The Invasion of Trolls – By: Light

For the past few months on Sal’s Realm of RuneScape we have been getting a massive number of “trolls” signing up for only 1 purpose only, to annoy us. The trolls coming to disrupt us here at Sal’s Realm have been posting rude pictures and text along with spamming wherever they get the chance.

What is a troll you may ask? Urban Dictionary describes a troll as “one whom purposely and deliberately (that purpose usually being self-amusement) starts an argument in a manner that attacks others on a public message board without in any way listening to the arguments proposed by his or her peers.”

So what can be done to stop this “invasion” of trolls coming to the forums? <Admin’s name>, a Forum Administrator says <what the admin says about the topic in question>. We regular forumers at Sal’s Realm can help this invasion by reporting all suspicious members to Forum Staff.

In that example, for the 3rd paragraph I would have asked a Forum admin about the topic in question, as this is just an example I didn't think it was necessary to do that.

Hey Light! Or Se7en. Do you know who I am? Good luck getting in.
Noverca
No I don't know you but you are somehow on my MSN list. Hai there!

Quite a small article, however grammar and spelling in it is strong and consistent.
Will mull over your application, PM me if there's nothing else from me in 24 hours. Thanks.

Are you the guy who impersonated you-know-who on our forums? tongue.gif

Anyway, I do like your article, the way you write, and your proper grammar and spelling. Though, it's a bit short, and I think that Dragons777dr would be the better person to write this, being someone who has trolled and being so annoyed by trolls. tongue.gif

Good luck, although I'd work a bit more on the article, adding a paragraph or two. happy.gif

I like the way you write, however you need a little more than that to impress me. smile.gif
I'm quite scared that you might be one of these who gets accepted, then never actually helps out.

Get another longer example up and i shall decide again smile.gif

I hae something rather large planned for my first article if I get accepted. Mrcsupertrain said it would be interesting to see. The reason this isn't long is because I didn't really find it necessary to write a 3 page essay or anything for an article that wouldn't be published.

Sometimes first impressions count the most. For example:

1. go in to an interview with a suit and tie on OR Come in wearing baggy jeans and a t shirt.
I would just like to see more from you, because i don't have enough to judge the work.
Jamster
3 pages? We expect at least 6.
You seem a fine writer, just hope you won't forget about us.
Accepted, welcome aboard smile.gif
Youhei
Hehe on the post above and the part that is slashed away.
Macki
Congrats on entering Light. You'll soon get your permission mask to our castle. hug.gif

And good luck on the project. I know what it is. aware.gif
