8 Types Of Trolls You May Encounter On Social Media by olokeded: 9:21am On May 13, 2017 |
A troll is someone who posts inflammatory or off-topic messages on social media. These trolls take advantage of the social media freedom they have to do whatever they like which is usually in bad taste. They are attention seekers and if you are not careful, they will get under your skin. In order to help you identify these trolls, Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares some of the types of trolls you may encounter online. The best way to deal with them is to ignore them. The grammar police troll They are simply looking for mistakes to correct. They do not care if you knowingly or unknowingly made the mistake. They just want to call you out on your poor grammar. The best response? Correct the mistake and say thank you! The headline readers troll Sometimes the headline of a news story is different from the content of the story. For these trolls, they only read headlines without delving into the meat of the story. Hence, they react based on a headline without knowing the full story. The meme masters troll They use the correct meme to express sarcasm. You cannot help but laugh even though the meme is directed at you. The ITK troll The I Too Know Trolls are very knowledgeable. Instead of using it to educate, he uses it to intimidate others. He never shies away from showing off his knowledge whenever he can. The clap back troll This is called trolling the troll. If you troll them, they have the perfect reply that will turn the table around. You will end up being embarrassed. The chief abuser troll If you check their comments, tweets, and posts, it is replete with abuses. They can abuse for Africa. The everywhere troll They have taken trolling as a job. You find them on Instagram, twitter, Snap, and Facebook trolling, They are everywhere just waiting for you! The research troll They are official fact social media checker. If you make any claims, they will do research just to verify it. God help you if it is false. In other cases, if a celebrity re-wears a particular attire, they will finish you that you start wondering if they are monitoring you. http://www.metronaija.com/2017/05/8-types-of-trolls-you-may-encounter-on.html cc: lalasticlala mynd44 1 Like |
