Baldur's Gate Tumblr Trolling

I kinda felt the need to share this with you guys. I dunno this person sounded like they were bragging hardcore about something entirely unimpressive so I had to kick them down a notch. All in good fun mind you :)

    "Motherf*$%ing Garrick man!"

    The standard example of incompetence.

    Oi, keep in mind that Garrick is just Cameron Tofer's role in the game. If he had to act himself, then he would have had 25 in all stats Level 50/50/50 Sorcerer/Paladin/Priest of Talos triple wielding Carsomyrs! D:

    Ironically, I actually enjoy having Garrick in my parties. But yes, as @Drugar said, he is "the standard example of incompetence." Plus I'm sure if you asked said Tumblr user, they would definitely think their PC was miles beyond that "worthless Garrick."

    I'm going to go ahead and drop this here--bragging about trolling is probably just as bad as trolling itself.

    Besides, trolling is a word thrown way too easy nowadays.

    Just bear it in mind. I don't want this site to develop a reputation for bullying people on their tumblr accounts. ;)

    Agreed; I mean what I did was hardly trolling, considering I gave the person a disclaimer... AKA sissied out, I'm just not mean enough.

    i don't know why, but this just feels appropriate =)

    That's not trolling, that's just pointing out someone's tactic really isn't very impressive.

    Trolling, *real* trolling, is just taking the piss in an annoying but harmless way, online. What the media thinks 'trolling' is, is hateful, nasty comments on someone's page for no reason, and with no humour. That's not trolling, that's just being an arsehole.

    @Mangus_Grelich Alright sir, why don't you come up with a better title for my thread then? I had to come up with something that rolled off the tongue and was at least moderately accurate, while also telling what the thread is actually about. I wasn't fully satisfied with the thread title myself. Why don't you comment on the content of the actual thread instead of the damn title? You nit-pickers on this forum are really starting to piss me off. Don't you have anything better to do with your life?

    And incoming the "whoa man calm down I didn't mean it that way" reply. I don't care. Either comment something beneficial in my threads or don't comment at all, otherwise it's annoying, it really is that simple.
  • Magnus_GrelichMagnus_Grelich Member Posts: 361
    @Quartz: I wasn't "nit-picking", as you put it, and I certainly wasn't having a go at you. I was simply following up someone's comment about how the word 'troll' is used in the wrong context. Take your panties out of your butt, man.
  • Magnus_GrelichMagnus_Grelich Member Posts: 361
    Also, drop the internet tough guy act, no-one cares, you tool.
  • DeeDee Member Posts: 10,447
    There's no need for either of you to be hostile. Remember the Site Rules.

    @Quartz: I've been noticing you've been taking a rather provocative attitude as off lately. It's quite a shame, because I've seen you acting more reasonable in the past. I could actually say you are trolling right now, because from what I've seen in my time on the internet, trolling usually consists of someone acting in such a provocative way to others, usually leading to off-topic debates, insults and generally derailing of the topic itself. Just calm down. We're all trying to be a group of decent people here, and I'd hate to see us failing. There are enough crappy forums out there already.

    Thanks everyone for reminding me why I never make threads. I'll make sure to remember that the next time I try to actually contribute anything.
  • TressetTresset Member, Moderator Posts: 8,268
    Well, I like the thread well enough...

    Hmm. I don't make many threads either actually. Probably because I second guess myself too much.
  • Kitteh_On_A_CloudKitteh_On_A_Cloud Member Posts: 1,629
    @Quartz: Well, if we 'nitpickers' really tick you off that much, maybe you shouldn't make such topics here on this forum. I suggest you go to the off-topic section of the Bioware Social Network, maybe the mentality of the people there is better to your liking. I for one know why I left the damn place. You haven't even seen what nitpicking actually is. Maybe you will there.

    You don't need to be antagonistic either, @Kitteh_On_A_Cloud. We welcome discussion here; all we ask is that people be respectful of each other (yes, even when they make a mistake).
  • ScotGaymerScotGaymer Member Posts: 526
    Calm down people.

    It's only a thread. Hehe.

    @fitscotgaymer: Nope, totally gotta take it seriously, as I got no life. :p
  • KilivitzKilivitz Member Posts: 1,459
    I think the guy's enthusiasm with the game is quite endearing, really.
  • Kitteh_On_A_CloudKitteh_On_A_Cloud Member Posts: 1,629
    @Kilivitz: I think we all were so enthusiastic when playing BG for th first time. :)
  • KilivitzKilivitz Member Posts: 1,459
    That's exactly why!
