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.

The thread title suggests that there are some troll's you're not disappointed by.
Excellent news. You're finding the beauty in the darkness; the pearl amongst the grit.

Your optimism and spirit is a soothing balm to our grazed soul.

OP seems to think the definition of a troll is 'anyone who isn't 100% sweetness and light at all times'. That's pretty much all of humanity then.

I bet sunshine tastes lemony.

I’d prefer a jar of moonshine thanks.

paxillin · 06/12/2017 16:08

It's too early for drinking, sadly. Would be against the roolz and probably the talk guidelines, too.

It depends how inflexible you are about time zones.

JollyWankers · 06/12/2017 16:15

It's always happy hour somewhere!

GerdaLovesLili · 06/12/2017 16:20

Yes, me too HoneyDragon, sunshine was definitely a typo. (hic)

Goldenbug · 06/12/2017 16:51

I miss whoever the OP was sooooo much! Sad

I hope she's turned from a sad and tortured Mumsnet caterpillar into a beautiful butterfly with rocket powered backpack and is blasting across Southern France to the tune of Ace Of Spades by Motorhead.

PanPanPanPing · 06/12/2017 17:01

I think the OP has joined one of those weird cults.

paxillin · 06/12/2017 17:14

We all have now, @PanPanPanPing. There's moonshine and tambourines.

PanPanPanPing · 06/12/2017 17:17

I know!!

Lots of us have tried, believe me, we've tried to understand village life, we really have 😂😂. Anyone for a Christmastide Carol around the piano?

paxillin · 06/12/2017 17:21

There are a few actual persons behind the words I'm glad I can't see.

EvilDoctorBallerinaRoastDuck · 06/12/2017 17:29

Well, this thread's making me laugh anyway! Xmas Grin

See, I don't see it as a flounce, more a descending from Olympus, shaking her head over us poor cynical mortals and ascending on a cloud to the lofty heights. Thank you op. I for one will stop being a cynical old bat and try and look for the good in all posters. 👼🏼 Bless you for showing me the errors of my ways.

paxillin · 06/12/2017 17:40

I'm kinda confused as to why they posted at all.

Some of the trolls on here are crap. Some of the trolls are good. Easy fix: recruit better trolls.

MyBeloved · 06/12/2017 17:41

Wow. I feel spiritually enlightened.
