A very well-written one-line poem. It is usually the ones who chose not to use their name on the internet seems to be the worst cyber bullies you can get, because no one knows who they are.

Excellent use of an old word for a modern application. Indeed, Internet allows anonymity on a large scale. This is on of the most original entries for this contest. Good luck, my friend. Brilliant.
Warmly, rd

This is actually very insightful, Craig. It is certainly timely but, more importantly, every word is truthful. How funny if you should win with a sentence based around an obsolete word. Best of luck on this one. It's good.

I'm hoping that, in this fairy tale world of FanStory, not all of the handsome princes are frogs and not all the beautiful princesses are trolls in disguise! However, one never knows these days.

    Oh, I didn't particularly have FanStory in mind, Tony... but now that you mention it...

    Many thanks,

Ah, very good. Those -nym words are very useful. Unfortunately, so much nasty internet interactions have happened because of people being hostile under the guise of anonymity.

    'Tis, unfortunately, all too true. People have died because of trolling, it's no small matter. Many thanks, Helen.

LOL, so true that some folks present a totally different, and much braver face behind the anonymity of a computer than in face to face interactions. In my view the personalities should match up, yes?

Great job with a fine entry into this most difficult contest.

Lots of luck to you with the Contest Committee. :)

Gloria

    Thanks so much, Gloria. I had a lot of trouble getting the rhymes to work, but hopefully no one will notice :)

    Cheers, Craig
