Trolling?

I'm very upset that people would call another editor a troll here. You aren't the first person who this has happened to and you won't be the last, either. When new users try and take on larger roles, they get called names and most of them, unfortunately leave the project. Best, Electriccatfish2 (talk) 10:59, 16 July 2012 (UTC).

It's ironic that the people who show up here to call him a troll are themselves trolls. (✉→BWilkins←✎) 12:11, 16 July 2012 (UTC)

As a minor point of information, what's wrong with being a Troll. Unless it is linked to appearance, it hardly seems pejorative. In any event, I come from the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, and we have a whole population that are colloquially called "trolls" because they 'live beneath the bridge. In any event, it just seems to be a term that is loosely used in Misplaced Pages to describe someone who is a lurker, that is sees what is happening on a page, but doesn't ordinarily intervene. But I digress. Happy editing to you all. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 13:45, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
