Well done Kassadee! I have always wanted to Troll around Home but seem to have a problem reaching an appropriate level of Troll-ness. With this guide I think I will have NO problem being a complete and total ass!

LOL. Well done again.

Interesting read. I just see it all as one huge giant psychologiocal problem, really. But in the end, this was a great read.

I understand what you are saying. I hope that who ever reads this wonderful article knows that it is making fun of trolling not promoting it. If someone really sees it as a “how to” them they were already heading down that dark road. I think we all agree that trolling is the cancer to our virtual lives. I hope we are all on the same page, just reading it at our own pace. I don’t think you are a troll and respect your opinion, just think the communication may not have been as graceful as they could have been. But that’s how I roll…lol

For those who have mistaken me I ain’t trolling but I was a victim of a such particular trolling maniac who went as far as to rally a group against me where I did nothing (it later got cleared up and I never saw that idiot again).

I personally visit PlayStation Home to relax and socialise but although Marie had written what she claimed for fun it may somewhat also serve as an encouragement for others to think it is okay to troll and in turn cause harm on innocent gamers like myself.

Maybe because I’m from Asia and we dun tolerate such behaviour or act them out but I sure as hell ain’t gonna be one!

Sad to say but Trolling has become it’s own art form….I personally caught the article’s Tongue in cheek tone and thoroughly enjoyed the read..To be Honest… The article not so much pokes fun at the sad commentary that is trolling…It pretty much gives trolls a taste of their own medicine in my humble Opinion!…GREAT READ KASSADEE!..

A troll is a troll is a troll enough said jayson may probably be one, that is why he is bashing on kassadee’s article which is btw a really good article I had fun reading it.

Welcome to the beautiful world of satire. Kassadee Marie wrote this article with tongue firmly and knowingly in cheek. I’ll affirm Olivia’s comment here: trolling isn’t new and it’s unlikely this won’t ‘recruit’ anyone that wasn’t already a troll.

HomeStation’s biggest criticism of Home, from the beginning, has been directed at the trolls who infest it. That’s what makes Kassadee Marie’s biting satire on the subject so enjoyable to read, because it’s a very pro-community, pro-Sony article.

Under normal circumstances, Jayson, your comment would have already been deleted, if for no other reason than the utterly ridiculous hyperbole you chose to use. However, just as it sometimes takes a grain of sand to make a pearl, so your comment may be used as an example of how not to respond.

There was trolling before this was written and I am sure that this didn’t recruit someone that wasn’t a troll already. This was sarcastic and sardonic and on the off chance it lured someone into being a troll then their limited IQ was leading them down that path anyway. If this was viewed as a real “how to” article then I have a book on how to make money off of fools… just send me $200 and I’ll send you the book…lol

I was going to say “Too funny” but it is too true and kinda sad but a great read and well done.

I’m not sure that any trolls read this magazine, but if they do I hope they get the point that you missed. Which is that they are likely to get as bad or even worse than they give… from others, and Sony.

Even if it is written out for fun knowing that it can cause very serious harm to others in many various ways not amounting to suicides and such as well as accusations than can result in huge financial lawsuits on the innocent party.

I may take it with 1/100th of a pint of salt but others will surely hunt you down for writing this for others to follow and make a living hell for the innocent.

A thumbs down read!

Yes, it was fun and the easiest article I’ve written, so far. It seemed to flow out of my mind straight to the computer. Thank you for your encouraging words.

That was a wonderfully sarcastic article Kassadee. It must have been fun writing it. The unfortunate part is all of it is true as well, there are many people (mostly bored kids) on Home who come there to take their life’s frustrations on strangers, at the cost of everyone they meet. Whenever I get a new person and they PM me, I tell them how to talk in public with the triangle button. Many times they just don’t know how and when they click on your name they see that convenient message button there. I hope they change that for us and make it so only friends can PM.
Great article as always! Keep up the good work.
