define trolling...

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by Leah_Smith, Sep 6, 2012.

  1. This may come down to opinion which is why I thought I'd ask in forum form rather than just 1 person. I am asking because I keep seeing it being mentioned everywhere.

    What is trolling? Is it...

    A) finding something that does not regard you in any way but you get involved regardless.

    B) finding something that doesn't involve you, you making bad comments on it because you genuinely believe in those comments regardless of how bad they are.

    C) finding something that has nothing to do with you and making nasty comments just to be spiteful.

    Now, as tempting as it may be, could people perhaps answer rather than just giving me examples of it lol.
     
  2. i need to ask my wife first then get back to you 
     
  3. Personally I believe it's more of saying things to aggravate or stump a particular person. Not necessarily the thread op and not necessarily about the actual topic.

    Not really choice A cause no one EVER minds their own business when it comes to forums
     
  4. Hmmm...well y'all make it easy to troll..don't like us then don't posteasy as that
     
  5. All 3 leah_smith. It takes different forms lol. Hermes made a thread about dealing with them lol. Best not to feed them 
     
  6. Like that right there was an attempt at trolling.
    Sadly enough Master, you tried to troll on the basis that op doesn't like trolling... When she never said she doesn't like trolling

    So fail 
     
  7. Nobody likes negative sentences directed towards them, so clearly the OP doesn't want to be trolled.

    You fail.
     
  8. Trolls  off topic already and no attempt to answer OPs question.

    Example for you leah_smith 
     
  9. I've seen them defined as attention whores and as people who just post things that aggravate and annoy others for enjoyment. I think those have been the definitions I've read.
     
  10. Lmao, trolling doesn't bother me in the slightest. If I don't like something I'll stop reading. I also said examples aren't necessary (I've seen it before many many times lol). I was just curious. Curiosity is gone now I think.
     
  11. A troll(to me) is someone who says or do something to make a certain amount of people angry.
     
  12. And a cat just died cause of that curiosity! 
     
  13. Omg not the kittehhh 
     
  14. Well... Trolling is such a general term and it takes on so many meanings, that I'm sure anything you believe it to be is correct.
     
  15. Trolling is when you go on xbox and play MW3 online an trap people in corners and give there postition away
     
  16. Lmao champ! You do that? That is brilliant!
     
  17. Troll- little dude with wild crazy ass pink hair 
     
  18. Rainbow hair if I remember correctly
     
  19. Kind of... Messing with people on this for example:
    If I replied "living under a bridge" to your question (and not as an example) I would be trolling. At least to my understanding
     
  20. I dunno. I think they had lots of different colors. Pink and lime green and orange. All bright ass colors. I just remember kid at school glued one on the teachers desk. It had hot pink hair.
