Okay so I just saw this thread about this guy who lost his loot to a mage, My heart bled for all those innocent people being reported for trolling when they were stating a simple fact!

My definition of trolling.
IS: Tricking someone into thinking something that isn't true, is. for example. 1.) 4chan users making a fake entertainment tonight and a fake Justin bieber Twitter page and making his fans believe he had cancer so they'd shave their heads, well it worked so I guess they got trolled. 2.) my mother once made me blue waffles and when I was like "omg delicious" she told me to Google them.

NOT: Stating fact or being witty and/or insensitive about your replies or come backs.

Truely does sadden me but oh well what can you do except for explain to me what you think is trolling.
