Quote:

An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who intentionally posts controversial or contrary messages in an on-line community such as an on-line discussion forum or group with the singular intention of baiting users into an argumentative response.

Oh My Goodness! I think I have been on a trolling spree. I've been posting on forums for a long time now and always I'd roll my eyes when I'd see a troll strolling by.... So it was a shock when I looked at my fingers and they were on the QWERTY keyboard like a damn troll hand... Keep in mind though that I was only doing what I like to call a "cause-effect" type of thing - not an intentional bashing of wits - but as a Woman - I think it's my perogative to be right and not have that challenged

OK - they say the 1st thing towards "cure" is admission.... So after that what comes next? Now - I'm not admitting that I'm a troll or anything absurd like that, becaue I'm not! I'm not a troll dammit LOL - but yeah - what would be the cure for my "friend" who IS an internet troll?

Jacquii.

fyi - I promise not to flame you, unless you call me a troll and tell me to admit it or some bit of insane crazyNESS with similar meaning....

And the 1st person who calls me a Flaming Troll - I will knock you over the head with a mini-keg of Heineken (( which btw is empty because I've drinkin it all ))

I don't think you are a troll, I think you had good reasons if I'm getting this right.

There is, however, a troll around here that does custom vb work, doesn't ever have anything nice to say, and participated on the "flame war" (was it really?) you had. I won't say names though.

Nooooo, Jacquii, you're definitely NOT a troll.

nah, you do not have to name me... everybody know who i am...

and actually, Jacquii is not a Troll... Drama Queen is the word to use on parenting/mothering websites...

You are right about the reason for this post - And I shall not name names either, as it seems like the TROLL culprit has taken the 1st step towards curing his most uglyNESS --- He's admitted the fact that he indeed is an ugh LOL

Oh WOW - I'd never have considered being a Drama Queen --- In fact I've actually customized a couple smilies for my Forum because I NEITHER LIKE, NOR DEAL IN CREATING DRAMA............................................. .....'Less I be flamed for no reason at all.

Sorry I read "mini-keg of Heineken" and completely lost track of whether we were talking about drama queens or trolls. Is it possible to be a trolling drama queen?

God alone knows I need an avatar

Maybe I'll work one out after getting a mini keg this evening on the way home from the pickle factory. :erm:
