Everyone's a troll!

Or so it seems.
Why do I have to explain myself to some of the long-timers in here?
Yes, I'm a newbie, so what?

What is this? Posting privileges based on seniority or the approval of people who joined this forum first?

I used to live in Busan ok?! Came to Seoul about 2 weeks ago and decided to join this forum. My first two weeks in Seoul have been quite, well, let's say filled with adventures beyond expectations and belief. Spin that whichever way you want.

While in Busan I would visit friends in Seoul and Daegu, so yes, I knew a lot about Seoul before I decided to settle down here.

This forum is unique. Or its members I should say. I've never seen a crowd like this before. Spin that whichever way you want as well.

Expecting a troll invasion below.

Don't worry, its just some peoples insecure way of saying

What! You do not agree with me! WaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaH. Why do you have to rain on my "parade". Why do you have to show that all people are not like me, act like me, think like me........ Please, please agree with me......




Instead, they just say TROLL! Rolling Eyes

If that's the case everyone should start saying 'troll' instead of going on that whining spree. It's so much easier to type and less painful to read.

I happen to think that the OP is not a troll. But she is definitely someone's sock.

Just compare writing style and word usage. Eventually the "sock" will make a telling error. The more it's used, the easier it'll be to tell. Wink

I have no idea if you are a troll, and I really don't care. But if you're not a troll, here's my advice: don't sweat it. I got off to a rough start here on Dave's, too...some idiots (out of spite? jealousy? boredom?) accused me of being another former poster, a female (last time I checked, I still had a *beep*) and basically lying about everything I wrote about myself. Some may stalk every post of yours even after you've quit responding to them...until they tire of their own games. Some may even come to like you...or at least respect you enough to leave you alone. And remember this, you don't need to prove anything to anyone. Some of the guys on here would want you to post your photo, passport, address, phone number and a copy of your last paystub before they're satisfied. You don't owe them anything. Tell them to go to hell. Twisted Evil

Trolls are people too. I doubt the whole existence of socks.. We're all socks on this bus.

And if you dont agree with Alyssa and all of her "I hate Korea" rantings then she calls you a Korean.

Akaia, you are not a troll if you are doing what you are supposed to be doing on here, discussion, Alyssa is Daves biggest troll and many of the long timers know this

A troll is someone that post in order to start an argument and not to answer the question or post anything helpful/constructive. People seem to use it to refer to any post that they don't like.

There's a small place where a player can crouch down through a wooden enclosure in de_inferno. I call it the troll's bridge.
