Today Show discusses trolling

[CapnE625]

The guy (or guy) posting this video is a troll... ironic seeing as the video talks about the topic of trolling. Here's some very subltle hints that this person is a troll: making fun of the victim's dad in the way he said "when you get died from disease", calling three guys faggots because of the shirts they wear (Oh Dear God, cotton shirts.... oooohhhh), using the overused 9000 meme... do I even need to go on?! No I don't.

'Tis the season to be trolling, Trololololololololol

[fgironman3]

@outlander271 lol Big Bubba will handle them

[outlander271]

And just for the record, people who are victimised by cyberbullies should not engage in debate with them. Just insult them and tell them to get a life.In England last month a cyberloser was jailed for 18 weeks after posting offensive messages on a Facebook tribute site. He will no doubt be allowed to keep his fancy mobile set for access to the internet while in prison. Let's hope he doesn't drop that thing in the shower block! The sad faggot bitch. Let's hope he has to give the nonces blow jobs.

[rakani79]

@outlander271 Meanwhile in England where they incarcerate people for typing words on the internet......

[outlander271]

@rakani79 LOL!

[elamennopee]

@rakani79 and @outlander271 You might not realize it, but you are both being cyberbullies by using the "f" word (the one against gay people) in your video and your comment. So, I will insult you and tell you to get a life.

[rakani79]

@elamennopee *clutches at his chest*... Oh... the pain... I are so hurt... you wound me deeply. By the way, I think you will find that word is undergoing a shift these days to a less specific connotation. But in the end it's just a word... so harden the fuck up already.

By the way I am bisexual myself, and I will continue to say whatever the hell I want. Oh that's right, I didn't even say it. So don't mention my name in replies that have nothing to do with me you tool. ^_^

[outlander271]

Trolls come in many forms. Some harmless just jerking people about, and then the cyberbullies who engage in really evil stuff. My heart goes out to the family of the unfortunate young lady who committed suicide. But regarding Nikki Catsouras who took her parent's Porsche and killed herself after crashing the car at high speed, I am only grateful that no innocent people were involved. And how come she was allowed to take the car? Did she have permission? Incompetent kid drivers are a PITA.

[ManicTheManic]

why does the media think that ever story that has anything to do with the internet has to be accompanied by fake typing, its so annoying

[mLgChIeF117]

Anyone else want to punch anyone that says "All American..."?

[newfarnley3]

im a troll and we dont do that we just make jokes on our own page normally of people like jade goody on our own page and we dont allow our trolls to do that thats media bullshit any trolls that do that arent trolls they are wierdos we just make jokes about 9'11 ad shit we dont talk to family or freinds on our own pages any personall messaging or shit this is not what trolls do sont belive the media smh

[rakani79]

@newfarnley3 'Your' trolls? Bahahaha right, sure... that doesn't sound mental at all ALLOWING 'your' trolls... who are you? The king of trolls dictating to your peasants what they can and can't do?

[matangaash]

@newfarnley3 you are not a troll. not anymore anyway.

[rewile]

Two types of trolls.

Good Trolls and Bad Trolls, just like there are good people and bad people.

Good Trolls = Annoy people for fun, not aiming to hurt anyones feelings.

Bad Trolls = Do it for feeling more secure and taking their anger on everyone mosly around the internet and aiming to make people upset.

[bryancommisso]

@rewile They're is a fine line that you don't cross, when you cross that line trolling turns into harassment. I consider myself a good troll, I have never hurt somebodies feelings while trolling, and the media acts like all trolls are evil and insecure. People don't realize there is a difference between cyber bullying and trolling. They think all trolls say disrespectful things to make people mad, which is very untrue.

[tigresuanl7882]

hey guys, how's it hanging ??

[vip1691]

@tigresuanl7882 You know bro, from a rope.

[RaitheLiberty]

All these kids killed themselves, maybe they shouldn't have been so stupid?

[tehjefey]

Also: You fucking kidding me? You can never put a stop to trolling, as long as there's a single breath in the human body, Trolls will live on!

