    Hi Everyone :hello:

    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


    PLEASE DO NOT LET THE ACTIONS OF THE MINORITY RUIN THAT

    hee hee hee thanks GB, 3dogs and the rest of the gang!

    Happy Bum-wigglin' Friday!!! :D:D:D:rotfl:

    feeling ok so far this morning, but can feel some nerves building :(
    i drove out to where the interview will be yesterday so i know how to get there, ive done a bit of research into the company and what they do, i've planned out some answers and read through my uni work...when i get home i'll iron, eat and read through stuff. I'm planning on taking a wee notepad, my CV and a copy of my honours project from uni, should i be taking anything else?

    :)

    Allie, I don't understand ............. why iron it if your going to eat it, and if you eat it you can't read it through - you have completely confused me now ...................... confused0024.gif
