DONT make those idiots "trolls"
Those idiots who insulted and made this community go to shit in just a day, dont call them "trolls"
Difference:
Trolls = You make fun of something, be irritating BUT say sorry after if the person was hurt.
Cyber Bulling = Insult people and make fun of them in the internet.
Imagine those people who bullied was infront of us. They will call after their mom lol..
Know the difference. I dont mean to say anything bad, but this is a bit important. Real trolling is a big part (and fun part) of the internet. Making them look like bullies aint right.
Peace out.

You're really going to blame the whole FotDL family?
Because that's silly! Half of US had nothing to do with it, but still we're getting hated.
precisely, the people who made Jennifer run away doesn't even deserve to be called trolls
Calm down, I am not trying to insult anybody.. I'm just saying the difference.. Sorry for misunderstanding.
I've never ever seen a "Troll" apologizing for his/her behavior, just saying.

Well I have.. Normal people will do that. Some dude made fun of my profil picture on facebook. I got a little mad, and he remove it and said sorry. BTW he was a propper troller with a facebook site over 100k likes.
We got it. Now let it go.
Oh shit, I'm sorry for misunderstanding!
Well, I've always separated trolls from others based on sincerity. People who give controversial (or even asshole) but honest opinions, aren't trolls (either legitimate posters giving an unpopular opinion, or in some cases legitimately assholes). People who say things just to get people riled up are trolls. Even people who are getting people worked up in an innocuous and playful way are still trolls, just the fun kind. Though I will say, especially in the case of the former, being a troll and being an asshole are not mutually exclusive.
Did you just take your first foray into the wilderness of the web? Trolls never apologize and cyberbullying is a bollocks term because it cheapens actual bullying. Oh dear, someone's ''abusing'' you on the internet, so fucking get off it and get over it.
At least cyberterrorism is an actual threat, cyberbullying is about as threatening as a puppy.
Gustav is right, mate, you can't blame an entire group of people when less than half of them really did the crime.
Its still not okay to do nothing, if you were online and on the thread while it happens and didnt stick up for Jennifer while they bullied her that makes you a hurtful bystander but at the same time you dont deserved to be blamed by a ton of users.
I wasn't there! I was at school. I only saw that it was merged, then shit hit the fan after, I couldn't have done anything.

Again, INSULTING people is Cyberbulling. MAKING fun of things with out meaing to hurt anybody IS not cyberbuling. If you mean something else, its ok, its your opinion.. I dont blame you.
"Troller"? Is trolling a job now? Damn, I'm getting old, and I'm only 26.
I have no words that could possibly explain how fucking confused and angry I am at you right now.
Epic double post.
Okay, i didnt memorize all the usernames so i dont know who was online and who wasnt. Then you do have nothing to do with it, im sorry if you felt i was accusing you,
You said I was awesome...
You realize that people earn over 5000$ pr month for trolling?? 9GAG example earns alot. So yeah, its a "job"
It's no problem, I ain't mad. They crossed the line, and I feel bad that I wasn't there.
Don't get me wrong, I think the FotDL crowd handled several things poorly, but that being said it's time to let the arguments rest.
Discussion about Jennifer leaving is allowed as long as both sides are respectful and don't argue. However, lashing out at Jennifer for merging threads or lashing out at the FotDL for bullying Jennifer both result in arguments which make the situation even more tense than it currently is. We're all going through a rough time, and we need to fix this - together as a community.
You said that as if it was our plan to purposefully drive Jennifer away.
wtf do you mean?
Insulting people isn't cyberbullying anymore than calling a person a stupid-arse bollock bastard to their face is bullying. If that was the case, a friend and me bullied each other constantly in high school.
and you are, the people i don't like is the people who made Jennifer run away, I'm not hating on all the lounge of the dead members, only the shitty ones
Let it go...
Let it go...
People just won't let this goooooo....
Let it go...
Let it go...
For fuck's sake let's just let it gooooooooooooo~
aggreed
Sorry for off topic but what is FotDl?
You said we made Jennifer run away. Like we did that on purpose and it was our plan to do so. And that we don't deserve to be called trolls?
What?
Why would we want to be called trolls?
I was in the Lounge as this was happening. I stood up for Jennifer while she was being berated by a user. Still, though, it seems like people are generalizing the entire Lounge, and saying that we're all assholes for what happened to Jen. I do not know if it's directed at me personally, but I do take offense to it, as I had actually tried to help Jennifer and did not agree with the user who was harassing her.
Forum of the Dead Lounge, it was a community off-topic thread over in Forum Games for about 3-4 months before it was merged with two other off-topic threads.
What now? You earn money by being an insufferable butthole? I mean, yeah, if you're called Pewdiepie, it is possible, but just by surfing/using 9GAG? Are you sure about that?
Forum of the Dead Lounge. The people that harassed Jennifer were from that thread. They don't represent everyone from that thread and I'm not grouping everyone from that thread together, but... yeah, that being said, everyone who was mad at Jennifer came from that group.

You just said we don't deserve to be called trolls. You just changed your statement.
