This is not too important but this is something that could cause some havoc in the future, and that is calling people "trolls."
Basicly there are 2 kinds of trolls normal trolls, who just spout rnadom bs for fun, which I personally find amusing, and I am one myself sometimes.
But the other kind of trolls are called greifers. these troll have the express pourpus of being a pain in the ass and doing all that is humanly possible to stop anyone else in the world from having fun. These are the kind of trolls that get banned and ruin games for people.
I see a problem in the future of someone saying a troll is a troll, because they are, and taking that as if they are a greifer, and acting as such, so I'm going to deal with this now.

In my opinion they are pretty much the same thing.

Being a prick on the internet because you can. Typically unleashing one or more cynical or sarcastic remarks on an innocent by-stander, because it's the internet and, hey, you can.


Trolling is the act of purposefully antagonizing other people on the internet.

Both describe what you were talking about as both trolling and grieving.
