BlogPost 8 : Trolls Ruins Everything

Cyber world is our escape towards in real life dramas and stressful situations. The internet is full of citizens(netizens) and online community is fun because of different people all over the world can interact in said community but trolls are jeopardize the safe and friendly atmosphere of the internet community.

I read an article entitled, "Online trolls may ruin the Internet for everyone", by Clarence Page. This article means that people has been harassed frequently in the internet community by internet trolls.

According to Page, "I don't like to see restrictions on the freewheeling marketplace of ideas that the Internet provides. But, as in other realms, abusers can ruin the online world for everybody."

I agree on what Page said, because, yes, internet is free for all users and for free speech but trolls are abusing it and it can ruin for everyone who is using the internet.

I read another article entitled, "Trolls Are Ruining Science Journalism", by Rose Eveleth. This article states that trolls are useful on affecting people in the readers in the internet but it leads in misinformation.

According to Eveleth, "Science is no exception, and recent research shows that when it comes to science news, the trolls are winning."

I agree on Eveleth, because any subjects can be trolled, even politics,physics and literally anything. That's what the specialty of trolls, they can ruin everything and can make you believe in everything what they are saying.

BlogPost 7 : Trolling Affects.

Internet trolling is fun, some trolls you can ignore it and sometimes you don't, and sometimes it can devastate if the person take it too literally. Some people has humor and some don't. All person in the internet community has different taste, but what if the person took it literally, what are the effects of trolling on that person? In this post we will know what the effects of trolling.

I read an article entitled, "Online Trolling and the effects on Young People", by Wayne Denver. This article state that the trolling has a huge impact psychologically to the person who is getting trolled and many young people are being victims of internet trolling.

According to Denver, "Trolling is thoughtless, cruel, harmful and can lead to some serious consequences."

Well, I agree in what Denver said because if trolling exceeds onto the victim, it can lead to some serious psychological impact on the victim and it will leads to trauma, depression, and worst case scenario is suicide.

I read another article entitled, "Trolling And Online Bullying 'Affects One In Three'", by Felicity Morse. This article is about the consequences you will endure in the internet and why trolls are attacking simple young people in the internet online community.

According to Griffiths, "Young people need to understand the consequences that these comments can have, and it's important to teach them how to use social media correctly, to make the internet a safer and happier place."

I agree on what Griffiths said, teaching awareness is the best key for not getting trolled, if the people in online community are much aware on trolls they will be less victims by the trolls for sure and the internet will be safe ground to young people.

BlogPost 6 : Trolls For The Win

For the people who are habit is to use the internet everyday, well I'm most certainly that you have encountered an Internet Troll. They are literally dozens, in group, or even more. They are just everywhere, in games, social medias, forums and any other programs or stuff that has a community, because if there is a community for sure there is a troll among them and they are waiting for a stupid fish to catch once they reel you, they will definitely win.

I read an article entitled, "Why Trolls Always Win", by Kathy Sierra. This article is about whatever you do to the trolls whether you outsmarted or even if you ignore them, they will not stop until you give up. You can't outrun in their trolling since you're in online you are a big bait for them.

According to Sierra, "Simply moving on is not an option for the haters once you’ve been labeled a Koolaid server and/or a rich source of lulz. Ignore them, and the trolls cry harder, scream louder, and become destructive."

I both agree and disagree on what Sierra said because yes, I agree that trolls will make an effort if you ignore them, but ignoring them completely will make them stop. Moving on and ignore is the best solution for them.

I read another article entitled, "Web Trolls Winning as Incivility Increases", by Farhad Manjoo. This article states that if there is internet there will be always a troll in midst. No matter what, they will always be there, even if they are not winning they are still a lot more of them.

According to Phillips, "The faster that the whole media system goes, the more trolls have a foothold to stand on. They are perfectly calibrated to exploit the way media is disseminated these days.”

I agree on what Phillips said because whatever the system goes in the internet, trolls will find more ways to troll other person even if they make an effort out of it. Trolls are good on mocking other person in every way possible even if they are losing but still you take the bait, they always win.

BlogPost 5 : Trolling or Cyber-bullying?

In the increase of population of internet users, many of people are being active online. Many of us has a different taste when using the internet, some do it for good and some are just a scum and being an asshole on everyone in said community for example there are the trolls who is expert on flame wars and there is cyber-bullies who literally doesn't stop until their victims gives up. What are their difference? In this post I'll debunk what is the comparison and difference in them.

I read the article entitled, "Trolling or Cyberbullying? Or Both?", by Raychelle Cassada Lohmann. The short version of the article is they have similarities but they are not the same because the trolling is just for fun for the trolls and cyber-bullying is used to humiliate the victim until the person quits.

