A troll is someone who has succeeded in annoying people, therefore you don't even have to be trying to be a troll, to be a troll.
You really couldn't be more wrong. Although if this is the floods official definition of trolling, it really says a lot about the state of this place and the people who post here.
And to think some people actually believe the flood has never changed, hah.
Let me guess, you think a troll is someone who posts along the lines of "LOL REACH IS THA BEST HALO, CE AN 2 ARE A -blam!-, IF U DISAGREE THEN UR A BK VIRGIN LELELELELELELELELEL nerds"?
Newsflash, meanings of words change, even if you honestly believe that reach is the best halo and the others are all utter trash, you're going to piss people off and you're essentially trolling.
Absolutely not. Trolling is all about being subtle, that's what it was. Uninformed, maybe even (dare I say it) unintelligent people gave it a new meaning, because god knows how or why. It inflated and suddenly every 12 year old is a "master trole".
Because the average floodian cannot comprehend subtlety or cleverness, these days trolling (as you describe it) all comes down to who can pretend to be the most convincing retard.
