So, what exactly is "trolling"?

i received 2 infraction points yesterday because someone asked: "who is this guy" and i responded with: " ... none of your business"

why is this trolling? i noticed a lot of threads where the thread goes off topic. i didnt realize that i was expected to introduce myself even though it really is no one's business. why does it matter who i am?

help me out

people will get the wrong impression of you. Sounds like you came in that thread to start bashing. (what trolls do. They come in a forum and start bashing people and things)
Play nice.
Come off strong like that and you're going to be called a troll.

when you register, and your first posts are purposely being an idiot in our important subject threads, it's pretty obvious that we don't need the crap you posted.

go back and read your first posts. don't tell me that you were being a "cool guy"

just admit to it

I prefer to answer that question with a warning: This isnt NASIOC. think before you speak here, and everything will be gravy. Dont think, point all over the place.
I've seen them come and go, dont have it happen to you
