How is it a troll?

 

trolling to me is a fishing technique by baiting. In this case the HARM is the bait and we are the fish getting caught up in the net! :)

To troll has a specific definition with regard to online behavior.

 

/trōl/

verb

gerund or present participle: trolling

1.

INFORMAL

make a deliberately offensive or provocative online post with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them.

He simply made a video with whatever dev build they're on, as he always does. That's not trolling.

 

It was a light-hearted statement..... it wasn't meant to be an insult.

I wasn't insulted, just schooling you on the fact that every word already has a meaning and you should know them before you use them, Carry on.

 

Really Trev?? May I recommend this? :Dab-buds.png?w=750

It seems Trev is part of the new online generation that has redefined the English language :D

 

I worked on fishing boats in my youth and we trolled for Barracouta to put in our rock lobster traps.

Trolling to us was a painted piece of dowel with a hook screwed to it tied to a cord and trailing behind the boat about 10 meters. Fish would see the lure and chase after it.

 

Watching Wags video I did feel like I wanted to swim faster to catch up to that F-14!

I love keyboard commandos. They really just bring the whole group together in such a positive and informative way. Looking at Trev’s post history- he’s always on top of the keys. Always there to make sure to comment on other people’s posts in a way that truly shows his stellar character while, at the same time adding almost nothing to the topic at hand or helping his fellow DCS’ers. What a guy. You keep up the great work, little buddy.

 

Wags, truly- I meant absolutely no disrespect with regard to troll comment.

You can 'ignore' Trev, I finally had to, his posts add nothing of value and stand only to aggressively put others down.

 

Agreed, and I did the same recently - not that he ever did anything to me, I just got fed up seeing his attitude everywhere.

Well unless the President's English is different

 

Troll is a mythical creature, I believe it's origins are in Scandinavian folklore. When used in an online environment it has a different, more specific, meaning as already alluded too.

 

Trawling is a method used to catch fish by dragging a baited line (or net) behind a slow moving vessel

 

As far as Wag's comment I am at a complete loss to it's meaning so this is one fish that's too thick to even see the bait let alone take it
