A word that’s on many people’s lips & is often used in this site .
So what is a troll ?
Someone who attacks another person with comment & when they retaliate are called a troll.
Or is it , someone who doesn’t agree with another’s point of view & puts up a legitimate argument, but is then accused of trolling?

In internet slang, a troll is a person who posts inflammatory, insincere, digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses, or manipulating others' perception.

To be clear .. I didn't say it.
It's the internet's definition of an internet troll.
Makes it easier for each of us to determine if we are indeed a troll ..

I agree, it's a long time since we've had real trolls the calibre of 'seven eyes' for instance on here. There was a time when as soon as one was found out and disappeared another one took their place and they all were no fools, they knew exactly how to push the buttons
I kind of miss those days.... laugh

Hey, Peanuts, I have only seen one other person on cs more easily triggered than you in the forums, he doesn't live on your island. I think he lives in spain or portugal.

Listen banter is different thing. Banter is good when both enjoying.

But trolling is different issues when one is angry and one is enjoy. handshake
