ok....what is trolling..and flaming???

trolling: posting with the sole intent of agitating others, for amusement...personal gratification...the key is that they only post to cause trouble, and have no interest otherwise.

flaming: more like an off-topic war of words between those who agitate eachother, on purpose or otherwise.

best i can describe.

many here, including myself, and even some mods included, have taken part in flaming. i just think its natural. people sometimes dont get along, disagree harshly, and throw in jabs and slaps in their posts aimed at another poster. its not a perfect world, or internet, so there will always be flaming.

trolling, however, annoys the crap out of me. usually unhappy insecure guttless 13 year old boys who cant stand up for themselves in real life, so they use the internet as an outlet for their pent-up agressive antisocial tendencies, since if they conducted themselves in such a manner in their day to day lives they would get their asses kicked routinely.

hope that helps

But trolling can include inflammatory posts?

PVS
the way i understand it, trolling is EXCLUSIVELY inflammatory.

so its not "this guy is pissing me off so ill throw in a jab"
but more like "i have nothing better to do so im going to piss EVERYONE off (probably followed by idiotic laughter-duhuhuhuhuhuh)

Neither is fun. Trolling and Flamming is stupid, pointless, idiotic, and childish.

No they won't! This is clearly an open invitation to any troller out there and is not allowed! Trolls aren't welcome in the forums and same goes for spammers and flammers. Therefore this thread is closed and do not open another with the same topic.
