Anatomy of an Internet Troll (Don't Troll here)

[Deleted member 178]

hi,

lately i smelled lot of trolling here on MT, but many members don't know what is a Troll ; so there it is :


Anatomy:

Description:

In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[4]

This sense of the word troll and its associated verb trolling are associated with Internet discourse, but have been used more widely. Media attention in recent years has equated trolling with online harassment. For example, mass media has used troll to describe "a person who defaces Internet tribute sites with the aim of causing grief to families."[5][6]

I find that there's two kinds of trolls.

Those that only like insulting people
Similar to what Umbra describe
"n Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion"

And those who do it for fun and don't mean to insult or verbally harm anyone.

I assume this is the thread which got you promoted as MalwareTips staff? Great work I absolutely love it very helpful. (clap clap - sarcasm on the side*)

Complaining about trolls on a security forum yet you are trolling yourself with such a useless thread.

@Umbra was a staff member since I came to this forum which is 2 months+ before this was posted.

And @Jack thank you for removing Lawyerbytes. This forums is for security not for accusing other members.

what is funny with that member is that to read this thread, he had to :

1- open my signature spoiler
2- click the link ...

and then he still decided to troll

A troll is also known as an idiot, and idiots ruin things for other people!
