@daphne loves derby - Masakit sa mata ang puro smileys. You may use another tactics in trolling. :rolleyes:

 

Seriously, I'm warning you.

 

sorry mam ha. pero kayo lang po ata ang nagrereklamo, yung mga sinasagot at nirereplyan ko sa thread hindi naman.

I dont want to be rude po but there is a reason kaya anjan yang mga smileys na yan para gamitin di po ba? bakit po sa ibang thread at sections yung iba andaming smileys din mag post? tapos pag dito sa PECE bawal???

 

di po ba kasama sa rules ang bawal mapikon? sabi nga ni sir alex corvis the best way to beat a troll is to ignore. wala po akong natatanggap na warning sa mods or sa mga may ari ng MTC until now regarding smileys usage. kayo lang po ata ang apektado mam??

 

parang may naaamoy tuloy akong sumbong ah.. :rolleyes: :D

 

anyways. will do. I will try to moderate my smileys

 

i sincerely apologize for any discomfort i may have given you

For anyone who does NOT know what troll means:

 

A troll is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into an emotional response, or of otherwise disrupting normal, on-topic discussion,often for the troll's amusement.

There are several types of internet trolls.

 

 

1 The insult troll

 

The insult troll is a pure hater, plain and simple. And they don't even really have to have a reason to hate or insult someone. These types of trolls will often pick on everyone and anyone -- calling them names, accusing them of certain things, doing anything they can to get a negative emotional response from them -- just because they can. In many cases, this type of trolling can become so severe that it can lead to or be considered a serious form of cyberbullying.

 

2 The persistent debate troll

 

This type of troll loves a good argument. They can take a great, thoroughly researched and fact-based piece of content, and come at it from all opposing discussion angles to challenge its message. They believe they're right, and everyone else is wrong. You'll often also find them leaving long threads or arguments with other commenters in community comment sections, and they're always determined to have the last word -- continuing to comment until that other user gives up.

 

3 The grammar and spellcheck troll

 

 

You know this type of troll. They're the people who always have to tell other users that they have misspelled words and grammar mistakes. Even when they do it by simply commenting with the corrected word behind an asterisk symbol, it's pretty much never a welcomed comment to any discussion. Some of them even use a commenter's spelling and grammar mistakes as an excuse to insult them.

 

4 The forever offended troll

 

When controversial topics are discussed online, they're bound to offend someone. That's normal. But then there are the types of trolls who can take a piece of content -- often times it's a joke, a parody or something sarcastic -- and turn on the digital waterworks. They're experts at taking humorous pieces of content and turning them into an argument by playing the victim. People really do get upset by some of the strangest things said and done online.

 

 

5 The show-off, know-it-all or blabbermouth troll

 

A close relative to the persistent debate troll, the show-off or blabbermouth troll is a person who doesn't necessarily like to participate in arguments but does love to share his opinion in extreme detail, even spreading rumors and secrets in some cases. Think of that one family member or friend you know who just loves to hear his own voice. That's the Internet equivalent of the show-off or know-it-all or blabbermouth troll. They love to have long discussions and write lots of paragraphs about whatever they know, whether anyone reads it or not.

 

 

6 The profanity and all-caps troll

 

Unlike some of the more intelligent trolls like the debate troll, the grammar troll and the blabbermouth troll, the profanity and all-caps troll is the guy who has nothing really of value to add to the discussion, spewing only F-bombs and other curse words with his caps lock button left on. In many cases, these types of trolls are just bored kids looking for something to do without needing to put too much thought or effort into anything. On the other side of the screen, they're often harmless.

 

 

7 The one word only troll

 

There's always that one contributor to a Facebook status update, a forum thread, and Instagram photo, a Tumblr post or any other form of social posting who just says "lol" or "what" or "k" or "yes" or "no." They're certainly far from the worst type of troll you meet online, but when a serious or detailed topic is being discussed, their one-word replies are just a nuisance to all who are trying add value and follow the discussion.

 

 

8 The exaggeration troll

 

Exaggeration trolls can sometimes be a combination of know-it-alls, the offended and even debate trolls. They know how to take any topic or problem and completely blow it out of proportion. Some of them actually try to do it to be funny, and sometimes they succeed, while others do it just to be annoying. They rarely ever contribute any real value to a discussion and often bring up problems and issues that may arguably be unrelated to what's being discussed.

 

 

9 The off topic troll

 

It's pretty hard not to hate that guy who posts something completely off topic in any type of social community discussion. It can be even worse when that person succeeds in shifting the topic and everyone ends up talking about whatever irrelevant thing that he posted. You see it all the time online -- in the comments of Facebook posts, in threaded YouTube comments, on Twitter and literally anywhere there're active discussions happening.

 

 

10 The greedy spammer troll

 

Last but not least, there's the dreaded spammer troll. This it the troll who truly could not care less about your post or discussion and is only posting to benefit himself. He wants you to check out his page, buy from his link, use his coupon code or download his free ebook. These trolls also include all those users you see littering discussions on Twitter and Instagram and every other social network with "follow me!!!" posts.

Reposting.

 

Typical offense:

 

Flaming is a hostile and insulting interaction between Internet users, often involving the use of profanity. It can also be the swapping of insults back and forth or with many groups teaming up on a single victim.

 

Flame trolling is the posting of a provocative or offensive message, known as "flamebait",[15] to a public Internet discussion group, such as a forum, newsgroup or mailing list, with the intent of provoking an angry response (a "flame") or argument.

 

A flame war results when multiple users engage in provocative responses to an original post—while the original post is usually flamebait, this is not always the case. Flame wars often draw in many users (including those trying to defuse the flame war) and can overshadow regular forum discussion if left unchecked.

 

"Taking the bait" or "feeding the troll" refers to someone who responds to the original message regardless of whether they are aware the original message was intended to provoke a response. Often when someone takes the bait, others will point this out to them with the acronym "YHBT", which is short for "You have been trolled", or reply with "don't feed the trolls".

I was enjoying the posts in the Marawi thread.

 

When can we have it back?

 

Yes, of course. I just finished creating the Boston Celtics thread from the other sub-forum. It's a replacement from the old one since it would just take a herculean job for the moderator to restore from its original state. Unless an option of flagging the violators permanently would have chosen. I won't do that naman.

 

So, in the Marawi Thread, I will need to take each affected post be moved to another thread so the other members can continue to post there.
