killamch89 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 In most online games I play, I tend to be a huge troll - I am not the malicious kind fo troll - I'm more the one that everyone laughs with and I don't usually troll my own team because I obviously want to win. Do you troll in online games and if so, what kind of troll are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DylanC Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Nah, I don’t troll. Usually find ‘em annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthHazard Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I don't bother. I just don't see the point of it. We're all here to play the game and I think it's important to let everyone enjoy the game. I've seen a few trolling videos on Twitter and YouTube though and some of them can be quite funny. Most of them are harmless and it's just people trying to trick people into thinking something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, You have different kinds of trolling - You have the malicious ones that tell people to commit suicide, throw around racist remarks and are just outright disgusting. Then you have harmless trolls like me who will trick other people in-game into falling for a trap/gag and everyone laughs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander. Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 (edited) I don't troll and never will. Find them irritating and annoying, as they go out their way to be malicious and disrespectful to other online players. I don't see the object in "trolling" Edited December 24, 2018 by xXInfectedXx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techno Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 There are different tiers to trolling: Petty: Simple, annoying jokes made to cause mischief Chaotic: Pranks made to divide others and cause arguments Targeted: Trolls made towards an individual Nuclear: Trolls made to cause damage Overkill: Trolls made to destroy, this tier is rare When it comes to Targeted and above, that's when the harassments usually happen, the problem with trolling is that most trolls always try to go to the highest tier, instead of the most useful tier. Every site is different, in that some sites can handle trolls more than others. Most trolls just go for harassment when then just being petty is enough to get people goats up.

Justin11 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 When I know it wouldn't go well for another person, I wouldn't make the person's life to be full of inconveniences. That's why we should not troll at anyone instead we lead positive by example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Steps to fight trolls. 1. Ignore/mute/block them - Nothing works better than just blocking the trolls 2. Don't stoop to their level or fall for their abuse. They want you to react, that's the whole point of a troll, to get a reaction out of you. 3. If you can't ignore/mute/block someone, leave the game/lobby/mission etc and join a different game 4. Mute the whole damn lobby/room 5. Block communication/friend requests/message requests etc (in some games/services) Trolls are everywhere, comment sections, in game lobbies, and more. It's really how you deal with them that stops them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prof elohstar Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I don't really troll while playing games. But when am trying a new game I like it when I get trolled as it will motivate me to learn the game and get better in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 It’s definitely not fun and ruins the experience. I get if everyone is on board with it, or if it’s a short game like Coup, and you’re just effing around, but it’s not fun to actually screw people over/target people against what makes sense just because you think it’s funny.
