(no subject)
so LJ has been lit up by some unfortunate incidents this past week
I wouldn't use the word "troll" to describe the little idiot that seems to be randomly adding people at will for some strange reason, but he/she/it CALLS themself that:
kingoftrolls and his/her/its cohorts really seem to be stirring up a bit of drama for them/itselves and I can't work out why (well, aside from the obvious, they have no life and nothing better to do with themselves option)
So, I read the journal of a couple of these silly little people. All in all, a couple of words were brought to mind that I will make sure that I whisper into the ears of those who are being hurt by these stupid peoples' posts slander and libel...because if these people are publically reposting private conversations and highlighting them so that things that you have said in what you believed to be a private setting and a "safe" environment are taken out of context...I am pretty sure that LJ has an abuse reporting system...also, it is important to note, that real names do not have to be in play for a libel claim to hold up in court, pet names and allusions that are strong enough to identify who the person that is being referred to is...a VERY strong case...
anyway...as far as I am concerned
kingoftrolls...if you want to read my mundane drivel, be it at your own free will, but my journal is mostly locked, and not all that interesting anyway...nice to meet you and all that (yes...well spotted, sarcasm folks!!). I am sure that you have already had this pointed out, but its usually polite to introduce yourself before adding someone willy nilly to your LJ list, but live and let live I say.
