I Hate Internet Trolls

Not as much as I used to but due to my history of being a former 'lulcow' (i'm Drmusic2), I just have had some awful experiences with people on forums, specifically ones that actually did turn out to be trolls and were part of a trolling website. You know Encyclopedia Dramatica, right? Well yeah, I was talked into joining that site/forum as I was told it was the only way to get my article removed.....oh boy, biggest mistake I ever made. That and taking those guys seriously. Yeah, I used to take that site seriously and thought that getting an article on there was essentially the end of the world for me, and it turns out I was just being a too melodramatic but still...after how I was treated on there I am still miffed about it. I mean even I think that a forum thread that goes past 200 pages is too much. And even some of the other members on that forum agree, and some of them actually did have the common sense to question it. Yeah, that's the thing...that whole thread only started because of one guy. One guy named Chris Marek who used a fake persona to fool me into earning his trust. And that persona was a woman named Andria. I loved the persona but hated the person behind her, the persona was well thought out and likable, the person made me want to call the authorities.

Why did he pose as a woman? I don't know. I can't even recall him saying why he chose this, he just randomly poses as women. His icons when they're not a mugshot or a logo or a stoner/drunkard (the guy in his IRL photo was one, I think that was in real life, or possibly one of his victims) were all female, he was totally in character and he had people believe he was a woman. It was like some sick delusional fantasy world where he or 'she' could no do wrong according to his 'followers'. There's a difference between trolling/a-logging and pretty much just going after someone because they exist. The latter is for no reason and is sad, especially if you're going after them or just trying to dig up any new information on them even if they've stopped being your pet 'lulcow' since then, the screencaps were depressing enough back when I was still being a popular target for their abusive comments, but now? Dude, it's over. Why are you still talking about it? Yes, I get it you're nostalgic for teh lulz, can we move on from this? I have, so why can't you? Yes, I am salty about it after all these years but I have a reason to be.

Now the whole thing to me just makes me feel glad that I don't have to put up with these people anymore, I am doing fine with my life and I am alright. Yes, I am still recovering from my father's death last year and everything, but I am nonetheless alright.
