    Hi

    Go Elna :) you've said what many think. Jennywren just turns up and spits out her poisin, why does she never offer any support. If you don't like someone don't post. We are here to offer support not to put people down and make them feel worse. Jennywren how would you like it?

    Chrisov try to ignore her, we are here to support you through this horrible time.

    Love

    Hi Chrisov,

    I hope you are still doing well? I really miss seeing your posts and you humour. It's absolutely certain that we will be about to help you anytime you need it so don't let a bit of negativity put you off coming here and saying how you feel. Its very important to have that safe place where you can say exactly how you are, I for several have been wondering how your getting on and hope you do know we care about you and do actually like you. A ((( ))) for you and come back soon. x

    Hi
    Jennywren, are you for real ? Or are you just trying to annoy everyone on the site? The least helpful thing anyone can say is pull yourself together. You seem to think it is a simple thing to do, and good luck to you if you can do it, but we are not all so lucky. Maybe the time will come when you need support, and then I don't think you will appreciate us all telling you to pull yourself together. Please try to be a little more kind and thoughtful.

    Joan

    HI Chrisov,
    sorry not to be on before ...... have been thinking of you whilst dealing with other stuff here.

    I think that Elna & Mistywillow have said most of what I would have wanted to say, although they have put it so much better than I could have right now!

    All I would add is to remember just how far you have already come, and to look back and think of just how far along your road you have travelled, and how many times along that journey you thought you'd not make it THIS fro, and yet here you are, and with loads of others admiring you for the way in which you have done so.

    take care & dont' b afraid to be honest on here - we are here for you and won't judge you harshly - honest.
    love and hugs,
    A

    Hi
    I am beginning to doubt that jennywren is a real person suffering from arthritis, as she appears to be one of those people who likes to reap havoc on forums with unhelpful remarks.
    Jenny, maybe you post these remarks because you are bored or want attention yourself, but truly there are better ways of getting it. I am sure you do not really enjoy the antagonism that your negative postings evoke. So stop playing games with vunerable people . You do seem to be particularly aggressive to Chrisov who is actually doing an incredible job dealing with all his difficulties.
    So turn over a new leaf Jenny if you are real and join in the spirit of the forum which is to SUPPORT each other! If you are just a mischief maker there are plenty of other sites I am sure where the people on it are not of such a vunerable nature.

    :mrgreen: there was a "nasty piece of work" on here some time ago just like jennywren and in the end they were totally ignored by us and slunk off. :mrgreen:

    Here Here Misty
    So glad you put it so well.
    Don't know what's the matter with me. Beating around the bush trying not to upset Jenny who clearly isn't thinking about upsetting anyone else.
    What I really want to say is that chrisov is WANTED on here and natsiness IS NOT!!
    If you can't play nice Jenny then don't!

    Just a thought, but could Jennywren`s real rason for being on the forum - apart from winding everyone up! - be the one she gives on the Chit Chat Forum........Angel.

    Hi Angel :D

    Probably, but she has blotted her copybook big time and no man will wish to know her nor anyone else.

    I hope you are ok and that your day goes well. I am off to Windsor today to meet a friend for lunch. :D:D Hope the sun shines but I believe showers are forecast.

    Luv

    Have a lovely day Elna. I have great memories of a day spent in and around Windsor with my late husband, a few months before he died. Much love....Angel.

    Dear Angel

    I am sorry to hear about your husband. Windsor is a lovely place. I live fairly close but have not been there many times. It is good that you have happy, fond memories of being there together.

    Love

    hi, i just wanted to pull this thread back up.
    i was going to post have we got a troll,but reading through her threads i dont need too.
    i think uv all got the plot.
    there r loads of sites with trolls on the people that take pleasure from others misfortune.
    so to ignore is the best line of defence,goodbye to rubbish.
    we all try to help each other & snide comments dont help anybody.
    so if u r a troll go find some other form of amusement,cause we aint laughing.

    Hi Debs

    Totally agree: troll alert - ignore, ignore, delete, delete.

    Great to see so many of you saying what I was thinking when I saw this thread and other postings from this person, could not believe what I was reading! I'm new to the site and didn't feel I should really comment but I'm pleased that you more established members have done so.

    Bless you, Shona - although you are new to the site I am pleased to note that you have not been taken in by it all.

    I hope you are ok and your day goes well. Looks like it may be a pleasant day in Buckinghamshire, the sun is shining. :D

    Love

    Hi Elna

    I'm feeling pretty good today, have been taking it easy over the past week after a nasty flare up! Sun is shining here in Suffolk too so its all good. Managed to put some washing on the line this morning which I haven't been able to do for a while so that made me smile. Bit sad when you get excited about stuff like that isn't it!

    I've already met some lovely people on this site and have been made to feel very welcome. Colin has given me some good advice and Toni has been great also

    No doubt we will speak again soon

    Hi Chrisov :D

    You made me smile. I remember bits of that story too. :D You are not thick either and you know that :lol::lol:

    We are talking about an internet troll because they post irrelevant, offensive, controversial, or unclear reponses or material on an internet community.

    Trolls can unfortunately be a common occurrence, across the internet, and there are various steps which can be taken to combat them. The best thing to do is to walk away from them, since trolls feed on attention, and they will usually disappear if they are ignored. If the troll gets no reponse this will eventually drive them into moving on in search of fresh prey.

    Hope you are diddling ok today and if we have sunshine in Bucks and in Suffolk you must be seeing the sun too. 8) :D

    I hope you have an enjoyable day.

    Love
    Elna x

    Hi Chrisov :D

    Please do not go away and think about the troll thing. Just mention it to your son; he'll know about them. I did not know that was what they were called until last night when Debs (mash65) posted. You are exactly right, there was one some time ago, "roar, roar," just a clue, remember? :roll:

    I wonder what the weather will be like for the long weekend? Hope it is dry at least.

    Look after yourself,
    Luv

    Hello Christov

    Just wanted to say I've been reading through this thread and I am really sorry things are so bad for you at the moment.

    It's not easy when things are so bad for you to get out of the deep hole that you feel you are in and 'less than sympathetic' comments are just likely to make you sink deeper.

    I can see that you are really well thought of by the people on here who know you well and there must be a reason for that.

    Best wishes

    Um....... I probably shouldn't admit this but....... It was Billy Goat Gruff........... I 'mite' know the whole story but them again 'if' I did would I say........... It was good though.......... :D :oops: :wink:

    I'm with you Chrisov, but most people you can trust...... I just am slightly aware and get a bit scared of attacks as I am a deep coward over aggro of any kind........ Hey Toni says I should go on an assertion course, maybe we both should? Half way would be some where round Elna.........I didn't know about Internet trolls. I know a few real ones! :lol: Do some work for one. Anyway I shall go find a book and read up on how the Goats crossed the bridge..... :oops: :lol: x

    I remember
    It said "I am a troll foldiroll"
    What a meanie it was, but we can be wise to trolls and send them packing.....
    Shona - I am glad to see your insight I was a bit concerned that 'newer' members would maybe be taken in by the trol, but glad to see NOT.
    Ther's more of us Billy Goats eh?!
    LOVE to all

    Big up the billy goats, they conquered the troll!

    Hopefully people will stop responding to posts and the troll will crawl under some other bridge...........
