BlogPost 2 : Troll or Should I say Trolls.

So you guys want to know about trolls of the internet?? well, let me give you some background what kinds of trolls lurking in the internet. So, what is an Internet Troll?



Well, literally someone who likes to troll a person who either intentionally or pointlessly yells and swears and insults someone with no or some purpose. They are usually spawned by arguments, disagreements, errors on grammar or just hatred. 

Base on my experience and observation about them is that trolls are literally all over the internet as in even in Online games, forums, community, bulletin boards, and specially on social-medias. 

Being a 9gagger(which I said in my last post) and a Internet addict slash gamer, just ignore the trolls and they will stop instantly. *I'd love to call it, "Stop feeding the trolls."* that's my only opinion to avoid them.

I read the article, "Internet trolls: a guide to the different flavours", by Claire Hardaker. The summary of the article is that trolls has a different kinds, a troll just having fun not really annoying but a little and there are the ones that is really pain in the ass that annoys you whether you like it or not.


According to Hardaker, "Perhaps the most disheartening aspect of my research is the general view – not just socially, but legally and politically too – of online misbehaviours and crimes."

The quotation said is that you will be demoralized when you deal in a lot of trolls for their trolling, it maybe fun but it is damaging for the sensitive ones, I do agree with the author but the internet is full of them and you will get trolled whether you like it or not and they will get away with it because it is the internet.

I read another article about this topic, "13 Types Of Troll You’ll Meet On The Internet", by Robin Edds. In other words article states that there is literally dozens maybe more of these Internet Trolls you will find across the Internet World Wide Web(WWW), and what characteristics do they have.



According to Edds, "The concept of trolling isn't necessarily wrong. Sometimes people say stupid things, and they deserve to be gently ribbed. Occasionally you’ll see someone write something you don’t agree with, and of course you have the right to reply. Keep your tongue in your cheek, don’t be cruel, and wonderful things can happen."

I agree on the quotation above said by Rob Edds, because you won't get trolled if your post is not literally stupid or doesn't make any sense. We control what we post and stuff we put in the internet so the risk is ours, and getting trolled means you have made some mistakes that has to be change, so for the future post you won't getting trolled by the troll.
