| Topic | what is this ridiculous change to moderation marking |

Trolling is still moddable. Per SBA himself: The most controversial of these changes is likely going to be to "Trolling", which we've renamed and moved away from being a one-click report. The full definition is "Intentionally antagonizes other users by being inflammatory, irrelevant, disruptive, or offensive", but far too many people use it as a catch-all for reporting any message they don't agree with, leading to the most inaccurate reports by far of any available category. ...which, honestly, I can understand. "Trolling" has changed definition over the years. 15-20 years ago, when it first rose to prominence as shorthand, it was basically taking the piss for the lulz, deliberately trying to piss people off just by being intentionally clueless or baiting. These days, trolling usually has a less shit-disturbing, more outright aggressive connotation. It's an old and imprecise term, which is why it got retired. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer. Kill 10 men: You are a monster. Kill 100 men: You are a hero. Kill 10,000 men, you are a conqueror! ... Copied to Clipboard! |
