    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

    The less strain you put on the leg, even hopping about, the better Boult - let it heal ;)

    3Dogs is right, try to stay off it as much as you can. Did the hospital give you crutches to help you get around a bit?

    Hiya Erme - nice to talk to you again - hope you get e-cig sorted, I know how much you'll need it, but :( to the antibiotics

    It's kind of semi sorted... Connector not in far enough but otherwise fine (so I have to push down on it a lot to make it vape)...However poor OD took another bashing last night (second or third this week) when I went and bought a lil mama tank from the states for the e-cig...saves topping up every two secs...Just need to get some nails to punch holes in the cartos LOL...Have a hammer somewhere...and figure out how to take out the carto when tank partially full without spilling juice everywhere

    rofl....you with a zimmer frame. I don't think I could get anywhere in my house with one of those. Can't you go back and ask for sticks?

    Considering it's a non weight bearing cast how you supposed get around with a zimmer? Doesn't make sense to me....LOL

    Bl00dy hell, boult, how are you supposed to get around on one of them when you can't put one foot on the ground - echoing Erme here.... Hope they sort the cast out on Tuesday and that you can get around a bit more after that.

    I'm pleased it's not hurting so much, try and stay off it as much as you can until Tuesday, if it's calmed down and seems to be healing they're more likely to put a weight bearing cast on so you can get around a bit more.


    And hi to everyone else, hope you all have a lazy Sunday - love the picture 3Dogs:D
