Hi Everyone
The member "Universal Angel" is trolling this forum. For a definition of this: -
In Internetterminology, a troll is someone who comes into an established community such as an online discussion forum, and posts inflammatory, rude, repetitive or offensive messages designed intentionally to annoy or antagonize the existing members or disrupt the flow of discussion, including the personal attack of calling others trolls. Often, trolls assume multiple aliases, or sock puppets.
For some reason, probably only known to themselves, these people find some kind of perverse pleasure by attempting to dominate a forum with a single issue, and generally attempting to upset it's members. Every on-line forum suffers these people from time to time, and we are no exception.
The line basically taken by this member is that she is a unique individual, who is so perfect in every word and deed, that she condisers herself to be classified as one of God's angels. An ego as large as that is fine, but the offensive part of this is her seemingly gloating at the prospect of most of the members on the forum (if not all) being sent to hell, for eternal torture, while she gleefully looks on.
I am personally not a qualified psychiatrist or psychologist, but I have some experience in the mental health field, and have formed some opinions as to why a person would think and behave in this way. Having said that, it is not within the scope of this forum to attempt to diagnose or attempt any form of treatment of such a member. Therefore the nature and content of the posts of this member will probably remain similiar in style and content.
There remains, as I see it, only these possible solutions to this trolling problem: -
1. Leave her to keep trolling as she has been doing
2. Edit/remove any posts on the current trolling subject line, and leave those (if any) on genuine pharmacy matters
3. Remove the member from the forum - ban user name and IP address from accessing the website
If anyone has any other ideas or opinions, then please let them be known.
Please cast your vote, so I know what the members who use this forum would like me to do.
