idk how i feel about that one. that's pretty intense.
i think it's fine to just sweep the dust under the rug. they're just gonna come back with another account every time. eventually they get bored.
idk bro.
name censored was really starting to piss me off, and he singled me out first.
That whole situation is symbolic of why I can't stand these little "trolls" you find on message boards these days. They have no idea how to do it other than calling names and instigating verbal arguments amongst other people.
*tsk tsk*
That is
not how trolling was originally done, and... well.... I figure if you're gonna troll someone, you need to do that shit right. Again: fire with fire. Seriously, trolling is inherently malicious. What that Gamergate chick went through? OG trolling. SWATting a person's house? OG trolling. These days? You wanna "troll" than you make a fake online account and call someone a pussy twice before you log onto your original account to laugh at how some dude just called another dude a pussy.
It's devolved and, while less harmful now, these kids just.... don't.... get it.
There was only that one dude that really got under my skin, though. His problem? He made all of his personal information publicly attached to a unique characteristic of his usernames that he posted all over the internet. No bullshit, all I needed was to find a single piece of real-world information tied to his online persona and it was troll game over for him. (Amateur tip: don't associate your actual contact information with troll accounts, or even online period. The former makes you vulnerable in your task, and the latter makes you vulnerable to legitimate trolls and blackhats. Fake/old emails, no phone numbers, no addresses. Pretty simple, right? Unfortunately, simple people don't always understand simple matters.)
Yeah, sounds petty. Probably was. Mission accomplished, though, and that little fucker really came at me for no reason and managed to make me start to loathe CD for a period of time.
eventually they get bored.
Yeah, but I get bored too, though. I can't be the only one?
