It's funny out of context. Her gay brother was bullied and killed himself. A bunch of kids at homecoming chanted about how they were glad he's dead.

In context it makes you want to kick the shit out of a bunch of teenagers.

How is that trolling? Sounds like bullying/ actual ignorance.

It isn't trolling, but the media doesn't really understand the culture that has developed over the internet.

Just make sure you don't drive home on the wrong side.

Actually do, and then when you're killed and they interview your relatives, they can put "victim of trolling" on the lower third.

The media should just hire an adviser from The Internet to work for them.

Then you have to ask, if someone from a chan or reddit was hired to be an advisor, wouldn't they actually try to make the trolling worse?

In fact, I feel like every company should just keep one random person who spends half their time on various internet communities on staff, so that when they do something downright retarded, and everyone seems to know but the company, the person can let them know.

Example: within 24 seconds, the person could have told microsoft their Bing ads were terrible, and everyone hates them. Microsoft saves money, we don't have to watch those awful ads, everyone wins.

WEEEE CANT BE DEFEATEEEEEEED, WOAH-OHHHH WOAH-AH-OH

[–]sgtpppr 4 points5 points ago

Of course the media doesn't understand the definition of "trolling" when Internet folk use it wrong more than half the time.

Bullying: Attacking specific people; usually on a personal level. Done for the feeling of power.

Trolling: Baiting a large group of people by saying outrageous, offensive, or inflammatory things you don't even believe to see how many people will fight with you. Done for NEGATIVE ATTENTION.

Following someone specific around the net or in real life and verbally/physically abusing them is bullying. Going into a Harry Potter chat room and continually saying Twilight is superior is trolling. You can only be a "victim" of trolling if you choose to be. You don't choose to be a victim of bullying.

[–]knome 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Trolling doesn't have to be for negative attention focused on the troll. The focus is inciting other people for personal amusement. Whether the troll doubles as an attention whore is irrelevant.

When they do things right, people won't be sure they've done anything at all.

[–]sgtpppr 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

This is true. I was simplifying it so I didn't post a 20 page detailed study of trolls and troll behavior online. Most of them just like the attention. Some are truly just anti social, like starting flame wars, and laughing while it all burns.

After watching a news report on it, my dad informed me that the definition of "Trolling" was to tease someone until they killed themselves.

Any attempt to correct the definition was met with, "Nope, that's not what they said on the news."

I'm also old. Taking my teenage sons to a visitation for their friend tonight. He killed himself Wednesday night. He was bullied at a school with less than 600 kids. I want the names of the kids, and I want the names of their parents. I'd also like a statement from the principal and superintendent stating what the hell they're going to do to make sure it stops.

I'd like to know what the hell to tell my kids, too, to help them come to peace with it eventually.

This just made me realize that I too knew a girl who killed herself over bullying, as well as a broken home situation and, if the rumors were true, a young teenage pregnancy. I hadn't thought about the bullying aspect of it, but sure, the signs were there. I missed her laughter, as it was genuine and pure, when it was there....

I has a sad :(

Do you know what happened to the kids who did it? What kind of (hopefully gruesome) punishment did they get?

I think I actually saw some of this episode. "Online Dangers: Trolling, Lurking, and Trafficking."

Naturally, only one of these is actually a danger most of the time. I couldn't help but break out laughing in the dining hall because "trolling" led me to think this.

on TV it would.

also, in Texas, it might be defensible as "justified homicide".
