Title: Being Trolled
Post by: Sourgummies on August 19, 2015, 11:23:20 PM
Ran into a issue with a account and believe it is a alt account by some one that has a issue with me for some reason or another.
He suddenly starts posting in my thread and pretty much only my thread and will log out after he has had a go at me.
Have not seen him post in any other thread but this one.
Granted its a touchy subject and I realized a lot of people do not read thread through or have a poor grasp at reading. Lesson learned but what are the steps for dealing with a troll?

Here is what I have done.
Asked him to stay on point.
Asked him to be civil or stop posting in the thread
Requested him to send me a pm if he has a personal issue with me to deal out of the forum
Blocked and sent him a pm stating so
As well as reporting his posts

Now I am new to this and the only feedback I get is 100% accuracy but nothing comes of the posts I report.

What are the next steps,do I leave a comment on his trust with a link to the thread?

it sounds to me if you talk about peoples sex lives
point1 your not getting any sex
point2 you are gay yourself and scared to come out
point3 you are a religious nut

what difference to your life if 2 consenting adults shag each other
when your mum and dad shagged each other did my life become any better or humanity become any better
ANSWER NO
so even if your straight what good did your mum and dad do by fucking each other

Discussing topics is one way for us to grow or draw lines,depending on what you are searching for
don.t you get it why discuss about how you drink water..
your making it a problem to even say sexuality..
lets all talk about how i eat my dinner..yes we had this with ed miliband instead of talking about real problems..
why have people got gozzy eyes
why have people got ginger hair it sounds stupid to talk about well the same goes for sexuality..
SEXUALITY does not mean rape or violence totally different topics

army uses rape and violence to scare there enemy so its political and social
army does not send all the gays in to bum every one so it not sexuality
 or send the army in so the transgenders can turn there enemy into women
see how stupid you are
your discussing a problem that is not a problem your making it one..
to talk about rape and violence that is a problem because that effects every one straight or gay ..

why people got big teeth

This guy was off topic and you can see the following posters would presume that I was homophobic which I won't even get into.
I am all for up dialogue but this is not a discussion when you start throwing insults around.

So what are my steps in the future?

Tell me to get a thicker skin,all good. Just want to know steps in the future.

trolls troll to elicit a response, which in this case they have clearly succeeded in doing so. just put them in your ignore list and look the other way.

Ignore the troll and you will go away. One thing you have to remember is anything can happen on this forum; you have to treat it no different than real life. Ignore the person and eventually they will give up and go away.

There are a lot of people with strong opinions and dare I say that we also have some people with borderline mental disorder here. The one most effective thing you can do is to self-moderate your topics. This way you can keep anything you don't like away from your topics.

Moderators have said that they won't remove trolling mostly because it's hard to tell if someone is trolling or not. When trolling become outright abuse and spam though, you're free to report it and it's very likely that the offenders will be banned and/or have some posts deleted.

i think the users are banned if the trolling either constantly derails the thread's topic or becomes outright mindless spam. idk, its hard to draw the line when trolling becomes the reason for a ban, and i dont know how the mods decide its right to do so.

There are rules about spamming as well. Posting a lot of low-quality content over a small period of time often results in a ban and even a perma ban if the user keeps going.

But you're right about it being hard to draw the line between trolling and when someone's serious. It's easy to lose the respect of the community and be ignored though.

Wow, what a freak. Just ignore it buddy, put them on ignore or report their spamming / non constructive posts. No point replying to them as that's what trolls want. They want you to get angry & bite back, I guess that's what makes them tick in their sad, pathetic existence ;D

Just ignore them. Trolls only want a response. They'll soon get bored otherwise.

Sometimes. Others are professional trolls.

Depends on how patient you are; I've never heard of a troll trolling someone for more than an year.

i thought you were not allowed to troll and you would get banned if you did so, at least consistently

You don't need to do anything dramatic at all, just put him on ignore and if he tries to spam you to get your attention the mods will end up banning him.
