[RANT] [OT]
What is it with you people in Trouts and Trolls!!???

Anybody in here ever watched the movie "Office Space"? Well it's a great movie and there's this one scene where this woman who answer's the phone all day every day as her main job and she always answers it the SAME way. She says, "???somthing??? Speaking! "JUST a moMENT".

You know how annoying that is in the movie if you've seen it! Now, here's what I need some of yall to do. Capture that audio clip and put it together as an ongoing GIF and play it constantly to yourself for about 5 hours! When your finished, you will then have obtained the concept of HOW FLIPPIN ANNOYING THE USE OF THE WORD "TROUT" AND "TROLL" are!!! dang This is not World of Warcraft!! There are no Trolls!! Not even Ogres!!...ok and for the record MGP doesn't count!

IMO the words "trout" and "troll" are about as nerdy as the words "R tard" and "uber"! They're over used and bloody annoying!

the only word or acronym that this site has invented that "actually" made me laugh "out loud" was Mr. Grumpy Pants! That's about it!

No idea about Trout, but the term Troll has been around the internet for ages, it's too widely used here in my opinion.

That repetitive message is what trout topics sound like to us. When someone creates a trout topic on purpose, they are being a troll. It's that simple, there's a lot of it going on, so deal with it.
By the way (since the use of the acronym BTW would probably piss you off - oops, I used it anyway!), "troll" is more derived from the form of fishing called trolling, where you dangle bait and run it past the fish in hopes they'll bite. This is the primary and original method forum 'trolls' are known for. They bait with stupidity to get an argument or derision. It's all about the negative attention, and if you understand anything about human behavior you know why and how that comes about.

You do realize by both putting this topic on this board instead of the new OT board, you've become a trout. By raising a stink and inciting argument you've also basically become a troll.
Congratulations.

Well, I believe I have been trouted once. And it did bother me a bit at the time but you have to remember there is a search function. We just have to use it. And if you're going to pick fights over a little constructive criticism, your life is going to be hard.

Plus put yourself in the place of everyone else reading. I personally hate going through 10+ of the same type of thread. It's a waste of time. We all have to play nice until the world ends in 12 days. Very Happy [/i]

Ok, got a couple things to say to this r tard.

1. Euchre has it right: I've seen troll before of several forums.

2. R tard and uber are not nerdy words, because there are far more nerdy words (none of which I could remember at this moment.)

3.What in David Letterman's beard is that ridiculous display of leet speak?

Looks like you came up with the words, and had a 4 year old press random buttons.

4. I'm sorry, but I do not have the time, patience, or sanity to listen to a GIF for 1 hour, let alone 5.

Sorry if this offends you in anyway, but your post pissed me off, because then you're sounding like every other jackass who doesn't understand the internet to appreciate it

My two cents.

I'm not picking a fight first off, second the leet came in because I was afraid of letting my tongue go. The last time I said fuck, shit, bitch, and a few other things, I got banned from a forum so ....yea. Sorry, I've never seen the word Troll or Trout presented in any other forum besides this one. I was a member of 4 or 5 different cloverfield based forums and clubcav.com (cavalier owners), and no other forum ever used those two words. Sorry if I pissed you off but the two words ARE rediculously over used and annoying as fucking hell. Why in the hell would I use "search" to post this thread? I know what the two words meant, I just wanted to voice my opinion....this is the U.S. right??
