Hey folks! How’s life? Hope y’all are doing good 😊

I’ve been wanting to share a MyTake for quite a while now, but I was not sure of which topic to choose from. But well, thank goodness, I was able to pick one.

Now, back to the topic at hand. What exactly do I mean by the title? Who are the troublemakers of G@G? Hint: it’s one word and they live under a bridge. TROLLS!

Yeah.. not this kind. I’m talking about the human kind

The little joys of being on G@G includes encountering a few trolls every now and then. I joined G@G when I was going through a really tough time in my life around 6 months ago. I was a newbie and I was exploring G@G. It was fun, and really addictive. This site was too good to be true.. until.. BOOM enter a handful of trolls! I was baffled by the number of trolls and pedophiles on this site. Goodness me, it honestly hit me like a ton of fucking bricks! But alas, I was too addicted to leave this site, and I was lucky enough make some really good friends who always have my back.

Now, let’s delve a little deeper into this topic.

What do these “troublemakers” want?

It’s simple. They want your attention. Yes, you read it right. Such a simple thing as attention. They’re using you. They want you get all riled up and argue with them. Me, being a newbie on G@G, I didn’t know that and fought with plenty of these trolls. Over the course of time, I’ve found that they are manipulative, obsessive and highly calculated. If you give them your attention, they stick to you like a leech. Remember, they are ALWAYS observing you. It’s important that you be really careful and do not reveal any personal information about yourself whenever you’re answering questions.

I wish they come with a warning label like this one

There are a few more points that I want to cover. I’ve noticed that, many of them have some sort of a “sob story.” It is nothing but a facade. They want to gain your sympathy. They prey on your weaknesses. I know that all this is a little dark, but I feel like you should know this. Whenever these trolls make any controversial or rude remarks, IGNORE, BLOCK AND REPORT. They will try to get personal. Heck, I have even gotten death threats on here, but pay them no mind. Or maybe tag any Moderator who is active. Do not feed these “troublemakers”. You can also identify them when someone’s account is private when they are only at XPER 1 or 2. Isn’t it a little suspicious? Of course, I’m not saying that everyone whose accounts are private and are in XPER 1 or 2 are trolls, but just be careful and look out for them. Most of these trolls start out as “normal” and end up trolling at least one person within a week or two. Most of them have been on here for a long time on and off(their accounts get nuked by Mods often) but they keep coming back.

IGNORE THOSE LOSERS!

Sometimes they may also create a fake account, try to befriend you, ask you invasive questions, gather information and use it against you. Please beware of people who ask you invasive or strange questions on G@G through DMs. You NEED NOT give anyone any personal information whatsoever. If you feel like anyone is harassing you, please report them to the Mods and block them as soon as possible.
BLOCK! BLOCK! BLOCK!
BLOCK! BLOCK! BLOCK!
Even if you feel like losing your mind when these “troublemakers” get on your nerves, remember, you are better than this. It’s a lost battle. DO NOT LET THEM WIN. Ignore them. Do not answer troll questions. I do realize that most of you already know this, but I am dying of boredom and just wanted to write something, lol.

I will write another MyTake on the “Cheaters and Fakers” part soon. Stay tuned, G@Gers!

NOTE: Constructive criticism is highly appreciated. However, I do NOT tolerate rude people. If you are going to be rude, kindly please don’t waste my time and yours by reading this. Or commenting. Thanks