According to Lohmann, "The sole purpose of trolling is angering people and Cyber-bullying is deliberate and repeated harm inflicted through using the Internet"

I agree on what Lohmann said, because that is what the troll wants to only anger their victim and gain happiness out of it while Cyber-bullies just want to ruin the psychology of their victim and make it over and over again until it snaps.

I read another article entitled, "Difference Between a Troll & a Cyberbully", by Micah McDunnigan. The article proves that troll and cyber-bullies are different even though they are in the same concept but trolling is just trolling and cyber-bullying can hurt psychology if exceeds.

According to McDunnigan, "Trolls seek to rile online communities and attract attention to themselves, while cyber-bullies just want to use the Internet to hurt their victims."

I agree on what she said because the trolls are fun even if they are pain in the ass sometimes but what they do is art, they make the internet a fun place because of their humor and wit while the cyber-bullies is just a scum that doesn't belong in the internet.

BlogPost 4 : Trolling Unmasked.

Nowadays internet is a very important tool in our lives because it is easy to avail and our technology is more advance that is why people are easy to go online. Some people are using it for their jobs and stuffs but for some they just using the internet to troll online. Technically today, trolling is a trend in the internet where literally disrespect or to mock someone without any intentions in other words it is just random. My questions is why are some people are so mean and disrespectful online? For this post I will unmask the trolls of the internet.

I read the article entitled, "Troll Psychology: Why People Are So Mean on the Internet", by Amanda Gardner. This article means that with all of us has a freedom of speech and without physical interaction to the person you talk to, trolls can do whatever they want to say online and some trolls exceeds to the extent they become cyber-bullies.

According to Rego(Director of Psychology Training), “It’s no one’s fault per se but if we can recognize that we’re vulnerable to this, awareness can lead to change.”

Practically I agree on what Simon Rego said, because you can't get rid of the trolls who is online 24/7 and you can't blame or stop them for trolling you or any other people because that is what they are, the best way is to be aware and ignore them so you won't get trolled in other words just stop feeding them because being gullible is that's what they want and why they troll you in the first place.

I read another article entitled, "Why Is Everyone On The Internet So Angry?", by Kellie Foxx-Gonzalez. This summary of this article is that the entire internet population are at least did some trolling or being an asshole in online even if they are good or bad ones in real life but we can lessen cyber-bullying by our own self by helping others online.

According to Foxx-Gonzalez, "Let’s stop leveraging our power to hurt other people, and when the shit hits the fan, let’s try to be kind to those being hurt and offer words of support. When you see a marginalized group or person under attack, step up and help them."

I agree on what Foxx said, even we are only online all people on the internet is still one community, a person can help another person no matter what. That is the humane thing to do even in real life, helping other person even it is only in the internet it is a huge boost to the person you help with and it can reduce cyber-bullying in a huge amount.

BlogPost 3 : Debunking the Troll's mind.

The internet is useful nowadays others used it for games, research and stuff but for the Internet trolls they are using it for trolling. Well, trolling is a new internet sensation throughout the world wide web and you can see "trolls" in online games, Social medias and other forum base websites. I have many encounters with the Internet trolls, they are so witty and literally annoying and for others they are nightmare. So, what is their motive to do such thing?

I read the article, "Inside the Mind of an Internet Troll", by Kim Fischer. The article is about what are the mentality of an Internet troll and why they are trolling random strangers in the internet and what motivates them to do such thing.

According to Gillingham(Admitted Internet Troll),"The internet is just full of people with too much time on their hands or people who are looking for a reason to be upset at something and that's where I think I come in. These people are looking for a reason to be upset, and I will gladly give them one."

In other words the internet has many users they have what we called "own taste" and some person are too gullible what they are reading on the internet. I agree with Gillingham, internet has bunch of retards who is easily to deceive what they are reading, the best example is the satire news which is many people will believe and they have been trolled big time.

I read another article about this topic, "What is trolling, and why do we behave so differently online?", by Stephen Webster. The summary of this article is that in real life we have set of rules and norms that make us good person but on the internet there is no boundaries of set of rules and norms that we became a troll that literally can do anything online.

According to Webster, "Seeing other people behaving in the same way may help to normalise and maintain what is unpleasant behaviour - so it’s cognitive dissonance in action."

In other words Internet trolls tend to troll someone if their beliefs doesn't fit on the person they are trolling. Basically they troll you because you don't have the same point of view I agree what Webster said because I have encountered many trolls and what I have experienced is if they disagree with you they will keep pushing their views until you submit.
