    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

    Hi all, Hi 3Dogs how are things on your thread now? when I looked in this afternoon a Too Hat and what looked like his AE were monopolising things!

    I thought leave them to it if they don't get a reaction then like most idiots they will get bored and annoy someone else.

    I could go on to say I felt like telling them what to do, but probably they do that already, and possibly enjoy it as well. Though I know it would make my eyes water :eek::eek::eek:

    Cheers, handy.

    Cheers Handy - trolls were deleted thanks - glad to see you getting your feet back under the table and making yourself comfy again :j :j

    I think it may also be time for some wine!

    Beware if my lights out it does't mean I'm not around.

    I learned that from Niddy:D
