I don't troll. I play video games for fun, not to be a nuisance.
English
-
For some people trolling is fun.
-
It's pretty immature regardless.
-
Dude were playing video games.
-
And there's a difference between good fun and harassment.
-
Not really.
-
Intentionally antagonizing and trying to make someone angry or upset is childish behavior no matter how you spin it. There are better ways to get attention.
-
Dude just like ur name ur a fatass fool
-
It isn't for attention. And who are you to deem it childish? I can just as easily say that it isn't childish.
-
Well what reasonable adult gets gratification from upsetting others? Attempting to upset others for your own gratification is behavior not meant for or fit for the adult world. Maybe our definition of trolling is different
-
Lots of people get gratification from upsetting others. It's actually fairly common.
-
Doesn't make it right or mature lol.
-
Considering sarge part if the human population takes part in it, it means something. Guarantee you that o can find a psychology study that proves me right.

Edited by SoulEatinFool: 8/11/2015 3:57:17 AMDo you have any proof of your claim, or are you basing it off of a forum dominated by teenagers? I'd love to see an empirical peer reviewed article about trolling honestly. Not messing around for fun, but actually trolling.
-
No, I know from reading and learning about other physiological behaviors that many humans are naturally ass holes.
-
I don't see what physiology has to do with behavior.
-
Sorry spelling error... but physiology does have a lot to do with behavior.
-
Interesting, because I can't recall it ever being mentioned in any of my psychology classes.
-
You're telling me that physiology has no affect on one's mind? Did you pass any of your psychology classes?
-
Edited by SoulEatinFool: 8/11/2015 10:29:08 AMBiology or physiology? Because I believe they are different. I've actually passed all of them. I'm saying I've never seen an article citing significant psychological impacts on a person based on their physiology. Unless you're talking about extremes regarding a person's body that are outside of the vast majority of the population or something linked to one's health and well being, idk if I see it. Are you going to post anything to support your claim or just make personal jabs at me?

Over weight people are less likely to be happy. Stuff like that for example. That affects psychology.

Edited by SoulEatinFool: 8/11/2015 4:33:03 AMAnd that is a claim with no citations or empirical evidence, and no data linking it to trolling.
-
I can't find anything about the trolling and I didn't feel like looking for it. The thing I said about the over weight people is a fact though. In fact, just about everything I say is a fact. I have no reason to lie. If I ever for some reason fail to post a citation it's because I had a hard time finding it. But when it comes to the over weight thing, I just don't feel like looking it up. I have nothing to prove (except for my statements...)

[quote]But when it comes to the over weight thing, I just don't feel like looking it up. I have nothing to prove (except for my statements...)[/quote] Honestly that wasn't the sort of physiological influence on behavior I was initially considering, since we were discussing trolling. I have a feeling we simply have different definitions of what trolling is though. [spoiler]I was under the assumption you were referring to things beyond simply being overweight and unhealthy causing you to feel more depressed or anxious when you bring up ones physiology directly affecting their behavior. Maybe I was looking too far into what you were saying when you said physiology has "a lot to do with behavior", or perhaps not far enough depending on whether physiology is an all encompassing term including the entirety of one's biology and brain chemistry. Admittedly I wouldn't know much about biology or physiology and these things work and affect a person's well being, other than being healthy helps make you happy. I'm definitely not a biology major or a premed student. I've studied psychology for a while now, and in my experience we don't really look at ways health affects behavior, but rather look into behavior and cognition themselves and ways that brain chemistry can affect a person.[/spoiler]
