trolls, detractors, flamers

how do you deal with internet trolls, flamers, detractors?

do u ignore them or u 'fight' with them?

sometimes i think it's best to just ignore them... the more you pay attention to them, the happier they are i think.

quite sick of these losers... Rolling Eyes Confused Wink

been ages Smile

anyway, here's my take on trolls Laughing

<Precious> SG

Is there a need to "deal" with them? The world comes with people of all shapes and sizes, colours and yes, characters..... Just as you expect people to allow you to be as you are, so must you allows others to be what they are..... Live and let live!

Kena detracted and/or flamed is all part of a very good training to be mentally stronger. Such enhanced mental strength will stand you in good stead in time to come. You are fortunate to receive such training only available to SgF peeps. You shud actually be thanking these detractors and flamers...........

Very Happy

Sometimes, some people just delights in making other people's lives hell, by saying bad things about them, and make things difficult for them. When u experience joy, they ask "Why so happy.", when you sad, they will delight and revel in ur pain.

All I can say is, ignore them. After I post something, I would seldom, if ever, reply to anyone or anything that I felt is attacking me. No point making them happy.

wat is detractor?

is it someone who often bumping up threads that lead to flame when the threads are suppose to die down? or causing dissow among two parties while he happily watching show?

Devil1976 SG

Ignore.

Although I have to admit that sometimes it's really difficult... Especially when you don't realise that they're even trolls and flamers to begin with...

There'll be things which might trigger you.. Like abusive words and how some shallow people might even buy their sh|t.... But yes. Ultimately no point wasting your time and life on such people.

Most times, these people are those that can insult you on the forum.

But will never dare to come up to your face to tell you so.

You have to understand that even known personalities on the forum can turn nasty, just because they think they can get away with it.

An alter ego issue, and egos issues are the reasons for the flamers, detractors & whatever you call it.

But deal with the persons, not the egos, and you will find yourself in another level of social interactions.

Which level you want to place yourself in? The same level as those so low? or somewhere higher, where you are looking down at these kinda creeps?

As precious mentioned. Its actually a mental training for yourself. If you can handle these kinda folks. You basically can handle far worst in real life then these creeps can.
