I've seen a depressing trend lately of people trying to be trolls. I remember a troll was someone who could lay a bait with such craft that you could swear it was a legitimate thread. Theyed post articles backing up their stance and everyone would bite. Later they would even accuse others of trolling if they disagreed with the op.
Today the inheritors of the flood, now off topic, think that trolling means leaving a hashtag to let everyone know you're trolling. Or spamming people with copypastas and repeating the same internet banter. It just saddens me to see how low the art of trolling has degraded.
Thoughts?

They realized they could no longer hide away in their mothers basements and got jobs. Trolling use to be an art form. Now it's sad.
