That is interesting, Voltie, thanks for sharing. Particularly liked the point the guest commentator made about "you can cure cancer tomorrow and still 10-15% will come after you for putting oncologists, nurses, pharmaceutical companies out of business" It's so true it doesn't matter how great the thing you do for one person or group someone somewhere will take offense.

Ironic in a way. Last night on HBO's The Newsroom one of the characters proposed doing a story on Trolls.

watched a couple of the videos..... the one that stuck in my mind is one of the last ones..... the violentacrez guy.... often he comes across as a guy that doesn't really see a issue with what he did and how it affects people but he was quick to portray himself as a victim and talks about the effects and impact on his family because he was * outed * as a troll.... one part that stands out in my mind is where the commentator mentions about how the troll posted that if anybody wanted their pics removed, they only had to ask.... but there was no option to remove the pics anyway.... and the guy tried to turn it around to make himself into the victim cos of it......l

thankfully drew takes care of 99% of the trolls, those that are left, well the ignore button works well........
