Trolls trolling trolls. Trollish troll is trollish.

I'm not mad, just furious and enraged. So what I want to know is, why all of sudden (real time speaking, not internet time), the internet is so obsessed with trolling? Let's see this from the beginning:

Trolling is defined on several sites:

1. troll
Being a prick on the internet because you can. Typically unleashing one or more cynical or sarcastic remarks on an innocent by-stander, because it's the internet and, hey, you can.

2. trolling
Trolling is the act of purposefully antagonizing other people on the internet, generally on message boards. When done in a moderated internet community, this can result in banning. When done to uptight people such as fundies, this can result in hilarity.
Urban Dictionary

Quote:
In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2]
Wikipedia

Quote:
A Troll, most commonly encountered on the internet, is any person who purposely causes controversy in a web community (by posting offensive and crude comments or provides advice) and disrupts shit for his own amusement to prove how extremely corrupt our society is.
Encyclopedia Dramatica


Quote:
A troll is someone who will state something only with the intention of stirring up controversy.
Know Your Meme

Basically, trolling is internet schadenfreude. Thus it ranks somewhere between toilet humour and dead baby humour in the list of 'stupid sources of lulz'.

But as stupid as trolling is, it's the methods of trolling that are annoyingly depressing.

Common troll responses to anything range from tl;dr to 600 word essays.

Here are some common responses trolls use to dissent intelligence or casual discussion:

Too long; didn't read. (Commonly abbreviated to tl;dr.

Cool story, bro. (Sometimes using the macro version)

O rly? (Sometimes using the macro version)

Quote:
OP is fag. (Sometimes replacing the OP with 'above poster' and the like.)
Quote:
U mad? (Sometimes using the macro version)

These responses are all one-liners. Thus these are usually the mark of an ADHD-addled troll.

Other trolls prefer a longer method of trolling. These trolls will post long or relatively long messages containing controversial claims. For example, BE's own Beefheart often intersperses his posts with sexist, racist, elitist, and illogical bullshit (to his credit though, he does sometimes use his noggin' for thinking and useful discussion).

The point of all this being that I'm sick of these so called trolls and their behaviour.

If you can resist the urge to comment with troll-like responses and are a troll, please try explaining why you do what you do. Other users are free to comment as they wish.
