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

They do get tense over there, if your in the right frame of mind it can be ok
but whatever you post can be ignored and someone can turn it to state there view point rather than discuss it, if that makes sense

and the smilie is pretty much my sleep pattern:eek:


but it is getting better:j somedays i sleep for 3 or 4 hours straight:D

Hi millie and welcome,

If you want tips then its perhaps best to start your own thread as that way you will get more answers and help that way.

We are keeping this thread going for fellow troll patrollers - and if we keep bumping it, then newbies like yourself can read about trolls and will know to ignore them.

Welcome once again to our happy DFW home.:D

Welcome to MSE. The majority of people on here will be more than happy to offer advice to any issues, please dont be dishaertened by any trolls that may or may not appear to throw a spanner in the works for you. Or bait you for an argument, simply by not replying to senseless and rude replies, will starve them of attention. those in the know to your problem will be more than happy to assist you.
