    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

    Morning all!

    Hope you are all well. Been AWOL this weekend, sorry. Back to the weekly grind now, sat waiting for work to come in.

    Taking Princess Tikka Masala to the vets tonight for her jabs. It's her first visit and I'm suspecting she's going to act like a wild cat, doesn't like being handled (unless she decides she wants to be) and hates going in her carrier. Tikka's not as calm as my 3 lads, who all love going to the vet for some odd reason. Don't think the poor vet knows what she's let herself in for:o

    aaah! I didn't name her Tikka, she used to belong to my best friend, but we added the princess bit as she sits on her cushion looking down on the lads like she's royalty and the Masala tag, well... that's obvious! Also known as chicken tikka masala when she sees a spider and runs :rotfl:
