Trolling 'victims' are idiots, not victims.


Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on... everyone?

Check out this story about Richard Bacon, a "trolling victim." And likely a closet homosexual, and an all-around fantastic brainwave flatliner.

Nowhere does it mention that in 2 years of being a "trolling victim" that he attempted to execute the simplest solution to being trolled: IGNORE IT!

Trolls feed on attention. Ignore them for a while, and they will fade away and eventually disappear because they latch on to new victims. Richard Bacon always responded, being the genetic marvel that he is. And now his little bastard son is available for an even wider audience to troll. If son is like father, we trolls can count on a lifetime of trolling fun for everyone. Until he kills himself, anyway.

It won't be the same, but if a few old timers like you repopulate it, maybe it will be...

I never gave up on the original mission of the site 12 years ago. Where I failed is the executive aspect of maintaining and growing the site. I think it's very important that virgins and young adults have a place to get trusted information about things they're about to do that could radically determine the course of their lives. And speaking of lives, lives is exactly what I'm talking about. That is very important because the lives of others indirectly affect the lives we lead, whether we want to admit it or not.

i agree.
even with everything else that went on there, it was a good place for those types of people to come, especially if they had thick skin at times.

I'll come back if you get SP up again, and help out any way I can (if you want).

The site's definitely coming back. It may be re-branded, though. I'll set up the old url to point to the new one if that happens. Part of my tax refund will be the new startup cash. I've also set up guidelines for success based on how I know I failed before.
