    Oh, the cluelessness, it burns!

    First off, everyone loves Boxxy! Everyone. Yes, even you there who is about to exclaim that you haet boxxy. You actually love her. Just accept it.

    Secondly, troll comes from trolling, which is to say, fishing by dragging bait behind a boat. Originaly trolling meant that you said things you knew were wrong to get noob besserwissers to jump you and hoist themselves on their own petard by getting upset.

    Today, what people mostly call trolling is more appropriatly called simple harrasment or bullying. There is really nothing tricky or clever about it.

    Does anyone else find it funny that what Fox News describes as trolling can apply to them with respect to politics/news?

    Trolling, Griefing (as it is known in MMOs) bullies, harassment, it’s all the same thing. Pests. You ignore pests, and they eventually go away and try to annoy someone else.

    Their whole point in life is to piss people off. So just don’t get pissed.

    Problem here is FOX news makes it sound like this is new and it’s at near-epidemic proportions so you need to panic, have a knee-jerk reaction, and protect your kids.

    However this kind of crap has been going on at school play grounds for hundreds of years. Nothing new, move along.

    Problem?

    So a troll is “someone who deliberately causes controversy” or “anyone who wants to upset anyone else… on the internet”.

    Ok, here goes:

    Sarah Palin wants crazy people to kill Democrats.
    Anyone who opposes health-care is a racist.
    Fox News is hate speech.

    And like all the best trolls, there is an element of truth there.

    Spent and awful lot of time on in the news groups in the good old days. Trolls were a pain but you dealt with them.

    People into simple harassment in this day and age are asking to go to jail, etc. if you can run them down. They may not be in your country and may have been knocked off line dozens of times.

    Welcome to the Intraweb loser!

    Seriously, we act as if these “trolls” are vicious hideous people who have a mission. Trolling is something anybody can and will probably do at some point. I know I’ve been guilty of posting a comment for the mere purpose of digging another person. So to say anyone can become a victim is true, but it’s also important to say anyone can become a troll and not realize it either..

    point is.. deal with it and stfu…seriously.
