Hi Everyone,

Not sure if we have this thread over here on BR board but DFW bump this often so that newcomers new & old are aware of the possibility of `troll` issues.

They `bump` it along regularly to keep it in peoples minds. Perhaps it would work over here?

Pania`s words are so brilliant I could`nt better them myself so I copied as below.

Notice to newcomers re trolls.
Hi everybody.


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 a comment made on any thread you post asking for help and advice please realise this comment is not directed at you personally.
We really are all a lovely bunch here (oops, modest, sorry) so please ignore these nasty comments and continue to post here as normal.

what should i do if i get a comment made on my thread?

firstly do not respond to the comment as this invariably is what the person wants. At the bottom of the post, on the left hand side is a red "warning" triangle. Click this and then "send" the message that comes up. This will report the message to abuse who will review it's content and delete it.

The person we had this morning was particularly vile and nasty and please believe me is an extreme rarity here.
Above all PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THE BOARDS. THIS SITE IS AN ASSET TO SO MANY, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT FEELS THE WORLD IS FALLING IN ON YOU. THERE IS SUCH A WEALTH OF ADVICE HERE TO BE HAD THAT THE COMMENTS OF ONE MUST NOT DETER YOU FROM AVAILING YOURSELF OF THE KNOWLEDGE HERE!!!!

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 debt crisis

PLEASE DO NOT LET THE ACTIONS OF THE MINORITY RUIN THAT.


Kind wishes
P

mmm i love crumpets...the beggars won't fit in my new 'value' toaster though (£7) after the other one went pop...

toasted troll anyone? x

kerrypn

OOOoooh yum, i dont mind if you burn them either confused :rotfl:...the troll not the crumpet :rotfl:

Don't get me started on toasters, the £7 one from Tesco kept breaking and the £11 one from Asda has just gone a bit wobbly on me, the stop button isn't working grrrr. However the Asda one has lots of room for crumpets, might even get a troll in there as well

I'm still after a spit-roasted troll, although toasted would do nicely at the moment...

Crumpets... yum, yum, though definitely not with mayo which is what I thought Youthiswastedontheyoung was recommending until I read your post properly! Sorry, two glasses of wine don't promote accurate reading of some of these posts.

Slinks off to find a troll to stick on a spit roaster ...

my 7 quid tesco toaster is working fine after 2 years....which was more than could besaid for the chrome Morphy Richards heap.


trolls aren't even much good for compost.

And I'm fed up with having to pressure wash troll bitz out of my tyre treads......but you have to...after a week they start to smell horrid.....even a couple of those green smelly trees cannot cope...

Good morning everyone, hope you are all well and still on troll alert!
