An Ode to the Troll         

 

Do not feed the troll

Starve him

The troll needs your replies

They are the necessary sustenance the troll seeks when he comes to the message board

 

Do not be angry with troll

Pity him

The troll needs your anger

He seeks fulfillment by provoking angry responses that bring joy to a life that is missing something

 

Do not attack the troll

Pray for him

The troll needs to be attacked

It validates him somehow.  Turn the other check and pray

 

Don’t try to understand the troll

Ignore him

He revels in his anonymity and the mystery that frustrates so many

He gains energy when you waste time speculating on what affiliations motivate him

 

Support the team

Support the coach

Constructively speak the truth in love to them when you feel led to do so

But do not feed the troll
