First Question

This blog is for me and my students to talk about the demons that can be found in cyberspace. They're demons because they are the nasties that are in this virtual world, with the intent of making other inhabitants unhappy - the ones that don't deserve it that is.

Which begs the first set of questions. Are there any people in cyberspace who actually deserve the attention of trolls, ogres, tyrants, monsters, fiends, brutes, beasts or any other wicked things. And if so, who decides?

  1. Those that want to behave badly as Trolls should set up their own site instead of bothering others.

    But what is the definition of a troll!

  12. I believe that if someone wishes to post blogs that are disrespectful, unsensitive, distasteful or blatantly ignorant, then yes - they do deserve the attention of 'trolls' and the like.
    As for who decides - no one does. Blogging is about free speech. Although this contradicts the previous sentence, people may feel strongly of their opinion and may not be deliberately opposing the blog. Therefore it's a matter of opinion.

  18. Nobody in cyberspace deserves the attention of trolls but it depends on what they write.

  19. Well if you post blogs about anything you have to realise that anyone in the world can read it and some people are going to feel strongly against it or find your post highly annoying, so if you can post it in why can't people post their opinion about it all though it is negative.

  20. I disagree with the above as he is proven to be a lier, as proven in the court case against him for macauley :/

  21. i dont't think no one deserve the attention of trolls at all.

  22. Trolls are annoying, but just ignore them

    ReplyDelete
  23. if they are expressing views which are discriminating or hurtful to anyone then they deserve negative responses from trolls. If they are simply expressing an opinion they do not deserve abuse from someone just because the opinion is not shared.

  24. Trolls are loners that want attention, just ignore them :D

    ReplyDelete
  25. trolls just dont have anything else better to do

    ReplyDelete
  26. I think in the same way like Coco Pops...
    They are usually trying to make angry other peoples. Just ignore them

    ReplyDelete
  27. I think trolls only do it because they get bored and want to annoy people. And that they have no one to talk to

    ReplyDelete
  28. Meh. Trolls only make other people miserable to compensate for their own miserable, crappy lifes.

    They should really be ignored, but who says it's not fun to wind trolls up eh? ;)

    ReplyDelete
  29. I think, they just want to make people feel angry.People should ignored them and continues their good work.Trolls, think they are wonderful, but they are not.

  31. trolls are people who just like to make hateful and nasty comments,they like to make people feel small and not confident.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Trolls are both pathetic and hilarious at the same time. I never understood why people troll over the internet. I just assumed that they're insecure, or have nothing to do. The best thing to do is to ignore them

    ReplyDelete
  33. i think trolls shouldnt be mean about someones opinion and let them have their own opinion, so just ignore the trolls.

    ReplyDelete

  37. i think that some people shouldn't deserve trolls if they are just getting on with their own business they don't need a troll because there not doing anything wrong, but some people who are been nasty to other deserve trolls,by saying nasty thing to other people they are just asking for trolls to disrupt their blog page with mean and nasty comments to see how they like it.

  49. Trolls are ever present, they are sometimes found in large groups such as the idiots from 4chan.. The best way is to avoid communication and hope they get bored and dissapear. Or if you're really smart, troll them back with more vindictive words. ;]
