WidescreenFreak's Journal: And just what do YOU call a "troll"?

I wonder why the hell we even have separate "troll" and "flamebait" options. A "troll" has always been someone who goes into a thread with the purpose of making an inflammatory statement, like going into a widescreen thread and making anti-widescreen comments just to "stir up the nest". How is that not the same as "flamebait?"

Ah, well. I"m just one person, trying to swim in a sea of Slashdot illogic and arrogant shoot-from-the-hipsters.
