TROLLS
i'm new to qatar. i've been hearing a lot about QL, both good and bad. never really had the urge to post anything except now. what i've noticed is that most of the forums are being "trolled" by the same people. i'm not commenting, just stating what i've observed. for those who are absolutely clueless as to what this web slang means, here you go. enrich your knowledge.

Troll
"a troll is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant 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 an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion."
quite a sad reality this on-line community is plagued with.
Well Drac, prepare to meet your maker!!!
btw, I've got 2 or 3 spare monitors flying around. Give me a call sometime =P
Forum trolls absolutely crack me up.
Everyone knows what a forum troll is.
You know, those (usually) noobs that come into your thread, talk bad about QL members and usually can walk away unscathed, hiding behind their alt and never revealing their true identity.
Throughout my time hanging around on the forums, I don’t think I can say I’ve ever let a troll get the best of me by lashing out immaturely, or ever actually gotten angry because of what a troll has said.
....will you please name those "same people" who are trolling the forums?
