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.
