Let’s get cracking, people! [/QUOTE] Well, I’m not a plumber, but I’ll do my best! ---

[QUOTE=Colibri] That is, trolling. [/QUOTE] It’s not, you moron, no more than saying, “Fuck you,” is. Trolling involves some type of deceit. ---

[QUOTE=Aeschines] It’s not, you moron, no more than saying, “Fuck you,” is. Trolling involves some type of deceit. [/QUOTE] No, trolling involves posting merely to elicit a reaction. Taunting, as you have admitted doing, is trolling. What you were doing in the other thread was clearly trolling. ---
