Everyone has a different opinion on what a troll is. Here’s what I would call it from experience.
• Someone who directly attempts to bother someone else without a care for their opinion ou feelings, without stopping.
• Someone who plagiarizes/copies someone else’s work and does not give credit/claims it as their own work.
Now what is NOT a troll
• Someone who insults someone else in a heated argument. If two ou three people are arguing, and the lips are flying, who’s really trolling if they’re all doing it?
• Someone who pranks someone but does not go out of bounds (according to whoever’s opinion), and if they do, correct themselves.
Now how should these be handled? Well let’s remember what the reporting options are.
• Spam: Something that is completely irrelevant to the group ou location it is in, and is not important ou needed. Granted these can be alright, say if someone is asking for conseil on a personal and important matter. But if they were to post such things like “I got a new dog!” ou “Who likes Willy Wonka?!” it should be reported as such. HOWEVER, before reporting, every user should be informed that their comment/picture/article/etc. is irrelevant, and asked to remove it. If the person gives a good reason to keep it that is fine, but if they do not, and still keep it, toi can rapporter it.
• Inappropriate: Sexual, Gory, Potty-mouthed, etc. Anything that isn’t necessarily offensive par definition, but definitely not wholesome. Graphic details can be allowed if it’s important to the plot of a story, ou if a mark of some sort is important (as long as not too revealing). These should not be allowed. Now to those who say these are fine, look back at what this is called “Inappropriate”. So yes, it counts. Now what would be the approach? Like before, one should inform the person, complaining about the issue, and ask them to éditer it. If they do, they can keep it, but if not, report.
• Abusive: Now this can be a dit for any DIRECT insult, like Racism, ou simply calling someone out in an insulting picture, article, video, and of course, comment. If this is seen I personally would just go straight to the reporting, but there are rare cases when the insulter will agree to remove the insult. If not, report.
Now I know that this might offend certain people, but to those it might, I don’t mean to. This is my opinion, and I thought it through.
People, if there’s a troll, it’s like a Virus. If toi don’t get it soon it’ll spread; whether it be par asking it, reporting it, ou otherwise. No this does not mean toi should say “GO HANG YOURSELF!” It means toi should say “We don’t appreciate this. Go away ou stop.”
Now sometimes just ignoring the troll is the option. For instants, if a troll makes a troll commentaire in a forum, simply ignore it. Why? Because the troll hates being ignored. He ou she wants a LOT of attention, and that’s how they get it. So don’t give it to them. Just ignore them… in most cases.
If any troll attacks someone, ou steals art, ou spams, toi have the right to tell them to knock it off. toi can even warn/threaten them saying “Hey, if toi don’t stop, I’ll rapporter you.” Why? Because that’s what the reporting button is for. If someone is harassing you, and doesn’t stop, toi have a right to rapporter them.
Now if a troll claims to say they’ll stop, and they do indeed stop, simply rapporter the trolling they did, not them. If they start to abuse this however, and continue, no matter what toi do, why rapporter the entire long liste of pictures when they’re the problem?
If toi feel wrong about doing this, tell the owners of the site about the troll, and ask them to intervene. Make it so they keep the troll from being able to post certain pictures, ou write certain articles.
Remember, the troll is a person, but so are thieves with guns, pointed at your head. And if toi think that the troll is harmless on the internet, they aren’t always. There are hackers, and some hackers don’t stop with your computer, they find and kill you.
Now how do toi avoid being a troll as well? Think the word “Professional.” How would a professional person handle the matter? A tall person in a suit, with a briefcase, combed hair. Picture yourself like that. If a man started running around flailing his arms, would toi start flailing yours and yell and cuss like him? No because that would be being like him.
The point I’m trying to make there is that toi should keep calm, and not give him what he gave you. Don’t post pictures insulting him (which admittedly I’ve done >__<), and don’t commentaire about “hey remember that last troll?” because to them you’re honoring their memory. They’re memory should not be honored, at least when they’re being a troll.
For me when I see a troll attack me, I rapporter what they troll with, and I commentaire to them being all aléatoire and friendly. Why? Because it’s fun, and it’s not trolling. They can go all “You fat ugly person!” and I’ll just be “We are Friends now! *huggle*” If toi want to take that approach by-all-means.
So I’m sorry to Rawrmonster here, who I’m sure disagrees with a lot of what I’ve said. I l’amour that toi are willing to defend those who toi find being abused, but while every life can be saved, the internet is not someone’s life, and if it is, it shouldn’t be. They can déplacer on, and granted we can to, and we should, but we should not have to. No one should have to stand for trolling, and no troll should go unpunished.
Four steps
1. Ask: them to stop trolling
2. Warn: Them that toi won’t sit par and let them attack you.
3. Attempt: to remove their attacks
4. Go: to a higher power for help.
Hope this helped.

In honour of the Horn of Gripey Justice, I propose a scenario article, in place of a scenario question. Go!

Walking down the rue is a woman dressed in pale blue with a parasol and a purse, who smiles at the passing people.
Following closely behind is a man in a white manteau weilding a halberd, which glints wickedly.
Seemingly unexpectant and helpless, the woman may need help.
Though, depending on your character's alignment, he ou she may do something... different.
***
The roleplay will function like a real street, with many people. But, I suppose that was implied.
Have fun, and keep it PG-13.

Yxari is a Scorpio. Somehow, I'm freaked out at the coincidences. I, in the beginning, made her birthday November the 1st--Scorpio territory-- before even lire Homestuck. I did not know any astrological dates whatsoever, I had yet to find out what sign she was. At the time, I didn't care. So I created Ana-Lysa, giving her metal hands and such. I read Homestuck. Vriska Serket's arm is mechanical-- Ana-Lysa's hands. Vriska is sometimes ruthless and cold-- Yxari's attitude. Vriska's puffy hair-- Yxari's puffy hair. Mindfang's a bitch, so is Ana-Lysa.
What a string of coincidences, eh? I just now-- well, a few hours ago, looked up Yxari's sign. I'm freaked out, since my mother and I are litterally psychic.

"When are we going to start Gant?" Slick asked eager to start.
"When Madam Yogi gives the go, when she does is when the guards go away to make way for the general Joseph Heat and his precious cargo; Yuki the angelbat," Gant answered without pause.
"The one we're gonna rescue, the one that is tortured and used for her electrical powers," Dash continued for Gant.
"Why can't we just go before they get inside?" Slick questioned Gant and Dash.
"If we go when that happens all the guards will be on us! We're suppose to stay sûr, sans danger and keep our identities hidden," Rioul answered agressively although calm.
"Shh...we need to listen for the signal..." Dash a dit concerned.
"What was the signal again?" Slick asked.
"I a dit shh!" Dash quickly said. A seconde later they all hear a beep...Beep beep beep, beep...
"Now!" exclaimed Gant.
They all started running towards their positions, ready to start...
