Greetings, brave souls of Warmane,

I am Akazia, Blood Elf Paladin of Lordaeron, and I’ve faced many foes—some in battlegrounds, others in forums. Today, let’s talk about a different kind of enemy: Internet trolls.

1. How to Spot a Troll
Trolls don’t seek discussion—they seek reaction.
They:
- Say offensive or absurd things to provoke you
- Twist words or insult you personally
- Keep pushing long after the topic’s done
----> Their goal is emotional control, not dialogue!

2. Don’t Let Them Win
- Stay calm. Responding emotionally only fuels them.
- Don’t argue. You’re not in a real debate.
- Use your tools. Report, mute, walk away.
----> Remember: Silence is stronger than any insult.

3. Why Trolls Troll
- Trolls act out of frustration and emptiness.
- They hurt others to escape their own sense of powerlessness. Their behavior reveals more about them than about you.
- Trolls thrive on your reaction. Don’t give it to them. Hold your dignity, stay centered, and walk in the Light.

Don’t let broken people pull you down to their level. You are better than that. You are here to enjoy the game, to fight honorably, and to grow stronger—not to waste your time with someone whose only victory is making you feel something negative.

For the Sin’dorei,
Akazia of Lordaeron