[tehjefey]

MATT LAUER CAN SUCK IT!

[DJFrowzy]

Those aren't trolls, they are griefers. A troll is someone who likes to say something that will cause a fight between the troll and the targeted user. A griefer, well obviously causes grief, which is being described here.

[markatben]

Trolling is not about making families feel terrible, or pushing kids into suicide, or doing anything even remotely as horrible as the things discussed in the video. Trolling is supposed to be a game, where you poke fun at someone; "Troll" them; and then they poke back. If one side does not have a witty comeback to the previous troll, the other side has lost. Its supposed to be fun, and funny. THIS is not trolling, this is just being aweful

[markatben]

@markatben Awful**

And people are retarded the most mean-spirited trolling is not ammoral it is a fucking service to society. Right now in our human evolution with so many bullshit lawsuits and what not we have 99% of the population catering to the softest weakest most sensitive 1% and we are told if anybody is offended they have the right to be and you're wrong for offending them when what they need to do is man the fuck up and stop shitting on the majority. If they kill themselves good another one weeded out.

[Midnighter169]

we all realise that they chose to care about the trolls and the bullies right? its their fault as much as the the trolls and bullies besides im sure the only reason the family's making such a big deal out of it is because they naturally want to cast the blame on someone

[plukye]

Hahaha this reminds me that little slut caylee anthony, another whore that goes straight to hell

[jakash3]

"It's now a felony"

"Google your kids, always know where they are...monitor these pages, get your kids' passwords"

[Mkfan0921]

@jakash3 u mad bro?

[ga20065]

The best thing about trolling is that people are never going to stop and there's nothing anyone can do about it. The internet's a cruel place, if you cant take it dont log on.

[plukye]

No one deserves that, except that crackhead slut

[plukye]

She wuz beatiful, after the accident of course

[MrBrightside391]

Give a person bs response on yahoo answers is trolling. This is being abully

[deadmanshand2010]

[Nvidiaguides]

There is a difference between trolling and bullying. Trolling is when you use subtle remarks to annoy people for lulz or be really obtuse and use grammatically incorrect paragraphs to post "G0D DUSN't EXisT11ONE" on Christian forums. It is making funny Memes. This, on the other hand, is not trolling. It gives trolls bad names and is simply too harsh to be funny. Posting pictures of a mutilated girl to their grieving family is just outrageous and making anyone commit suicide is just wrong.

[shikamaru668]

they are butthurt and its cyber bullying idiots

@SonyCamry Fake and gay, fake and gay. If that's the best objection you and previous commenter can come up with, then you fail. Your mother is fake and gay. *rolls eyes*

[BlockByBlocks]

@rakani79

Way to suck at making a retard look stupid!

[TheBnat1]

Thats cyberbullying not trolling. Fake and gay video.

[Drummer24seven]

@TheBnat1

You are really not proving them wrong with your comment.

[wolfenflautist0994]

@CuTYoUrFaCeOpEN And YOU'RE immature. Come on, guys. This is just backing up what I said before. You're acting like five year-olds. Have you all seriously been reduced to name-calling idiots? I'm sorry, but it's just insane at how childish this is.

[Mewkip]

Trolling? Idiots. This is cyber bullying. There's a fine line between the two, but there's still a difference.

[mewkittyninja]

That isn't trolling, that is being a bully. You stupid adults need to learn to get crap right. :/

[CertifiedGooner729]

Jeff Rossen gives good head.

[longmage4]

I AM THE TROLL MASTER, AND TROLLING AINT INSULTULTING

It's when someone say something smart and you respond a meaningless comment.

its often in games to make people mad becouse of theire short temper by gaming 24/7. trolling aint insulting people, when you are insulting its bullying.

[joeyblondewolf3]

thats not trolling. trolling is more annoying not this

[mrsupersonyc]

OWNED

[YehSmoshWorld]

trololololololololololol

[wolfenflautist0994]

I see trolling and bullying to be in the same category. It gets to be annoying and people can be SO insensitive! You guys need to GROW UP!!! The Internet can be harmful, and trolling can do that. It can harm and even end the life of an unfortunate person, whoever that may be.

