Hello everyone!  I have been out of the gaming loop for a good 6 months or so but I shall be returning soon!  I'm sure I will have many new things to say and talk about.  I have truly missed gaming and blogging and having fun with my friends.  I have played a few new (to me) games since I blogged last like Gears of War 3.  I finished on casual and hardcore now onto insane and finding all the goodies and getting all the achievements. I also got Dishonored which let me just say is SO fun especially all the different ways there are to kill or incap people in the game!  I'm also finally working my way through Fallout!  I hope to be back on xbox live soon so I may have more lively interactions with gamers.  I hope everyone has had a wonderful set of holidays.  The L4D withdrawals are pretty bad miss my shotgun and zombies!

Attack of the Trolls

There is a creature known as the troll.  It roams the internet and various forms of online gaming.  It is seen outside very little because it rarely leaves its den.  It is most proliferous in habitats such as forums, social media and online gaming any outlet where it can post comments messages or speak through mic at people.  Although they exude confidence when communicating online it is a false confidence that no real repercussions will befall them.

The troll is a mysterious but simple creature it feeds on reactions evoked from its prey.  Trolls favorite food source is provoking rage in others and subsequently consuming it.  Because this behavior is somewhat predictable you can combat trolls by withholding their food source.  WARNING: trolls can be very dangerous if seen in the wild DO NOT punch them as this will be a very strong urge.  They will try to induce reactions but they are generally cowardly and will press charges if bitch slapped so control that urge to beat them to a pulp when they attempt to feed on you.

Trolls will use any and all perceived weaknesses against you from low self esteem issues to general insults.  They may use words like: fat, ugly, useless, stupid, dumb, scrub and noob.  Although trolls have varying intellects they may use more complex and interesting insults however the goal remains the same finding and exploiting its food sources.

Beware of the dangers of feeding trolls, it can result in extreme anger, rage, screaming, headaches, throwing things, punching things or people, rage quitting, and other negative results.  If you encounter a troll avoid interacting with it if at all possible and most importantly, do not feed the trolls because they will keep coming back for more.
