Sometimes a person will present a point so dumb and so idiotic that normal people can't comprehend it being serious, so they think it's a troll.

Posting a differing opinion with the sole purpose to stir up an argument is the definition of trolling.


Yes it is.

But how are you suppose to know if its my real opinion or not.

Take me for example. I'm a conservative, religious, sports loving man.

Naturally my opinions are going to be different than 90% of the internet.
Poe's Law.

That doesn't even help you.
What are you talking about? My point is that it's impossible to know if the poster is being satirical, or genuinely thinks these crazy things, which is a direct response to But how are you suppose to know if its my real opinion or not.

also don't forget that opinions CAN be wrong. It all really depends on the context though

Can opinions be wrong on the context of a video game sucking?

After seeing your "opinions" in the stay at home dad thread, I'm pretty sure you are a troll.

You're the idiot who thought hypocrisy was a punishable offense. I take nothing you say seriously. At all.

Not punishable in the name of the law, just something to be looked down upon.

Sometimes I am tempted to quit gaming. I can no longer play without seeing ponyphags, horrendously bad teammates and mexicans.

Gaming community, I want you to know that you suck.

These threads are always made by alts/trolls.

No. Posting a dissenting opinion with the intent to piss off others is trolling. A dissenting opinion for the sake of discussion is just that: discussion.

The opinions of a poorly-made troll alt don't matter.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Bungie.net lacks many things, but knowledge of what a troll actually is is one of them.

That's because they are either:

A) An idiot.

B) Just flat out wrong on so many levels.

I find that Teh-Ziod is NOT attractive for the reasons
she/he does not correct format sentences, therefore for intelligent matured members of society that may interact with her/him, may find her/him UNattractive for the reason that she/he does not comprehend with their level to successfully have a conversation therefore it will be socially an awkward interaction which may be wanted to be avoided

second i do not find it physically possible for a PERSON to be a ice cream truck.

So, how many alts are you going to make Rose? You know, perhaps, people wouldn't call you a troll if you weren't so damn transparent in your posting habits that anyone could link your accounts together.

If you used this sure for one day you'll realize this. Dumb peopl that aren't capable of acknowledging different opinions exist will call you a troll. Most of the time they're not smart enough to even make a counter argument, so they resort to name calling.
You must be new to this. I've been subjected to this..well..for awhile. You learn to look past those sorts of things after a while.

Ya dig?

I am a Floodian

No, people think someone is a troll when they deviate from an opinion that is widely accepted, has some emotional value in the audience, and don't provide and substantive reasons to back up their opinion.


Also, anyone who says that opinions can't be wrong.