[rakani79]

@wolfenflautist0994 Some people need to harden the fuck up. I got trolled a lot years ago but I am still here because I am sane enough to not let the taunts of random strangers on the internet get to me.

[wolfenflautist0994]

@rakani79 It just gets childish and old. These people are acting like 5 year-olds. What makes this so ridiculous is that they get a kick out of this. It's time for them to act their age.

[rakani79]

@wolfenflautist0994 And what makes you the judge of who should act in a given way? Just because you find it unsavoury doesn't make it right or wrong. I will defend this form of free speech like I would any other, even if I didn't approve of it.

[wolfenflautist0994]

@rakani79 It may be free speech, but it harms people. Me? I just get annoyed by it. There's more to life than patronizing someone. No one should have to tolerate such behavior. I have to because I moderate a forum full of trolls. It's sad, and there are people there that are getting fed up with it, too. Now, the question really is, do you approve of this? Do you approve of annoying someone, literally, to death?

[rakani79]

@wolfenflautist0994 I honestly could not care one way or the other. If it amuses me it amuses me what can I say?

[deenman23]

@wolfenflautist0994 trollin and bullying is not the same thing...trollin doesnt have to be ....bad...it can be random ...messing around

[Babkockdood]

Don't they know they're giving the trolls exactly what they want when they go on the Today Show and start bitching about it?

[ccipollini1984]

Trolling is just a part of being online. It sucks, but the fact is the web is still a lawless no man's land. The solution to trolling? Turn off the computer.

[rakani79]

@ccipollini1984 Exactly, the interwebs are like the old west :P

[SNIP3R937]

successful troll is successful

[GunsNRoses606]

Lol.

[Dtsumo]

Trolling is telling inappropriate jokes in a chat room, leaving strange pornography on a random forum, starting flame wars, posting on a dead girl's memorial is another thing entirely, and is even looked down on by anonymous.

[rakani79]

@Dtsumo I am pretty sure most of this IS anonymous. It would be different if it was about a kitteh though.

[TrollNotCyberbully]

this isnt trolling its bullying......fucking idiots

[alexfelldownawell]

this is not trolling, this is bullying. you cant troll people you know. that is bullying! trolling is making parodies, funny pictures, catch fraises such as "ROFLCOPTER" and " you mad bro" and mild homophobia . trolling is a funny thing. talking about dead people and sending pictures of their dead daughter, isnt.

[rakani79]

@alexfelldownawell I am pretty sure you CAN troll people you know actually. Additionally if what you just said is the case then this IS trolling because i suspect about 95% of the comments were from random interwebbers. Come back when you have a decent argument.

[KirbiesandYoshies]

@alexfelldownawell No that's called being a newfag and nobody likes you. Trolling is making a parody? You must be new to the net. No, funny pictures don't make you a troll, nor does spamming an old meme nobody cares about anymore. Trolling is much more vicious than what newfags like you can handle.

[Gamerlives]

@KirbiesandYoshies u should know, your a troll.

[thefernando1]

@alexfelldownawell Obviously incorrect definition of what trolling is... not sure if troll or stupid.

[rakani79]

@MultiMysterymen Actually it was trolling, if someone had done this to her to cause her to an hero, THEN it would have been cyberbullying. Annoying dead ppls memorial pages is a bit of a moot point being that theyr're already dead.

[Ncs666]

Theres a difference between "trolling" and "cyber bullying". This is why adults shouldn't report stories about the internet.

Oh, also trolling isn't new, ever heard of RELIGION?

My guess would be cowardice.

You heartless assholes will never be anything, never accomplish anything, never impact anyone's life in a good way, and nobody will miss you when you die. You are worthless fucking pussies.

Trolling is fun-- but I do draw the line. Posting a silly question on Yahoo answers once in a while that riles a few people up is always a bit funny-- especially since most of the people on YA are either naive soccer moms or idiot teenagers it's easy to provoke a reaction .Trolling on someones memorial page on the other hand is freaking insanity!

Draw the line and respect the deceased!
