Why Do You Troll?

[Timotei]

I always do it for the lulz.

Whenever someone gets uptight about somthing and starts flaming, I throw fuel on their fire by trying to sound like a complete idiot in order to get them to RAAAGE!!!!! as much as possible. They usually get hammered, and I sit back in my chair with a drink and laugh.

 

[Soxafloppin]

I dont. Period.

 

[HollywoodH17]

Trolling's lame. Baiting, on the other hand...

What do you mean by baiting?

Ooh! Shiny! :uts barbed hook in mouth::

 

[Argtee]

I don't troll.
*cough*

 

[Lamppenkeyboard]

I troll very rarely on this strain of videos on youtube. I say strain because I mean disease. They are almost always titled "a sad storie about a girl" and are basically what Stephanie Meyer would be without spellcheck.

 

[tmujir955]

I Troll cus I want to get banned, quickly. Why Do you?

Fix'd.

OP: I don't, I do occasionally feed them though.

Like now.

<------

 

[Sassafrass]

Why would you assume I troll?
I have not trolled and I probably never will.

And I mean that when I rarely troll, I unload the hatred there. Never here, god forbid.

For the lulz.

Agreed, it's really, really funny.

I don't because I don't go to 4chan.

Sorry, I couldn't hear you over the sound of how much better you are than us.

This man speaks epic amounts of truth. Everyone in this forum seems to look down on 4chan as though it's The Escapist's retarded brother or something. Let me ask you people, how many of you have been to 4chan, or at least lurked? I admit I'm a /b/tard or whatever because the website is so damn funny. People think it's stupid because 'Oh, it's just people saying the same joke over and over again'. Well yes, it is, just you have injokes with your friends.

Trust me, seeing EFG saying 'Singles get', only for his post to end in 00 is funnier than anything I have read on this site.

If you didn't understand what I just said, I have one piece of advice: lurk moar. Some of you need to pull your heads out of your asses and actually visit a site before you declare yourselves better than them.

I Troll cus I can. Why Do you?

Just because you CAN do something does not mean you SHOULD.

I CAN grab a kitchen knife and go on a stabbing spree around my local primary school. I CHOOSE not to because I know I SHOULDN'T.

See how that works?

Also: I wonder how many times this has been reported?

This basically. Also, what's the point? All you can prove is that some people like to take the painfully obvious bait of "omg hal0 r b3tt3r th4n lyph"

 

[RanD00M]

Because i don´t do it.

I used to do it on some random sites.But it has lost all it's appeal to me.

P.S. I never trolled the Escapist.

 

[Assassin Xaero]

I don't. Well, according to someone, me having the opinion that RTS games are all the same is trolling while him saying Age of Empires sucks isn't trolling, because apparently him saying AoE sucks makes it a true fact. When will people ever make logical sense? Oh yeah, never. -.-

 

[Cosplay Horatio]

I don't troll.

 

[noodles loves you]

Can't say I troll but I certainly try and make my opinions as obnoxious as possible, to constantly test the levels of nazi present in the blood of the escapist forums, or more specifically their moderators.

weirdly they've been very lax lately.

 

[Fwee]

I don't think I troll. Some people's posts might be viewed as trolling when they were simply trying to state their opinion in a limited amount of time, or they simply start out with a valid argument and run out of interest or motivation to keep going.
Then there's the "(insert subject) R KWEERZ" type of obvious trolling. Probably just someone who either needs someone to take interest in their life, or a vish-ass beatdown.
I woke up VERY hung over on New Year's Day and got fed up with Suicide Girls' myspace site automatically friend requesting me so I started a post about how hypocritical they were, and about fifteen minutes after I finished I re-read it and thought, "Wow, I'm a troll!"
Deleted it.

High five! I've been saying this to all of the dumbfucks on The Escapist talking out their ass for ages now.

exactly, its the INTERNET, therefore it's not real, have so FREAKING FUN WITH IT.

 

[ADeskofRichMahogany]

Usually because my friend and I want to do something together, but doesn't have the potential for frustration.

Other times, it's because I can.

Trolls are looked down upon here.

Hey look, they are broadcasting themselves to be trolls. Quick, where is the mods to boot them off?

Broadcasting themselves to be trolls is not against any rules. Trolling is. Until they actually troll these boards, nothing can be done. I, for example, troll a small fan forum on occasion. Usually when I'm unable to post here, but I've not been for a while...

Course, that's not counting the habbo raids ^_^

 

[L3m0n_L1m3]

TROLLS, YOU SAY?

OT: I don't troll because I don't find pissing people off a very entertaining past time.

 

[Indecizion]
