How do you know your virtual friend is a troll?








The Internet is an interesting place, but not so confidential and safe. Many people here come to satisfy their own interests, and needs, and to take advantage of someone.

Every woman gets a tone of friend's requests, it doesn't matter how old is she, is pretty or popular. So, if men are chasing you on the internet, don't be pretentious and don't feel special.

Trolls don't have a big standard. They chase all women and pick those who are naive.



How do you know your virtual friend is a troll?

I will help you with a few tips, based on my experience.

Look at his profile and his behavior in the first days since you added him.

Then, answer these questions:

Does he like your every post?

Does he contact you privately?

He sent you messages even though you ignored him?

He talks to you in public and asks you to reply to him after you ignored him privately?

He sent naked women and filthy photos in your inbox?

He asks you for money?


If you answered YES on this question, you have a deal with trolls. 

Now, how to get rid of them?

It begins the day you added someone new to your social media. You give a chance to new people, you wish to hang out, promote your books, and get more likes. Whatever your motive is, you need a big friend list, because you need a community, and in this way, you are exposed. 

Luckily, you have helpers. The names of those helpers are: delete, restrict, and block. 

You can warn this new guy not to disturb you and hope you will get a nice answer. He might apologize and leave you alone. If he answers you how you are rude and your behavior is hurting him, block him immediately.

You don't hurt anyone because they added you. They chose to add you, to follow you and now they complain? 

There are expectations to see you naked or to annoy. They think you are hurting them by your rejection.

Now, it is time for simple medicine. Delete and block. Report. Publish in your status. On social media are groups where you can post a screenshot about trolls. Some people will have fun, and you will warn idiots.

Don't be merciful, they don't deserve this. They are not your friends, they are pests. The way you allow someone to treat you talks about you.

In this way, you will give alerts to people to understand you seriously.

Social media: how to react to negative comments?

The virtual world became a platform where people expose their frustrations. If you post something positive, you will not get reaction. Ignorance is mostly present when you express your happiness. If you post something that irritates people, you will get negative reactions. Many young users use internet to write negative comments, put dislikes and troll others. We are witnesses to young generation who is angry, passive and without a purpose. You Tube opted out dislikes for public. You can see in your private statistic a number of dislikes.  Some people have a bad humor and don't have a clue how their reaction can hurt others. You will tell me this is a freedom of speech and free choice, but also as an owner of my profiles in social media I have right to restrict negative comments. I am against censoring and dictatorship and every critic is welcome, but I don't tolerate rude and abusive behavior. Besides, if someone leave a negative, rude comment, that gives an ugly example to ot
