    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

    3Dogs, I've just read about your mum, hugs to you both x

    I'm glad you agree about him! I can't really see him as a hobbit though so that'll be interesting!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Erme and Handy - many thanks for your kind wishes about me Mam - she is improving, we just need to make sure that everything that can be done, is done and that she isn't being put into a nursing home needlessly

    Erme hun - you take care, you were getting on brilliantly, and now this - thinking of you pet - God bless

    I've had a really lazy day today until 3 pm when I went to slimming class with my neice - I had missed 2 weeks but I had lost 3 lbs so that is a total loss of 4 st 4 lbs - :j :j really proud of myself as it is difficult staying on the plan when I am up at Mam's, with my brother's wonderful cooking
