Trolling or trolling with contempt is a statement made to antagonize individuals, inciting an emotional reaction in the other party. This is in contrast to trolling without contempt, which means that members can troll in a comedic fashion.
For instance, if PatPeter says, "I hate anime", then this is trolling without contempt. However, if he were to say, "Anyone who watches anime is a basement-dwelling no-lifer who should just kill himself", this is trolling with contempt since it directly targets others. Trolling includes but is not limited to:
- Making false allegations towards an individual, |UGA|, or the Constitution.
- Harassing another member.
- Mocking another member.
- Impersonating another member.
- Laughing at another member – Not to be confused: laughing with another member.
- Saying 'shut up' to another member.
- 'umad?' and all variations.
- 'weeaboo', 'wapanese', and all variations.
