    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



    refreshed as the other was getting to long because evryone is wonderful and helpful!!!.:D

    and again.

    have had an exciting day today, been out with a chum, found a rare plant, foraged for raspberries and then nearly got hit by a spray can as some eejit decided to vandalise a van that had been left outside the flats - can went whistling past my ear:eek: Now I went all CSI, called the cops and then went out with a poly bag and picked up the evidence, made a note of the reg number of the van and gave it to the cops when they rang me back.

    As the van is owned by a cake shop I am wondering if they will give me a free cake:confused:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Oi...I was an innocent bystander, wrecked van was there when I went to chippy tonight but had gone by the time I came back:rolleyes: Will ring them tomorrow and offer them the spray can - shame really as I wanted to contact them about wedding cakes and don't feel able to now:rolleyes:

    No dough or gateaux involved - just spray paint and kicks.
