    Does "trolling" make you mad?

    Hey I've been playing a game called HoN (pretty popular in the Linux community since it's from S2) and just recently moved on the SC2 yesterday. However in the gaming community there are many trollers and when they're winning "u mad brah?" or "stop QQ" REALLY makes me angry.

    I do realize it's just a game and I'd love to play with each side giving tips on how to get better or even a friendly conversation. But when these kids know they can hide behind a monitor and think they're cool I just lose it and want to literally find them, take a plane and beat the out of em.

    Was wondering does trolling have the same effect on u or should I take some anger management classes? (I dont mean just game trolling but trolling in general)

    No. It's just the internet, and if you get mad you're just doing what they want.



    tbh, I find it funny that people can get angry because someone said "u mad brah?"
    Code:
    while true; do echo -n "RiceMonster "; done

    Woah, that sounded a bit Psychotic.

    I don't get mad at trolls, I troll yahoo answers when I'm bored sometimes.

    I do get kind of annoyed when people insult you for beating them with a superior weapon. "only noobs use rocket launchers/rail guns/plasma guns/shotguns/anything other than brass knuckles"
    I had to do it.

    That's where AI on modern games really bites.

    The Computer Player needs to throw misspelled grammar school insults at you during combat if they want to mimic human players...

    Unreal Tournament 3 does that, but it's voice.

    As someone who's dived through the dark, dank underbelly of the YouTube troll community, I will say this: It's a lot of fun, and I love doing it. It's a form of mutual hatred and debate with ad-hominem and ad-nasuem attacks. Articulation is the ultimate goal.

    It's a weird, weird sort of subculture where someone is essentially worshipped for being foul and offensive, but hey, it's a living.

    I agree, it's fun if you're stuck on the computer and bored.
