    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

    If it's any consolation moohound, I have a cat who likes to sneak chilli/curry out of the pan and off plates. I think whiskas should do a chicken chunks in curry or chilli beef chunks.
    I'd hate to be cleaning out the litter tray after that variety.........

    a) I must skim over the intelligent conversations ;)
    b) I have been pondering the sanity of Fred and his companions for a while now...

    :oDidn't mean to offend anyone, please keep feeding me virtual cake HL. You're all lovely people...but also bonkers :rotfl:


    I'd hate to be cleaning out the litter tray after that variety.........

    Ah! Now this particular little cherub likes to do his bizz in nextdoor-but-one's garden, especially in his potted patio plants - serves the guy right for once throwing stones at my old cat to prevent him from going into the garden :D

    Hope your day goes quickly

    So do I :rotfl:
