I haven't updated this thread in a while...most of the main facts about trolls have already been covered, and going forward when I update this thread it will mostly be examples of trolling that I find around the internet...and I start todays post with a very nice personal message that I received from member Skylla.
First off I would like to congratulate her on her successful reconciliation with her husband as well as the move to her new place.
Its all good though......we have learned to communicate with each other.....and we did that on our own.
Now, if he tries to "troll" me, I have learned how to troll him back.....and I learned that from you.
He even seems quite amused with me sometimes with the come backs I give him.
When he was leaving me all those threatening, harrassing messages...........he was trolling me, trying to get a reaction out of me, it worked.......but not anymore.
You never realized it, but your Troll School actually helped me out here in the real world......thanks Wizer.
Skylla, you are quite welcome, and thanks again for the kind words and the feedback.
The point here is that trolling isn't just an "internet thing". Trollng occurs in real life, with real people, with real situations. Becoming a successful troll hunter, and knowing how to deal effectively with trolls here on the internet can also be very beneficial in real life applications.
Such as in this case with Skylla and her husband, who realizes that now she is a force to be reckoned with. Good luck and best wishes to both of you.
