Without trolling, video games would be boring as hell.
In my opinion, some people are so afraid of confrontations in real life that they carry their insecurities with them to the online world. A world where basically anything can be said without consequence. People need to stop being so sensitive and realize that no one knows who you are when you play online. That's why I encourage people to defend themselves or at least try to defend themselves instead of just going the easy route and calling a GM. It's fun playing with trolls, especially when you know what they're doing.
If you come across a troll here's what you can do:
- Obviously don't get angry. Remember, words carry no weight over the internet.
- Instead, think of something clever to say in response to the troll.
- If you really can't think of anything clever at all, just keep quiet. Accept the loss and live to argue with a troll another day.
I troll from time to time when I'm bored and its funny to see people get all worked up over words from a random person they just met over the internet. I find it extremely hilarious when people have come together to get an in-game police to stop one person from trolling as well.
Ah... Good Times.
Its all a different story when that troll has the power to ban you when he fails to realize he got out trolled and gets angry.
Can't really do much about that. but a lot of trolls fail to see that if they trolled successfully, that there is a such thing as taking it too far when it comes to the endgame.
We should do a thread about dictatorship, because I do believe, that we are into one.
Seriously, did I just got a 5 day ban for a joke? This game has changed alot, too bad it was negatively.
Trolling is only good when done well. Good trolling is cornering someone into a discussion they can't possibly win using logic and debate tactics.
