My Observations on the ToonTown Rewritten Community (2016-2019)
I make this known almost anywhere. I am a former greener/troll. I'm prepared for a bunch of downvotes and hate comments. I have been punished for my actions and no longer troll, however I did get a rather interesting view on what people in the ToonTown community were like. Let's say overall, it wasn't pretty. But here are a few types of people I met during my greening days. I would like to say that some people fall under multiple categories.
"Greener?"- I met these before my greening days, during and after. They immediate respond, "greener?" after you make one mistake. Even when I wasn't greening this happened. This is the most common type of person you'll meet.
Chill Toon - A good type of toon I met. Their response to being greened was just "lol we're being greened" and occasionally disconnect. Usually they just try to go with the flow of the battle. Overall these are pretty nice people who don't hold grudges.
"REPORTED!"- Somebody who waits to report you, says, "REPORTED!", then immediately disconnects. Overall just kinda of an annoyance that thinks they are, in the words of Coach Z, "SpEcIaL" because they reported you.
Newcomer - The guy who is just confused to what's going on. Not rude, not mean, just confused.
Hypocrite - Someone who complains about you breaking the rules as they by pass the chat filter to swear at you or attempt to green you.
Counter-Greener - Somebody who tries to convince the team to green the greener or do it themselves. Usually is also a Hypocrite.
Challenger - Someone who actually encourages the greener to do their best (which I guess is their worst) because they find avoiding being greened a fun challenge. I somewhat fall under this category.
Fake Challenger - Someone who pretends to be a Challenger but in reality is just trying to make the greener feel like they failed. The way to tell them apart is a fake Challenger will probably seriously taunt the greener as a true Challenger will probably just joke around.
"Is this your first time?" - Nice people who think you don't know what you're doing and try to teach you. If they realize you're greening they feel betrayed.
"I HAVE 10 MAXED TOONS" - Someone who tries to claim they're too good to be greened. Another quote they use is "I don't get hit in the final round."
"Ugh" - Those who complain about being greened. Another common type of toon.
Greener - Another greener who likes to join in. What fun! Most endangered type of toon.
Spammer - Spams rewards to live because they can't deal with one greener.
"I'm friends with Joey!" - Somebody who claims to be friends with somebody on the team so that you think you're gonna get in trouble. 99 out of 100 times they aren't.
Being a greener allowed me to see people's worst side. And as I said, it wasn't pretty. Of course this should be expected. However, there are some people who are nice. So a few things before I end this. The reason why I posted this is to encourage people to be more like a Chill Toon who doesn't care if somebody is messing around with them on a game, since I saw way to many mean people. And also, what types of people did I miss? Comment them. I want to feel like an idiot for missing them. Thank you for reading through this almost essay, and I'll see you in the comments.
EDITS from comments:
Overreactor - A person who thinks greening is a crime.
Anger - A person who would rather argue than pick a gag.
Victim - Somebody who pretends they've been through something awful when in reality they were just greened.
