Hi guys, VG Here!
Just a friendly reminder that TROLL BEHAVIOR will NOT be tolerated on my page or on my works. Any Troll that comments on my posts or tries to leave shouts will be blocked WITHOUT warning and will be reported by me.
If I suspect you of Troll behavior, know YOU WILL be blocked and reported via a Trouble Ticket. If you are not a troll and are mistaken by me, have somebody Note me and I will remove the block on your account.
For those in Virtuegen Nation- if you suspect somebody of Trolling behavior, DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS. Trolls are looking for your attention and feed off of your reaction, and if it is bad enough, you can get banned off of here like Joey was with You-Know-Who. You know who you are. Responding with insults like "KYS a**hole" or "F**k you b***h" to a troll not only gives those guys what they want but can get you in trouble, and making death threats to a troll can get you suspended or even banned. Don't comment back, don't give them what they want, block them. Trolls are also sometimes anti-furries. Anti-furry Trolls bait you on places like Deviant Art or Instagram and are looking to get you into drama. If they sent death threats like "KYS furf*g" or send GIFs of flamethrowers and call you a "zoo", or "pedo" or etc, just block them.
Don't bother with them. Usually, if you ignore them, they will leave you alone and find somebody else to bother online. Also, SPECIAL NOTE: SOME TROLLS CAN USE BLOCK-EVADING SOFTWARE AND ALSO AVOID GETTING BANNED. These trolls are especially dangerous, and they keep coming back. While there might not be a direct way to stop ones that come back, rely on the community and your people to help you deal with him/her and also be aware of censorship, be aware of signs that show it might be the same person, and also inform your friends and fanbase. DO NOT let your friends fall for their bait, too! Also, DO NOT TAKE IT PERSONAL. They most likely do NOT know you, and they want to irritate people at RANDOM. If possible, if a site or platform allows you to censor profanity to a degree, use it. Also, use power to delete or hide comments.
Now, here is the thing. CRITCISM is not always TROLLING.
The ability to censor SHOULD NOT be abused by creators and also is a source of drama. So, evaluate whether or not somebody saying "ur art is trash lol" or "I don't like your art" is criticism or TROLLING. So, use that ability as a Internet user WISELY!
Thanks, and be safe out there, Virtuegen Nation!
