    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

    Hello all

    Hope people had good weekends.

    A new thread already? can hardly believe it, guess the board must be getting busier again to have got through so many posts so quickly!

    Hmmm... I think the reason could be all the chat about wine, food, wine, food, more wine and more food, Tixy. Good to see you again, hope you're well

    Thanks for the food guys :)

    Arguing over fred? LOL

    What about CAKE :D


    I've been eating more today...I had a cheese and onion sandwich for lunch and porridge for breakfast and like not so good but like midget gems and tomato juice for tea and my antibiotics and now just about take head medicine and think about going for some sleep...

    Local holilday here tomorrow so I can rest and tidy :)

    How is everyone?

    I think that the antibiotics are already working :D

    Anyhow I didn't realise it was 4000 posts :p

    And like I notice I've only been on for one and a bit threads but we have a few new ppl on here like red and stuff.

    But we love you all just the same

    Somehow I am going to beat this eating disorder but right now I don't know how....

    Got to go now...
