By I am a huge fan of Ricky Mayers. From his books and his videos to his blog, he is pretty much the best writer out there. His writing is so well-paced and his insights so thoughtful and profound it makes his blog worth reading. I can’t say that he is a great cook, but his recipes are always a must-have. And he is hilarious.
Ricky Mayers is a serial internet troll. One of his first posts was a post where he announced that he was going to start a blog and write about his favorite things, like food and movies. Within one day, his blog had over a million unique visitors.
He has since written more than a dozen posts with links to the various posts in his blog.
Most people don’t realize that Ricky Mayers is a prolific troll. He has been a top ranked commenter for years now, and recently became the top ranked troll. He often posts “top posts” and “top comments” lists on the posts he likes. You can get an idea of where he is ranking by doing a search on his blog.
Ricky Mayers has also become well known for posting “giftcards” to his blog readers. These gifts seem to be a form of payment for the number of views he gets from his readers. He also has a very active twitter account. Twitter was just recently added to the list of popular tools for newbies to use for self-promotion.
Ricky Mayers is probably the most famous example of a troll, but there are plenty of others. In fact, I’d argue that the word “troll” is in danger of becoming a meaningless buzzword as more and more people take it up. There are a lot of trolls, and they are very opinionated and opinionated people.
The fact that so many people are so willing to take the time to read a troll’s tweets is a good indication that they get the message. As long as it’s relevant to the topic and has a tone that isn’t offensive, that’s a win for all involved. The irony is that ricky mayers isn’t actually a troll. He is simply a well-meaning idiot who can’t seem to keep up with the times.
That’s the problem. People get ricky mayers because they don’t know any better. If the person is trying to be funny, they might get away with it, but as soon as they try to be serious, their jokes and opinions have a limit. They are not the ones who are offended.
Sometimes the people who are offended are people who just dont know better. Often, if we are in a conversation with someone who is trying to be funny, we might not realize that they are trolling. There are times when it becomes clear when we are being serious and we can just shut up and let the conversation go.
I think it is perfectly fine to be serious in conversation with a guy who is trying to be funny. If the guy is trying to be serious, we should be able to let the conversation go just as easily as if he was a total asshole. However, if the guy is trying to be funny but is not being serious, we should probably just ignore him and let the conversation go at that.
