Hey, I'm new to this community. Name's Viv =)

I read a few pages back and I don't think anyone's posted anything about this little critter. Apologies if they have! Personally I'm a bit squeemish with spiders but I can't stop staring at this little guy, he's simply facinating! "Recently discovered..." read just over a year ago.

They're not nice and inviting to jerks, dear. Or people who fail to read the rules. Rules keep things nice and manageable.

I posted something, and I wasn't yelled at. Surprise, surprise.

If you don't like the community, though, then by all means, leave. It's not like we're forcing you to stay here.

that still doesnt make much sense, so trolling is posts that get deleted?

A troll is someone who "trawls" the internat, blogs and such, and posts the same comment over and over. Or they do huge, uncut posts that have no relevance to the community.

They thus get deleted. From life.

Or Encyclopedia Dramatica. Which, whilst a lot of asshattery, in matters of the interwebz can often be much more informative.

and they also like togo into communities supporting something and bash that particular something to get people riled up.

No, but you have commented in some of the newbie fail posts and have basically been acting like a sourpuss cause someone said something kinda mean on here.

Everyone who has been here for a while is in kind of a pissy mood due to the spotlight and the comm being "hip and popular" now, and thus automatically flooded with bad posts, people who get offended easy, reposts, and trolls.

So either relax and just enjoy the wtf'ery or go join a comm like or baby animals or something more warm and fuzzy...

but it's LJ, so no matter where you go there is going to be drama.

I've been here for about a year and we're all very nice. It just gets wicked frustrating when people don't read the rules or the tags and we have posts of the same exact thing over and over.
