    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

    Just an answer right back to you!! (*)

    Yep - interesting it came from a "member" who is not (or not any longer) on the members' list.

    Well done Numpty. As for surveys, do what I do and lie that way I usually get a few although when I am being totally honest, I answer the leading questions and then get told that I am not what they are looking for.

    I do quite well on the YouGov surveys and have managed to scrape together £10 since last year.

    Am tired today, I watched the Murray match last night - no dinner, then I set about sorting out papers for my solicitor today, then got distracted by one of my best mates as he rang me quite late and we chatted on the phone til about 1am when I went to bed, not much sleep up at 7 to start bashing my computer and sorting the papers out for the solicitor. Busy day, see solicitor at midday in Bham city centre then back home before I go to a meeting at the jobcentre at 3.30pm.

    No rest for the wicked:rolleyes:
