You need to have an avatar that's not an abomination (Tokyo Underground) to be considered seriously.


After listening to you for a while, you seem to be really sensitive to what other people say, stop that.


edit: You are 23?

[quote="Littledawg"]Is taunting said troll knowing they can't comment back part of the procedure?[/quote]

Y'know, I am like five seconds away from making our blocking system bidirectional, i.e. when you block somebody you can't comment on THEIR pages either. I just want to make clear that you DO NOT TELL SOMEBODY WHEN YOU HAVE BLOCKED THEM. They will discover this on their own.

THAT'LL TEACH YOU A LESSON

Meh, I'm just going to have to accept that. So. What kind of avatar I should have? A carebear?

And yes I'm 23. Am I too old for you?

You are 23 and you still care when people insult you over the internet?

Pfft, hell no. Do you think I care about what other people say about me? All I did was advise people to be careful of trolls and I gave my thoughts about how FAC could function a little better if we actually ward off trolls on our own. You're thoughts and opinions about me mean nothing.

I'll be honest, I haven't read pretty much a lick of this thread, but didn't you mention winning arguments with trolls or some shit?

That means you care.

The avatar has nothing to do with it.

Ryu_Warrior only wanted to share his method to making it easier when one is confronted with a flamer. There is no reason to stretch the topic off to his age, avatar, or whether he cares or not. Obviously he uses this method because he does care.

[quote]Pfft, hell no. Do you think I care about what other people say about me?[/quote]
^RW means that he does want to let people get under his skin easily. Understand?

[quote]You are 23 and you still care when people insult you over the internet?[/quote]
It does not matter what age you are. People can care about what others say to them on the Internet just as much as they would in real life. Words make an impact on you on the Internet just as much as in real life.

You're best chance IS to report to an admin or mod. Unlike some forums, the admins and mods actually CARE about what's going on. The IP deal is pretty useful too - if only they could get a list of proxy sites from programs, they could block every single proxy right now and not have to worry about it in the future. Or else, if someone is using a proxy, it performs a redirect, like the whole 'you're using an ad-blocker' deal.

personally i thinks the best way to deal with trolls is to just ignore them.
really to me trolls are only a big deal if YOU let them be,
(I mean do you really care what some 14 year old says about you. unless your a 14year old too)

I think RW's theory is a good one, when it works cause they are some VERY hard headed people out there that won't bite so easily at the bait. Trust me I should know. If they don't bite, that means they are either a hateful person OR an immature brat with nothing better to do.

I usually just roll my eyes and block idiotic comments when I get flamed. When I get FLAMED rather, as in "Ew your art sucks haha" Not when they give me constructive critisism which I like. Really I have better things to do than clean idiotic comments off my profile and art pictures. Thankfully though I have had none of these comments in ages, just one or two. One about pubic hair on my adolescent male OC made me rofl though. Really if you don't wanna see that. DON'T LOOK! I would rather they say something about my anatomy and color shading than just "eww pubic hair" xD
Plus I censor it too, I mean that's what the ratings are there for, not to just sit there and look pretty.

Well then, looks like some people think it's a good idea. But that's just what they think.

You be the judge about all this flaming stuff. I gave an idea or a method and people responded. I just want people to understand, that's all. And if you don't like it, that's fine. Say whatever you want. I don't like getting into unnecessary conflicts so as a pussyfis- er a pacifist as I am (well, you get the idea), getting me into an argument is just stupid and I'm just going to accept what you say about me, leave it behind, and move on.

I'm not going to dwell on this subject as much as I need to. I'll probably pitch in if I feel that I need to say something else.

I just ignore them. I figured they flamed so they could see our reaction and laugh at it. So I don't give them a reaction.

Just ignore them...Doing battle with a troll only fuels their fire...They thrive on bad vibes...If they don't receive any, they just forget about you and move on...

This might help;

If someone flames your profile page, click the [Block] button that appears on that flamer's comment, delete that message, and pretend the whole mess had never happened.

Trolls=giggles. I think what annoys me the most are the ones who have zero art in their galleries, yet think they are the next Android Jones and decide to [i]attempt[/i] criticizing you. Always fun--no proof from them, no progress from you.

Trolls are the by product of a womans bad decision and a tall glass of vodka, a lack of a father figure and nothing to do.
