There was this guy named clone1018 who claimed to know Notch in real life. I told him I didn't believe him, and he said next time I visit minecraft.com I will be banned from the entire website, as a way to prove it to me. I know this is total ********, mainly because he said minecraft.com instead of minecraft.net, and because Notch doesn't ban people from visiting his website.
I know he's just a troll, but other people have shared experiences like this, so I figured I might as well too.
Oh, and by the way, I think he owns the servers !Axxim MineCraft City! and !Axxim 24/7 Server!.
This sounds pretty classic, someone is bound to say **** from time to time.
A troll is someone who is militant about an unpopular opinion solely to make others angry. Assuming you're calling Clone a troll, he's just a liar in this situation. If you're accusing Cheese of being a troll, he's just being a slanderer.
No, Peri by popular definition a troll is someone like say you. . . (though your not -mostly-) A troll is one who likes to cause grief unto others with a clever series of remarks to insight either rage or anger. . . A griefer is like a troll they wish to cause discontent and anger an all that.
@op I've had people like that i just normally ignore them or just play along.
Troll is the most over used (incorrectly!) term on the internet. A troll is someone who intends on angering people, it is not someone who says stupid things. I've yet to see troll ever used properly here.
In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

I rarely make things personal unless I'm simultaneously criticizing and giving a bit of praise, because I'm aware that words can hurt and I can at least TRY to make things constructive. You, however, see it fit to call me a troll in a topic where I've done nothing but correct someone on the definition of "troll" and suggest better terms.
In this situation, you're the only one who's insulted anyone, placing YOU closer to your own definition of troll.

THAAAAANK. YOOOOUUUUUU.
No-one in this topic is even close to a troll. Cheese is trying to ruin Clone's reputation, and Clone is trying to make himself more powerful through lies.
Any sufficiently retarded idiot is indistinguishable from a troll.
Do you mean borderline retarded?
Also, I think that's the point. A troll usually IS a sufficiently/borderline retarded idiot.
Any half-decent troll has to be smarter than the people he's baiting.
People can be mean without being ****ing "retarded". Most retarded people have better things to do than sit around on the internet making people angry.

Ah, well.
EDIT: I remember him being extremely laid back and lighthearted. Have you considered that he was joking?

No, sir. He was not joking. I told him to prove it, then he banned me. BANNED ME. I don't think that's a joke.

Quality of output = Skill * Effort
At that point, it doesn't matter, because they're banned either way.
I also like the idea of being "sufficiently retarded".

Edit: I now realize that every other post in this topic is mine. I'll stop that.
Why stop now when you can respond to this question?
Fffffff
