We’d like to remind Forumites to please avoid political debate on the Forum.

This is to keep it a safe and useful space for MoneySaving discussions. Threads that are – or become – political in nature may be removed in line with the Forum’s rules. Thank you for your understanding.

PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

    Again, it's not clear what Jellynailer means by

    However as they have now apparently found the ignore button, I suspect we will never know! Thanks to @YoungBlueEyes for clarifying how they use the thanks button (my fat fingers keep typo'ing this as "thnaks", so apologies if that has appeared anywhere!) and further apologies to the OP for this thread going OT!

    No bother EH, I suspect a lot of people use the thanks button as I do. Tbh if I'd refreshed the page before posting I might not have posted.

    Anyway. How are you getting on @CookwiththeE? Has all the rain we've had recently shown up any new patches? 
    Honesty is the best poverty.
  • I can see those I blocked are still posting on this site.  I hope for the OP's sake you are not continuing to have a go at me.  

    OP - to block nuisance posts - The Forum has a useful 'ignore' feature which means you can opt to not see a user's posts. To add someone to your ignore list, click their username, view their profile, click on the downward arrow in the red button and select ignore – all done!  This advice is given in my new thread = Does MSEF need an updated protocol
