Meh, don't really troll. I just see wrong things among certain fandoms and I feel to need to voice my opinion. People call it trolling, but you're a troll or a hater if you dislike something someone else is crazy about. :/

SSB really went downhill after Melee....

I see nothing wrong with using irony or sarcasm to highlight others' fanaticism or double standards, or to make, obliquely, a legitimate point. But true trolling, i.e., upsetting others for fun, is the height of selfish, insecure, and counter-productive behavior. It has no place here or on any other community forum.

A lot of posts seem to be misinterpreted as trolling, usually anything with sarcasm or added "sting".

I think those are perfectly fine. Sarcasm and irony are literary devices after all. What bothers me is when users post inflammatory words simply to draw a negative reaction from someone. What is the point other than injury?

Just to irritate people who are being fanatical, unreasonable or are just downright trolling themselves.





Yep.

By the way, why do so many adults play Nintendo games? That's just a bunch of kitty shit.

It's funny as hell.

It's your fault for feeding us, or else we'd all go away.

That's mean.  That's what my grandpa would call 'tarnation' on because we should all be friends and do the LORDS work and get along and be friends.  People might be crying at home and that would be bad because we should be friends.

Because no is paying the Toll.

Because people are stoopid.

I don't troll, in fact I don't consider myself a fan of any company in particular.
