Notice to Newcomers re Trolls - Part 11

IF

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:

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

Love this HL, it definitely merits a second viewing.

to the cough, that's really annoying and is always worse at night :( Hope the brandy helps x

I find whiskey with lemon juice, a spoonful oof honey and hot water works well, certainly knocks me out. Oh, and before you go to bed, rub Vicks vapour rub (other brands are available) on the soles of your feet and put some socks on. It helps alleviate coughing during the night AND you have smoother feet in the morning (not that I'm saying you have rough feel HL)

Oh Noooo :eek: a JCB has dug through the BT cable and no phone or internet at home at the moment. So a just leaving work Friday bump from me. Hopefully will be back online soon.

Hope you feel better soon HL. Hot honey and lemon drink with a shot of whisky works well for me.
