24 June

A really stupid and pointless website.

In my days as a Managing Driector of a comapny that deals
with the World Wide Web I find some pritty stupid looking
stuff.

Sometimes it is outright pointless.

Today was a day that I
found such stupid and pointless content.

I was reading a blog that I like and the
author suggested that we the readers google the writers name.

I did
so.

What I found was a shocking waste of my bandwidth. The site is called
scamfraudalert. My first thaught was "what the hell is a scamfraud? Is it a fraudulant scam report or a scam
about fraud?

Perhaps a scamfraud is a person that makes up scams and trys
to get sympathy for themselves.

This seemed to be the case.

The
page I arrived at appeared to be a general and no specific name calling session
as might happen on any childish website. You know the kind - sites opperated by
imiture game designers or stuckup coders aged about 17 who think they are owed a
debt by every one (radik).

The site was a basic vBulletin (Version 3.5.4) forum
with no outstanding features and a simple bog-standard theme.

Well the
low down is this: some one wrote something that was harsh. It got deleated. It
got undeleated so an admin could have the pleasure of banning the author. Then
several posts got edited so that the thread I found made more sense if you read
it backwards (none).

Well not to judge the website by what one moderator
did I looked arround a bit. Thread count was low (bad sign) user turn over
seemed high (bad sign). Community seemed slight (bad sign) and the site had to
many forums in it fo the post count.

The topic seemed to be "let's
talk about the crap we get in our in boxes that any sane person deleates on
sight."

Who cares if you have just seen a new version fo the
advanced fee fraud or a fresh varient on fake rolex, cheaps drugs or low cost
loans.

Grow up.

I did a DNS search on the domain and my worst
fears were shown to be true. It was a silly one shot website that was run by an
American. Why do they let their citizens make the country look so bad?

It is safe to say that I did not sign
up.

Further searching found that this guy behind the pointless stupidity
was some jerk off called James Landrith.

Grow up kid.

I found his
blog and some unconvincing use of some bad pun SEO words in a cross posting
entry that he has clearly been pumping for search rank.

His site is
pritty well pumped with a Google Page Rank of 6 on the front page and 4 on the
page I found.

However I can inform the world that this guy is a one trick
pony. A total arse wipe of the worst kind a total sackless ameba with all the
brains God gave a sack of spuds.

You see in my time I have encountered
his ilk before.

They a usually males with a tiny manhood a small mind and
massive anger at the mediocer live they lead. The blog like somany other "angry
young man" blogs is full of nothing bad hate and rants that have no pattern save
the ranting itself.

We can all rant.

Look I'm doing it
now.

Easy, stupid and all he can manage.

James Landrith is clearly a low level monkey boy.

Now on to
more well thought out searching.

Let's treat the troll with
all the information he needs.

Now what this
dude has been doing and what I have just done at great length is called
TROLLING. I was "being a troll".

The number one rule of websites and
forums is "Thou Shalt Not Feed The Trolls".

Feeding the Trolls is
engaging with them. Answering back and sinking to thier level. (as I have done
with this post).

It is the easy mindless path and leads only to more
anger.

The troll feels enpowered when you react. They feel they have
control over you.

They feel they have control because they
do.

When you react to a troll they OWN you in that moment.

Ignore
the troll and they will get madder then dirt. They will rant and swear and get
themselves kicked out.

Eventually they will go looking for other mindless
souls.

This
forum shows an entry of Cross Site trolling.

This can be much harder
to cope with. In a cross site trolling you may not have the power to bring them
down.

Don't react. Remove their comments from your site and most of all
DO NOT go to thier site, not even to look.

If this is your first cross
site trolling it will probably make you feel very hot under the
collar.

My first Cross Site Trolling was for saying that "Spit Like This"
were a crap band and played a crap venue. I then went on to really lay into the
venue but the fans thaought I was laying into "Spitz".

Lesson learned
sometime later when my blog had no more readers.

If you are involved in a
troll war (now you are both at it) do this. Make a short post and heartfeltedly
appologise to your readers. Confess that you have felt hurt and that you acted
in a childish way. Tell them sorry for bringing them into you arguemnt and then
say "the whole issue is stupid and talking about it shows the talker is stupid
too. That's the last word ont he subject."

After a while the other troll
will be exploding with anger that they can not get a reaction. They will rant
and scream and burn themselves out and all the while people will see that you
have drawn a line under it.

Yes a little mud might stick, but any one who
matters will be able to look for themselves.

So stop right now, clime up
to that moral high ground and be above it all. This is the way you
"win".

The other option is to loose all your readers.

Now I might
have had fun coming up with silly insults and showing I know who to use both the
DNS system and the star and hash keys but that is because I'm not in a troll
war. I'm not in the fight just commenting on it.

In the same way let your
loyle readers defend you without being asked and without you ever saying
anything.

Turn that other cheak, as it were. Show the world that the
Troll you are suffering from is a total whinning lo-oo-ser.

By the way
only 20% of results on page one of Google were negative about Rose. (I assume
you all knew I was talking about that trolling didn't you?)

In fact I
figure with a little help we could make that 0%. (Link to 10 possitive Rose
DesRochers topic pages, each person who does so increases the odds that the
possitive page ranks best. SEO 101).

Thanks for reading this wondering
post and good luck with your trolls.

Correction Matt, ScamFraudAlert is not owned by James
Landrith. ScamFraudAlert is owned by some old guy whose online alias is
scambuster-(scrub) who is a moderator at scam.com

Your post has me
laughing my butt off.
Ps: Thank you for your advice and your friendship.
