There’s lots I don’t understand on here, like what’s the point/purpose of a troll. What are they in it for?

Basically to start arguments, cause discord and disharmony. Usually very easy to spot if you know the signs. Why do they do it? Who knows? Perhaps they are one of triplets and their siblings got the breasts, perhaps bullied in secondary school by a primary schoolgirl, perhaps just sad, twisted and bitter tossers with no life.

There seem to be a few of those on the forum. Thanks for the explanation.

+1 for the explanation :thumbsup:

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

Or perhaps just for a laugh? He/she didn't do any harm and was amusing IMO. Makes a change from roofs breaking and water in boots! :thumbsup:

Dear Comrade Pondrew,

At least I now have a full understanding of what it is like to be pilloried. This notwithstanding, the opinion of others upon this Forum who behaved in a manner which I believe is just an exiguous degree less than satisfactory has not damaged me; but I can well understand that it could damage others. It is not at all good to behave in such a way; for example I attended a gruelling funeral this afternoon and I will not deny that upon returning home, and having read some of the quite iniquitous posts set against me, did not improve what was a really sad day.

I would confirm that there can be no resurrection for me, so I shall bid you all farewell and truly, I do wish you all great happiness for the future; but I would add this rider: "It is not at all good to take gratuitous pleasure at endeavouring to make another human being unhappy".

With my very best wishes,

Z4MAD

Guys if you think that was bad trolling then you probably haven't seen proper trolling/bullying, this was clearly a bit of fun like enuff_zed says and it was not nasty. In fact, it was forum members being nasty if anything, also if you have to announce your victory after 80 comments it's not really a victory is it lol. I learnt a few words, definitely aiming to use sesquipedalianism when someone writes me an email trying to vomit a thesaurus at me!

My favourite comment came from pondrew, made me and the chap at work laugh

OP, if you can't work PMs you'll never figure out an i-Drive :D

Imagine if this chap is for real, buys an E89 and then goes to a meet?
I don't care where it is; I'm coming :D
thanks for the laugh Z4mad but I think you should leave it there now, the joke is finished

I never said it was bad trolling, I said he was a very poor troll. :D

By definition, if a troll actually entertains people and gives them a bit of a laugh then he's failed and therefore is a poor troll.

By your definition of what constitutes a troll in an earlier post; I don't see him as a troll at all.
I'm not even 100% sure he isn't for real. :o

Maybe she was in this for a laugh. She wasn't nasty at any time (doesn't mean she is a bad Troll, it just means that people will 'turn things around' to meet what they think). Those that reacted badly/aggressively to her have been 'flushed' out, but we knew them anyway from the 'Pbondar Thread'. Well done, I say.
I don't care what you say, I won't agree with your view. :x
