   What is a Troll?

   Wikipedia defines a troll as "someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion"

   By this definition a Troll does not need to be a new 'fly by night' member of a forum but could also be a well established person. I dare say we have a Troll on this site who just goes on and on and on. This Troll seems to enjoy the excitement of calling out the word 'repost' just to see the reaction she can get.

   As much as we want the Troll to go away we keep feeding it. But then it demands to be fed! Because with every vid posted the Troll goes searching for decaying matter to feed on. And she searches until she finds it. She then screams out her feeding cry "repost repost repost" and we all start feeding her. There is the big smile from ear to ear as she dines on all the attention. All the while lurking and looking for the next meal, another repost. And such a glutton because there is never enough attention. The more she dines on the negativity the more she eats. Like a dog eating the prime rib until getting sick and then starting all over.

   How apropos this troll picks a flightless bird as her avatar.

   while i too find the mentions of reposts a bit annoying on occasion, i think it is in poor taste to single out an individual in this way.

   i have dealt with many trolls in the past, including a dangerous stalker who found out where i lived etc. and i must say, you are really stretching it by referring to this person as a troll. trust me, there are worse kinds of behaviours etc. in cyberspace than someone mentioning a "repost" on a regular basis. i say "so what", ignore it, move on to another post and be done with it. this person is not the only one to claim "repost" here and i feel she is being unfairly singled out.

   she was a wee bit, no wait, REALLY over the top about it and rather bitchy, when i first joined, but she has since toned it down.

   this is a ZIT WEBSITE folks, not the "huffington post" or "msnbc" or any other world/current event site, dealing with life altering changes with the economy, or the tragic loss of life during war.

   ...its about ZITS! nothing more, lets get some perspective here shall we?!

   This is her PM to me:

   PPM wrote: "You are so juvenile. Since you stay at home playing Mr. Mom, you just don't have anything else going on do you. You are pretty pathetic mister and I bet your face IS full of cysts."

   How is a person supposed to react? Chrisa, I am a warm and sensitive man. This troll calls me 'pathetic' and tries to attack my physical appearance without even knowing what I look like.

   omgosh! Warm and sensitive? I wish I had saved our conversation in the Shout Box where you said you said life was too short to let stuff go on like it had. We had a very nice conversation and I thought you HAD let stuff go. Apparently not.

   What are you attacking me about, CF? You call me a vulture, you show a game that has penguins meeting a bloody death, and you call me a Troll among other things. Are these not attacks on ME?

   As people tell me, if the vid is a repost then don't watch it. Well I say the same back. If you don't like my comments or posts, don't read them! Pretty simple!

   And I can care less if you post conversations between you and I. I have nothing to hide. It just shows your level of character and it shows that I am tired of being attacked by you for no reason.

   Muuuuhahahaha!!!

   I can't hold back on this one! Cystface, I admire your post and have nothing but sympathy for you when it comes to the toy dog/rat troll. Oooops, did I just say that? Hmmmm, don't think I feel bad about it.
   Caw caw, a crow flew over a Christmas tree and tried to poop on it. That would be the troll trying to crap on the party every day. Not that I am religious (not like certain fanatic birds that quoted the bible to me before! Scarry scarry!)
   love the forum post. Thanks that you are reading my mind.
   Squirt, squeezeit, or who ever some people want me to be.

    The picture is cute but it doesn't match to the individual. I would recommend an ugly shark with it's teeth hanging out.

    You are very nasty and mean squirt. I have never done anything to you. I am at a loss as to why you feel the need to comment so much.

    To your "personality" "squirt"... I have never done anything. Now if you happen to be someone else that shouldn't be here, then I might change that statement.

    Carol, I will be friendly to you but it is unfair for a member to ask for a thread not started by that member to be deleted. And it is my thread!!!

    I do understand your point of view, but this is a thread aimed at ONE member (namely me) that puts that member in a bad light. Do you want me to start one about you?

    I thought we were being friendly? Why are you attacking me PPM? If you want to start a topic about me go ahead because I have nothing to hide. I was just stating what I thought should be proper etiquette.

    Emil, if you want to remove this topic by all means go ahead.

    We are friendly. I'm NOT attacking you at all. I don't like what you wrote, but you are entitled to your opinion. I just think negative things like this shouldn't be part of the forum. You aren't the only poster on this thread. I know you started it and it did irk me and still does to some extent because it is directed solely toward me. It just opens up a can of worms for everyone to jump on to release hate and negativity.

    We are friendly... as far as I am concerned. You are smart, funny, and a real regular guy. Very likable.

    Merry Christmas and may your dinner come out above your expectations!
