Hi everyone. Due to severe domestic issues, I will no longer be using these forums. Also due to offensive private messages I have been sent regarding my husband (and others on this site), I no longer feel comfortable to be participating in the community. The majority of people on here are amazing and I wish everyone the best for the future 😀

I'm going through a rough time too at the moment and saw your other post @JBS2022, I'm really sorry you're going through so much and you don't feel comfortable participating here any more. If someone is sending you nasty PMs please pleeaasse report them so they can be dealt with and can't do it to other people!
I hope with a bit of time you'll reconsider and come back because I know when times are rubbish and hard, places like this online are so helpful to me. As you said most people on here are so amazing and supportive and I know your presence will be so missed -
I'm sorry to hear this because your comments have always been extremely helpful. If you haven't already reported those PM's to the scope team then please do that because there's other members that have also been receiving them and it has to be stopped!I hope your situation at home improves too!I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

@JBS2022 that's a shame, I noticed you were quiet. I hope you've reported the pm. Maybe take a little time out and see how you feel

Im so sorry this is happening to you to, we have lost a lot off members through this.please don’t leave.
Im maybe wrong but I think if I get any nasty PMs I would take a screenshot and post it on a thread. It can’t be allowed to go on.

@JBS2022
Sorry to hear about the issues which you have experienced. I only joined this site a few weeks ago and you kindly welcomed me within minutes of joining for which I am very grateful. I hope that you may reconsider your decision as you will be sorely missed. -
@JBS2022 Stay on the forum. Otherwise you are giving in to the d**k heads. There are people on the forum who unfortunately are mentally ill, so you need to understand and tolerate it. No doubt I will get an offensive PM, but I will ignore and delete it. The important thing to remember is that the vast majority of people on the forum are ok, so your posts are welcomed.

I agree with @Lou67 screenshot them. Name and shame. Don't let people like that stop you from enjoying scope.

This is a shame. I've always found your posts insightful and helpful.
Good luck to you
Seems a bit of a theme with PM's. On a lot of sites I post on, PM's are disabled to new users until they have a certain amount of public posts ... could weed out the trolls if the forum software allowed it ?

Hi JBS
This is sad news, a valuable asset to the site.
Hopefully, you'll rethink and be back soon.
