Trolling permits the fisherman to cover a wide area, making it the method of choice among sport anglers in pursuit of such highly mobile species as walleye and muskellunge (muskie) in large freshwater lakes and rivers. Trolling for sport is usually done at relatively low speeds using strong rods equipped with stout lines and heavy reels. The fisherman sits facing the stern, sometimes in a specially equipped fighting chair. Troll lines are also used by trawler fishermen for commercial catches, principally salmon and tuna.

this is the correct usage of the term "troll"

people are "trolling" for a response from people, not being a small green monster that lives under bridges.

Now its more like nasioc in the sense that moderators are required to administer infractions to those that don't adhear to the rules and AUP.

Really all that is required now is be polite to others, and don't post your two cents if it doesn't add benefit to the thread. if you feel the need to post random BS, head on over to our very own OT section. Not as big as Nasioc's of course.

yeah before when alex was running it there were no points

but also if you were being a jack *** it was a troll ban

so i guess in some ways its better some ways worse

but scoob*b was reasonable and we were able to talk it out and no points were given
it was old shcool i club style

Plus, it seems like the definition of "trolling" has changed a bit since then.

Oh well, nothing a lowly "VIP Member" like me can do. Carry on, gentlemen.

We should get ramen again too! I still owe you a bowl!
