We have all seen them, if you haven't then you aren't on the internet right now. I don't care what you say theoretical person, if you haven't seen a troll then you aren't here.
Some respond to trolls in anger, some in witty banter, most ignore them and move on, in rare occasions some just act nice until the trolls go away. Have you had or seen any good troll encounters lately? Post in the comments if you have any good ones.
I had one just now, some strange individual who shall simply be known as 'Kait' on a different website tried to steal a jacobs ladder from someone's town, who shall be known as 'Tink'. Tink shut off the wireless before any harm could be done, warned other people, and asked for an apology. Kait responded with rage and calling everyone losers, not bothering to deny the accusations and instead defended her actions with the claim that 'everyone steals, dont be stupid.' When this shockingly did not work she resorted to a caps locks rant about god and hard times and it was like something else was controlling her, it has since been deleted by mods but the gist of it was "DEMONS MAKES ME STEAL VIRTUAL FLOWERS PLEASE FORGIVE ME EVEN THOUGH I'M CONTINUING BEING A JERK"
That doesn't sound any more sane in caps does it? Is it just me?
After spamming her rant and having it deleted three times she said her sad farewell and thanked the people who understood where she was coming from (I didn't see these theoretical people but if she says they exist, what reason do we have not to trust her?), and I commented that I would miss her, she responded saying she would be back tomorrow. Someone claimed there was a lot of sarcasm, I pointed out that I wasn't being sarcastic, I would miss her, for I hadn't stopped chuckling since the conversation had started. The mods have now taken away all evidence of this conversation but I shall cherish this memory forever.
