    A long time ago Pania wrote the message below to Newcomers or anyone who comes across a troll on the forum.


    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 “Report” icon, as shown below:
    report.gif

    Click the icon and then "send" the message which will inform the MSE 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 boult, good to see you again. Sorry you're having a bad week, sending you some (((hugs))) and hope they help.

    Some chutney would be lovely thanks, I've got some very strong cheddar that would go well with it, it's in the fridge if anyone wants to try some:D

    That's some very well-timed chutney boult, I'm just off for lunch now, it will go very well with my salad:j:j:j

    Eeek to the half marathon, I think you're very brave to even think about doing that. Not sure about any tips apart from good shoes. There's a thread somewhere about running I think, they'll probably be able to help and give you lots of advice.

    Good luck x

    Bumping time. Good afternoon folks.

    Sorry to hear about your bad week and about your friend's mother boult. Chutney sounds yum, I've never done chutney.
    Good luck with the half marathon training - how long til the race? I'd suggest signing up for some other events between now and then, say a couple of 5ks and maybe a 10k to build up gradually and to help set targets along the way.
