Author Topic: How to deal with a troll: A simple step program  (Read 2493 times)

Recently, there's been some issues with trolls targeting easy prey (easy prey ex: ._maxwell23461_., Alyx Vance, Lamebro1). The problem is that it seems to have a recurring problem.

A troll starts trolling, and those who are expected to do stupid things do...stupid things.

Before I get ahead of myself, here's two threads where trolls are trolling people.

You can learn a lot about trolls in these two threads.

Here's some pointers
1: Trolls will say anything to get anyone mad
LOL. Anyone see this kid? Trying to insult the Greatest.

2: Trolls cannot be reasoned with
uh,thats HUMOR?god,what happened?

3: They're doing this for the attention and their own personal entertainment
4: Responding to their trolling attempts is feeding them.

5: If you didn't know you were feeding a troll, do not play it off as if you were feeding the troll for your own entertainment.
I get what you're saying, Tony feeds off of attention, and giving him attention is letting him win, correct?

Well, it shouldn't matter if he "wins" or not. He's some random friend on the internet. He can't do anything.

Let us have our fun.

Now, for the "simple step program"

Step one: Do not respond to the troll
Step two: If the post the troll posted is reportable, report it
Step three: Don't tell the troll that you reported him
Step four: Don't make a second, third or sixth drama topic on the troll
Step five: Don't make a steam hate group about the troll
Step six: Move on

And that's it

If you find yourself having difficulties with a troll, you might as well be driving around with a handicap sticker on your car.

Another golden thread from the mind of IketheGeneric.

Bah, Lord tony got banned for the third time so he's not a problem. CoolKoopaTroopa and Albe are the worst right now.


Alyx, Maxwell, And Lamebro1 aren't trolls. Alyx is a redneck and Lamebro's the sarcasm police.

You do realize Lizzy's quote is old-ish and was most likely used as an example, right?

Not any more.
I'm not a troll either.

I said they're easy prey. They're too stupid to realize somebody is trolling, therefore they say stupid stuff

I never leave a fight without winning, oh wait I already won.How?A weapon of loss and bans.Since when do I have a bad reputation, well I used to, not anymore.
Its the Night Fox Necrophilia topic all over again...

I've known Frontrox for a while so I know good damn and well that he isn't a Necrophiliac. Frontrox likes to play around, he really does.
My thoughts exactly.


I DESPISE CoolKoopaTroopa.
ever since he stabbed me in the back, he turned into a handicap


Totally agree but not everyone is going to ignore a troll.
Good tutorial though.

especially alyx lol

Step four: Don't make a second, third or sixth drama topic on the troll
lolhypocrisy

lolhypocrisy

Even if it is hypocritical, does it make it any less correct?


Step one: Don't get angry/ignore your feelings.

Done.
