Trolls
Trolls, flamers, griefers, jerks: They are known by many names, but they are always KNOWN. Let's peel back the mystery and take a look inside the world of the troll.
Just The Facts
- Oh, lawd, those trolls done us wrong.
- Baby, don't give me none of that trolling.
But seriously
Trolls are awful. It's tough to do anything worthwhile on the Internet, and even tougher when you have these living roadblocks doing their best to interfere. We suggest medication, or, failing that, intensive psychotherapy.
The best way to deal with trolls varies by type. To deal with the professor and critic, ignoring their rants goes a long way. They may get angrier at first, but the lack of an audience will drive them to more easily riled up communities, soon. Screamers should be gagged somehow, and are usually easy to pick out by their caps lock and swears-to-normal-words ratio. The prophet of doom should be mocked--nothing gets them to go away like knowing their dire warnings aren't being listened to. Robots need to be banned. It's hard, but necessary.
This is ironic because the same person who wrote the sentence "Trolls are awful. It's tough to do anything worthwhile on the Internet, and even tougher when you have these living roadblocks doing their best to interfere." ALSO wrote "Furrys, Furfags, Furfaggots, or those sick fucks who corrupted my childhood. We all know them but do you know about them.. if yes you are a far braver man than I as i sit typing this crying quietly to myself."
ReplyWorst Cracked article in existence and will forever be the worst Cracked article because this s****y moderated website refuses to do anything about it despite everybody knowing how un-funny the article is. Instead of reading me b***h about it, go read it for yourself.

Damnit, I'm a professor. I'm "that guy" who'll post underneath you if you've spelled 'they're' wrong. I've been in denial for such a long time...
ReplyI dunno if this counts as a troll, but you're also that guy on the internet who brags about something and disquises it as "anti-complimenting" himself.
You spelled "disguise" wrong, sir

ReplyThis topic page was good until you left out grammar nazis.
Reply Hide All See All 4 RepliesThe professor is basically a grammar nazi. Only difference is that a professor "tries" to sound helpful while grammar nazis just act like dicks.
Then grammar nazis are Critics.
Nickb you forgot the comma after helpful. You should have finished high school... Just kidding!
Grammar Nazis are basically the gay love child of The Professor and The Critic.

The GOP facebook page attempted to ignore my trolling and I got their ass put in a sling. It shut down their photo sharing and had newspaper and magazine articles written about it. I did it 4 teh lulz (:D)
ReplyYou know.... I hate the GOP. I never thought to just troll their Facebook page. Huh.... It's the simple solutions that always work out best.
