Disappointed by some trolls here

So there are Trolls here also...

Whilst I appreciate that not everyone here is a troll and some people are just looking or providing advice there seems to be an unhealthy attitude in some people.

I suppose the measure of any response would be “would you say that to your parent that way” or “would you say that face to face”.

The measure of your vitriol is the mirror with which you see yourself and an attempt to hide your inner pain.

We are all just a human family but the screen, keyboard and relative anonymity here tends to breed an unhealthy environment.

I urge you to see the actual person behind the words, even if you disagree with the person I urge you to try a middle way.

Free yourself, find recovery, heal and start living life more abundant than you can even imagine.

This is my first and last post as I have moved on.

Umm. Ok. If you’ve moved on, what did you want from your thread then? Confused

Oh dear....

Battleax · 06/12/2017 14:50

Cripes.

SparklyMagpie · 06/12/2017 14:51

Are you one of these trolls OP?

SlartyFarkBarstard · 06/12/2017 14:52

Ok.

Is this a motivational quote for the day

Yes, we need better quality trolls.

MNHQ, how are you recruiting them? I think you need to look at the wording in your trollery job offers.

JollyWankers · 06/12/2017 15:18

Aye nae botherConfused

Ahhahahahhahahha!

@CoteDAzur, get with the omm! Throw off your shackles of cynicism! Smile the world a little better!

paxillin · 06/12/2017 15:37

But back to OP, you are new to MN. You had a goo look around, didn't like it. Fair enough, there are other sites.

Do you do that when you have a trial evening at a book club? Walk into a pub, look around, realise not your crowd, do you announce it's shit before leaving?

I tend to just make my apologies and leave when coming across a group I don't like much.

Is this a motivational quote for the day

I've got it as a decal on my living room wall. Forget Live, Laugh, Love.

Truly, truly inspirational.

Walk into a pub, look around, realise not your crowd, do you announce it's shit before leaving?

To be fair, I think she’d be a bit more verbose than that. More something along the lines of

*it is more humanly powerful to recognise the dismalness of this hostelry and move with freedom and alacrity to your own home, where love and warmth abounds” before she bolted out the pub door. Grin

by troll do you mean people whose opinions you dont like

Only the unfree, unenlightened. Earth beings.

titchy · 06/12/2017 15:47

I assumed you were expecting our trolls to have naice ham from your OP

HoneyDragon · 06/12/2017 15:47

Pax you’re still a total bellend, right?

paxillin · 06/12/2017 15:50

Yep.

HoneyDragon · 06/12/2017 15:51

Cool

EdmundCleverClogs · 06/12/2017 15:52

This must be a record flounce by MN standards!

Please come back, op. As a general sarcastic arsehole, your hippy-dippy, ‘I run a special mindfulness course’, quotes need to be daily or they just won’t get through the deep-set bitterness that is me as a poster.

paxillin · 06/12/2017 15:56

I notice MNHQ haven't been to defend the quality of their trolls. Poor OP has been waiting for over an hour!
