Claire -do you reckon it's like wasps? when you kill one it gives off pheremones that attract other wasps hell-bent on avenging their fallen comrade.do you think it works the same with banned trolls?

hope you're not being outrophobic.it's highly offensive to dismiss them as simply intros that are going in the other direction -going out is just as normal as going in.how dare you suggest that intros are normal and outros are some sort of freakish troll-like mutants who.......etc etc.(
ad infinitum ;ad nauseum)

I didn't think of Rosalie as a troll, more an over earnest young lady trying a bit too hard.

Depends if trolling is a civil offence or not.
If it is, then intent is irrelevant

OK, assumption. Although I was clearly stating an opinion, not putting something forward as fact. Or something...
