Include a basic definition of what you consider trolling. Because people seem to deem a huge variety of things trolling. Silly comments are fine but no direct personal insults.

Oh shoot I just realized that trolling is named after fishing trolling (dragging large amounts of bait behind you) and not the troll under the bridge.
kinda both, honestly
we were calling them trolls back in the forum days because they were ugly individuals who loved to jump out of nowhere and yell at you
Yeah I suppose both. But I never realized the second meaning.
Isn’t that worked trawling?
I don’t know, I’m definitely no fisherman. Just reading the Wikipedia page for the word origin: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trolling#Origin_and_etymology
