Gimmick posting as a pedophile.

Changing their username to "username's dead mommy'' in the instance of a member who was grieving a recent death.

People who engage in that type of behavior suck, as do the people laughing at it. Not cool, at all.

What sort of scumbag would do that? That's not even close to trolling, that's just ****ing evil scumbag behaviour which should have that person banned forever. ****s.

It's ironic you're named trollheart

i agree, the things said for shock value are getting a little extreme now.
And they're said with no taste, you can get away with alot if you word it the right away, you don't really need to hide your trollish side if you got one just keep it in check.

For some reason im thinking of that smurf that gives out the exploding gifts, i forgot his name, Assh*le smurf i think he's called, always laughing at other ppl's expense.

But if we hate this trolls, why do we become them? essentially we embrace the same thing just to a different degree, but i guess that's makes all the difference.

Yeah, it really was. I modded a couple of subforums and got threats every time i moved a post or infracted someone. Threats of rape were my last straw. Everyone hid behind free speech and there was this attitude of "feelings are for ***gots", and the admins were so afraid of backlash that they never put a stop to it.

That's because I like this place. Even then, I have trolled here before under different usernames, though I decided not to anymore. I was going to troll under the PhantomMartyr username, but I decided not to troll here anymore, and Vanilla banned that account. I was also banned awhile ago under a different account. But, I will personally promise not to troll here anymore.

There are two different types of trolls. The bad kind of troll, that just insults people or acts like a complete retard, and the good type of troll, who's a little more subtle, and may even appear to be a nice, intelligent person. All you have to do is post something controversial for the sole purpose of getting people riled up, and you can be a successful troll. Of course, sometimes it's alright to do a little of the first one. It's okay to be (fake) angry at times or to act a little stupid. Just don't take it overboard.

Anyways, thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you like my posts.

Frankly.... I think a lot of people try to resort to calling their behavior 'trolling' in an attempt to cover up the fact they're legit idiots or *******s.

Ohhh no its okay I said that, I'm trollin, yo! I aint for real real, just for play play!

Fine line between trolling and actually sucking.

I kinda feel bad. I feel that I'm indirectly responsible for YorkeDaddy getting banned because of my reputation thread.
