Trolling can be amusing, particularly in the company of assholes. (I mean I like trolling jerks)

Griefing is just making other's game experience miserable for the sake of your own stupid sense of humor.

When I write things that I use to inflame, I make sure I provide fact to back up what I say.

The truth is not trolling

I approve of it in many cases:

If the OP is an idiot.
If the troll is funny.
If the troll is original.
If the troll is unoriginal.
If the troll is a retard and can be re-trolled.

There are probably many more categories...

Generally, I think it's obnoxious and unnecessary. There are however some instances where it's simply done very well/to people who really deserve it. Then it's hilarious.

Don't feed the trolls.

Trolls come in two varieties: Attention whores and Straight A*holes.

There is nothing good about trolling. At least according to my definition. To me trolling is the act of intentionally pissing someone (or some people) off for no reason. You can claim it's funny, but in my opinion it's only funny when you know the person. That's just giving your friends crap, which is kind of expected. When you intentionally piss random strangers off on purpose, you're just a dick.
^this.

It can be funny but trolling on easy prey (on purpose) is sad. I mean, you are intentionally pissing off naive people in hopes that they will do something stupid for your own amusement. Trolling an 8 year girl is not really an accomplishment.
Someone who trolls an 8 year old girl must be pretty easy to troll,therefore trolling him to show him how much of a dumbass he is would make the troll troller look more pathetic than the troll trolling the little girl.

And now for something completely different.

I love it. We trolled our US History teacher hard last school year. He trolled us back. It was a nice time.
But as always, there can be TOO much of anything.

tl;dr

Just kidding. Like that picture of the cosmos said, if you troll good they don't know they's been troll'd. Is there a meme for you've been trolled? Because that would be halarious to convince someone something and THEN post the meme.

Pretty much this. I've never understood why people think pissing off or upsetting other people is funny. Then again, I don't find reality TV a la Big Brother that funny either.

People getting hurt, angry, or humiliated to amuse others is not funny to me.

You can't do that... you can't just pick two random words, put them together, and expect it to mean something.

My opinion of trolling? It's what assholes do. It's just like bullying, except it's the nerds doing it--and it's still not okay.

It depends on who you're trolling and how you're trolling them. It's pretty funny usually, but sometimes it goes too far.

I'm good with a troll that only makes you go, "Oh you!". Anything more than that, which is most of trolling admittedly, doesn't fly in my book.
