Looks like my definition of troll is wrong then. Ahh well, thanks.
Btw I made this thread with a bit of humoroues intent. If I was upset I would probably care to write more then 1 line. Plus not being sure of forum rules helps explain the thread name
Also, isnt trolling going off topic on an off topic?
I'll help.
Troll - in Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion
The sole reason for this thread was to provoke a specific response from a specific person.... trolling.
If a conversation goes off topic of it's own accord, it isn't necessarily trolling.
If a completely new topic is made focused solely on that topic change, that is indeed trolling.
Going "off topic on an off topic" is impossible. By definition, the original had no topic to derail.
It's all well and good if you were joking with someone. But calling the posters that responded trolls is absolutely hypocritical, since that's what you were doing in the first place. If you start a thread trolling, you should expect to be trolled.

Hello!
It's nice to see you here!
Whatever you want,
Everywhere you go
Let's all just try to get along.
Can't we just be friends here?
Or, is that just too much to ask?
Make this forum your friend.
Everyone needs more friends...

Meatjob: Warforged 5 FvS | Tronjeremy: HOrc 4 Monk
Let me clarify.
This has happened because I made this post on the orien forums:

Both Porq and Unscythe should know this is a proper way to greet others if you are from Khyber (notice Khyber is a 'capital "K" whereas orien is lowercase? yes...)
They should know this because they are both guildies here on Khyber.
Saying they are guildies when they have such small knowledge of common courtesies and practices on Khyber is embarassing to say the least.
I have alts on orien but never go there.
It is a place riddled with nOObdom.
The reason why this post happened is because they have spread the same BS nonsense type thread unto the Khyber forums via this thread:

I tried to avoid posting here due to this thread:

Now then, I am busy with other things (painting) and as such am more inclined to do something much more enjoyable.
