I think I have my first ever troll
« on: March 08, 2010, 12:31:42 AM »
I think I know who it is - I have never had a problem with anyone but an ex member here.

I dont know what to do.  I could 'ignore' them but I am the type of person who would want to know what they are saying - as so far tonight they have commented on everyone of my comments, and in a derrogatory way.  Or am I being silly and reading too much into it.

http://forums.ebay.com.au/topic/Community-Spirit/Man-Charged-Over/600129992

Any 'nice' advice would be great - no point telling me not to discuss 'controversial subjects' cause I dont think I could stop myself

Hi Jane, I read the thread.  Yes your words were definately twisted and added to and there was comments after your posts, but not after others similiar.  I wonder who 'Dame Pearl' is.  I don't know what advice to give you.   I would imagine the comments would have been said to get under your skin so it is hard to decide to ignore, but if you keep responding you will get reported and maybe sent on a holiday to Ebali.

How does that work?

Trolls, Flamers and Bullies get to stay on the Boards,

and their targets/victims get the boot?

That's my experience on ebutt.

My advice: Get the hell outta there!

Finally got the thread read and..yes..your words are being twisted Mum..totally agree with Fluffy

   Somewhere there is a inference to who dame-pearl is...I just can't find it at the moment..it is someone who has been on the boards for a while  and  got a new id. I was reading the Thompson/venerable thread and it turned nasty so I got out of there so  thought the inference was there.

Can't you put her on ignore Mum..surely that would work..

Yep...that's the 'Troll' rules of engagement apparently...happens everywhere..!!!   ."Blame the Victim" is the 'End Game'......

The Troll always seems to get away with their devious undermining....because they hide behind forum ID's..or conceal their treachery altogether........but what kind of a person are they who deliberately target another person with malicious intent?  Hang on....isn't that a bit like a cyber psychopath?...(they're the ones you see coming) or perhaps a cyber Sociopath ? (those you don't see coming)

Gee Cupie.....Mums problem is just a bit of picking and word twisting, not that she is doing it, the other person I mean... :rofl:

Anyway..how you going?  Hope you have had enough rain to stop the threat of fires for the rest of the summer...............oops   :offtopic:

Hi Westie....I know the game....this is just how it starts...seems innocent until it escalates....and it always does....(I was speaking generally)

....and no apart from thunder storms in the past few weeks...our weather hasn't been wild like Melbourne yesterday....

It's Sunny here with a pleasant n/easter...

I wouldn't worry about it Mum. Dame was carrying on like an idiot & others on that thread will or have already seen her ridiculous comments for what they are.

At least one or two other posters have had a shot at Dame for her stupid posts directed at you.

Don't worry MandiMum...it's just one of the Stringer mob preening and fluffing their feathers trying to look good for their leader..lol

Even Imp tried to justify Dames words.....but you can't justify the unjustifiable.

I've heard there is a bit of dissention in the camp over there....so they are all vying for new places in the pecking order and they think that picking on anyone from here will gain them brownie points..lol

Rational posters knew exactly what is going on....and you handled it beautifully... ;D

And I know they will read this....so to all of them...I say....

Thanks for the support.  I was starting to worry that I had written something wrong, but I am glad others could see my words were twisted.

Makes you wonder why someone would take to point scoring on such a sad and serious thread.  I suppose some people will do anything for attention.

Nice to see you back Cupie - I missed you.

Hi Cue nice to see you :)

Mum it's hard to ignore when you get slandered, and you just know you should bite your tongue, but it does feel good to lash out sometimes, as long as the reply is thought out and hits the mark without you getting a slap !...LOL

It seems like someone who "got you wrong" from the start, and either deliberately or through inability to understand properly ended up twisting whatever you posted...

Sometimes people can break down their actual meaning into little nibble-sized chunks of information, to clarify a misunderstanding - but sometimes there is really no point, and it's best just to shrug and step back. I think in this case that seems to be indicated.

Thanks for all the support - I am not going to let it worry me anymore - the boards are full of trolls so it really was about time I got one for myself.  lol

I am just going to feel sorry for them instead, they obviously have a problem that has nothing to do with me.

Whenever life gets you down, Mrs. Brown
And things seem hard or tough
And Trolls are stupid, obnoxious or daft
And you feel that you've had quite enu-hu-hu-huuuuff

Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at 900 miles an hour
That's orbiting at 19 miles a second, so it's reckoned
A sun that is the source of all our power
The sun and you and me, and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at 40,000 miles an hour
Of the galaxy we call the Milky Way

Our galaxy itself contains 100 billion stars
It's 100,000 light-years side-to-side
It bulges in the middle, 16,000 light-years thick
But out by us it's just 3000 light-years wide
We're 30,000 light-years from galactic central point
We go round every 200 million years
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe

The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whiz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light you know
Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is
So remember, when you're feeling very trolled and insecure
How amazingly unlikely is your birth
And just pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space
Because there's bugga all down here on Earth


Just look at the Australian Political system...I rest my case...

Don't grumble give a whistle
    Am                                   D7
And this'll help things turn out for the best

    G      Em          Am     D7      G      Em    Am    D7
And always look on the bright side of life
   G   Em          Am    D7      G     Em    Am    D7
Always look on the light side of life

   Am               D              G                Em
If Trolls seem jolly rotten there's something you've forgotten
              Am                  D         G
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing. (give the finger)
            Am             D              G     Em
When you're feeling in the dumps don't be silly chumps
     Am                                       D7
Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing

    G      Em          Am     D7      G      Em    Am    D7
And always look on the bright side of life
           G   Em          Am    D7        G     Em    Am    D7
Come on always look on the bright side of life


     Am               D        G               Em
For life is quite absurd and death's the final word
         Am              D              G
you must always face the curtain with a bow
   Am             D              G          Em
Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin
  Am                                D7
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.

    G      Em          Am     D7      G      Em    Am    D7
So always look on the bright side of death
G      Em       Am           D7    G         Em    Am    D7
just before you draw your terminal breath

Am               D    G                Em
Life's a piece if shite when you look at it
Am                 D                   G
Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true
       Am             D
You'll see it's all a show
        G               Em
keep'em laughing as you go
       Am                               D7
just remember that the last laugh is on you

    G      Em          Am     D7      G     Em    Am    D7
And always look on the bright side of life
G      Em          Am    D7      G      Em    Am    D7

Ebay forums have always been the main breeding ground for vicious egocentrics who have nothing else in their lives except trying to be popular on a stupid forum.  

What a pathetic existence some of them must lead. :comfort:
