll see a red "Warning" triangle within a blue “Abuse” icon, as shown below:



    report.gif

    Click the icon and then "send" the message which will inform the abuse team of the post, who will then review its content and deal with it as appropriate; sometimes even deleting the troll by making their status PPR’d (Posting Privileges Removed). Remember, this site is an asset to so many people, especially those that feels like their world is falling in around them. There is a wealth of knowledgeable people here all willing to help, whatever you do, do not let the comments of one silly individual deter you from availing yourself of the knowledge base that is on offer here.


    PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THE FORUM


    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 their debt crisis

    Hi everyone
    A grey and cloudy bump from me (just the weather of course, I'm bright and bouncy as only a Tigger should be:D:D:D)

    Hope everyone is well today.

    If, you're right about Fred, lightning quick moves there, maybe we should tell a certain Signor Capello about him:rotfl:


    I'll be back on duty later - got some lovely housework to tackle now:(

    Good afternoon all, not my usual self at present as had horrendous row with OH this morning. It would take too long to explain the full story, but it's to do with my daughter's wedding at beginning of July, the fact that he is not going, and the fact that whilst he wants nowt to do with the whole affair, he gets mad if he is not fully informed of developments! At the moment I can't do right for doing wrong, so it's best I just let him sulk as he will not listen to reason when he is in one of these moods. Sorry to cast a note of doom and gloom on this happy thread, but stuff happens, doesn't it? I am at work all day tomorrow so hopefully things will calm down - will come back on here in a day or two when I get a free moment. I am too full of anger and frustration to be very good company for you all at present!

    Hi all

    Sorry not been about much today - I have been cleaning the bathroom floor, I thought it was getting wet around the loo and have discovered that the loo is leaking:mad: Had to text my landlord so hopefully the men will be in tomorrow - the leak is coming from the area where the loo is fixed to the floor so its going to be a big job and I have to go out tomorrow afternoon as well..sigh.

    I have managed to type up an assignment which I have yet to submit for marking (the first one I have done for months).

    Hope you are all having a fab day.

    Good Afternoon to all, Nargle sorry to hear you are having words, its even happens to handy. Mrs Handy is a technophobe and cant understand why I spend so much time at the keyboard. Hope things calm down for you soon.

    Car Boot, brilliant we took @ £150 in total, but we did come back with tomato plants, plants for tubs, and a set of 1890's blue and white tureens to go on our dresser. Mrs handy cant wait to go again next week. We took our terriers with us, there must have been 20 or more people that brought Border Terriers. Mine thought it was great to meet so many relations.

    Has anyone seen Niddy, is he missing in action, or just having a lost weekend?

    I will look in on you again soon, I have to go and unload the car, luckily all but one of the boxes are empty.

    Cheers All, handy.
