vstar2001 0 #1 February 28, 2005 I was thinking about trolling the other day. Most would say it's wrong, but then I thought about it. Isn't any initial question/statement an attempt at trolling???? After all, you are throwing out a statement/question just to get a response... Unless, trolling is defined as making a statement that you know will not be received well? And yes, I percieve this poll as a form of "trolling"...I just am................ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I understand a troll to be someone who posts a controversial topic with the single purpose of provoking personal attacks against themselves or others, or a thread with no real interest in relavent discussion.

cameramonkey 0 #5 February 28, 2005 Just remember, before people spend too much time pointing all the blame at Trolls, remember without hothead regular users, they wouldnt exist. Wanna end the troll problem? Learn when to just say "NO" to responding to them. Unlike that scorching case of herpes, they WILL go away eventually... even though the troll can be more irritating...Two wrongs don't make a right, however three lefts DO!

You must suffer from a lot of personal comments about your gay, vegetarian, racist nazi lifestyle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
