Re: Forum Trolls and The World

Most people incorrectly use the term "anti-social," which we typically associate with introversion. "Anti-social behavior" is really a sort of selfishness that can lead to lying/cheating/stealing/harming others in some way without consideration.

So, yes, trolling is anti-social behavior because it's not really promoting any sort of social good in any way -- it's meant to simply disrupt society, even if it's an online community. But only moderately so. It's only slightly harsher than the crap someone might give another in person when making fun of him/her. The fact that you can troll anonymously only incentivizes someone to be even more of a cock without fear of punishment.

Re: Forum Trolls and The World

Could it be possible that the *true* forum is the world, and people are all just trolling it?

All validity of anything you may have said is torn asunder by this question. Very circular logic. Statements like that get no one anywhere. One could also say "We are all theoretically just computer simulations of a much more advanced creation." What kind of justification is there for such a uncoordinated thought? Pure drivel.
