FICTION
Why I Treat Trolls Differently
I said to Lobo/Curtis nay "PlatotheSmurf", "Attending your funeral would be the best medicine. I'd even bring roses! I'd toss grenades into you coffin, to make absolutely certain, but then toss roses. I'd cry real tears of pure joy too!" Harsh, right? But funny too...come on, it's funny. As it happens Lobo/curtis shut down her...his...who gives a crap? Got my wish, didn't get to toss grenades, but it shut down the site. It'll be back, probably before this post is complete.
We're talking about fiction. We're not talking about real human beings. Oh, there are beings behind the keyboards, but their online presence is, let's be honest, is less than humane, and is, in fact, trollish.
- They don't ever tell us who they are. When Curtis came along he called himself "Lobornlite", and presented a photo of a beautiful exotic model. Not an exotic male model, but female. So Curt you a beautiful female model trapped in a male body? I don't believe it. Lobo is a fiction. Now I'm not against fiction. I like fiction, but I don't like fiction paraded around as fact. Trolls are a fiction created to hide the person in front of the keyboard. No I don't care about the fiction.
- "Catfishing", "Trolling", "farming". Is it social networking or antisocial networking? Let's face it this isn't about building society, it's about deceiving society. If you can be whoever and whatever you want on line, then why not be someone else? Honestly this isn't real life. If I wanted to I couldn't give you who I truly am. There are some Xangans I want to meet in person, and I'm sure these folks are are as real as I try to be. Still there are things we don't know about each other, and there are thing we simply leave out. Social networking isn't truly done in front of a computer. I know this is the direction our society is going, but honestly we need to start looking for a place for jumping off the Facebook track. Get to know your neighbors if you can, and do social networking the old fashioned way. They're hiding stuff too, but if you keep pushing the relationship aspect you may learn what your neighbor really needs, and God can work through any willing old cracked pot.
- They don't follow the rules of common decency and polity. The trolls always change the rules to suit themselves, but continually give themselves a complete pass when it comes to treating others with any semblance of respect and equity. They will always demand that you must listen to your "better angels", but refuse to give you anything but troll vomit in return. They don't want a conversation they want to dominate, belittle, and manipulate anyone who comes along.
I block trolls, so I can't see when they comment me on someone else's comments page. I find them commenting me by accident. Since I never, under any circumstances, read troll vomit, and I never visit their sites, I have no clue what they say too or about me. I ignore what they say and say all kinds of nasty things about them, for daring to think they should be allowed to waste my time with their troll crap. The only way to control a control freak is to take away all their control, over you, at the very least. Take the troll out their control.
I'm sorry if anyone is offended by the way I treat trolls, but I don't treat fiction like fact. I'm not giving fiction the level of respect I give to my fellow human beings. And trolls are the lowest type of fake life forms, so it gets thrown in the trash, just like I threw away all the porn magazines when I became a follower of Christ. Like it or not that is my take on the matter, and I'm sticking to it.

He is. His new site is ImNotUglyIJustNeedLove.
@musterion99 - Yay! Little frog sounds the alarm!! I had actually written this before I saw this comment. You don't need to be a prophet to know the trolls always come back.
@Such_are_you - Also, when he was pretending to be Denise Paglia on his Loborn site, he claimed he was brutally raped. And he made fun of girls who were over weight. And he vulgarly mocked a woman on Xanga who breast fed her child. And he called me satan. And..........................
@musterion99 - Trolls gonna hate! I'm always surprised when people allow Curtis to keep vomiting on their comment pages.
@Such_are_you - I remember another one. He wrote a blog saying that Protestants are the same as atheists.
I can't let this one slip by either. Since you were avoiding him, you may not have even been aware that he opened another site where he pretended to be a WWII veteran. After every one knew it was him, he shut that one down too.
@musterion99 - No I did see that one, and was given the heads up that it was the creeping crud.
@Such_are_you - He's had so many sites, it's hard to remember them all. Did you know of the one where he pretended he was a high school kid?
@musterion99 - That one I missed, and I'm glad of it!
@Such_are_you - It was kind of funny that he was attempting to use all these opposite characters. The high school one he had a pic of a real clean cut looking teenage boy.
@musterion99 - I don't know what to think about such a...I don't even know what to call it.
@Such_are_you - I think it's obvious that he has some serious psychological problems.
I don't care for trolls either and you are right, the best way to deal with them is to ignore them, which is the opposite of what they are looking for. Good post.
@musterion99 - I know lots of people with psychological problems who don't act like him.
@alterb4ego - Thanks, now if we could get the rest of Xanga to stop feeding the trolls we'd have a very nice place to blog.
@Such_are_you - That's true.
On a platform like this one (Xanga) you have no reaosn to present yourself as anything more than a blogger. You do not need to put up a fake person and say this is me. When you put up the sexy picture and say this is me when its not you. Well I do not want to get into what that deception is all about, other than to say its not a good thing. Its not about presenting ideas on the internet. Its about deceit and its sexual
