(sorry, couldn't resist).
Troll is just a word used by people unable to logically refute another person's opinion. It's easier for some people to just call you a name when they lack the ability to form reasonable arguments...
Oh and another, seriously? or are you serious? No, I'm making crap up again.
Probably only because someone on the moderating staff learned that "Bless Your Heart" doesn't mean what most people think it means. (ask a southerner if you're confused... )
I don't disagree with you. In my time on this board, I've seen this tossed around quite a bit. Usually it's from someone unable to effectively argue... someone who who thinks that repetition equals "proof". Then someone will poke holes in their flimsy "argument" and will subsequently be called a troll.Well, we are going to have to disagree that this is the only definition of this word as used on this board.
I find people on here use it constantly when it involves a story that sounds unimaginable. When you work in the at-risk world as I do, you have pretty much seen and heard it all, and so despite a story sounding far fetched, there is a good possibility that the person behind that story is telling the truth, and thus, should not be called a troll at all.
I have found in all of my years on the DIS, that I haven't really seen that many actual Internet trolls, compared to the amount of times this word is used.

In previous threads when people have complained about prayer requests, mods have said they were allowed and that it was just discussion of religion itself (or debate about it) that was a problem.

You probably didn't read the Subway fight thread!!
Marlea98 said:It's not a word but two - must/should/would/could/had of. It should be have, not of. I can only think people say that because the contraction sounds like 'ov' and I understand that, but it still bugs me, more so when it is written as of instead of have But if that's my only worry in life then I think I'm doing pretty well
Oh, and I hate it when my daughter replies 'whatever' to something I say to her that she doesn't agree with
