IGNORE THEM!! Don't make blogs referring to them, it's giving them recognition, and that's all they want is your recognition!!

It isn't just this site that has trolls. They exist on every site and forum out there. It's a sad fact of life on the internet. As kaBOIng said, it's easy to attack people when you don't have to worry about your victims coming at you for revenge. I agree that we need to put up a united front, and not let them take control of GBT through our fear, or apathy. This article has some useful info on why people troll on the Net : http://www.dailylife.com.au/life-and-love/real-life/why-are-people-more-vicious-online-20120705-21j44.html and this TIME magazine article also is worth reading : http://healthland.time.com/2012/10/19/how-to-starve-the-trolls/

The problem with people like that, is that they think that what they do is perfectly acceptable because they are hiding behind a computer monitor and are completely anonymous.

Hi
I just posted a blog message about it. It is the same subject you refer?

YOU DON'T HAVE TO PUT UP WITH IT! As you're all aware, we have recently had an abusive episode from an internet troller. One important rule of safety in a community such as this is: stick together. If you ignore the person (sure, he'll keep posting crap on here) the person will discover that nobody is really taking any notice, and hopefully move on. Let's not give these trolls what they want... which is members leaving. Time to make a stand against internet abuse!
