What I mean by A: In the forums I use (World of Tanks, for example), this year a much higher percentage of people know what a troll is, and accept trolling and associated internet misbehavior as normal. While the internet has always been a nasty place (I played Diablo I's multiplayer back in the day, so I know), this year has seen a remarkable acceptance of misbehavior, compared with previous years.

The knowledge and pandemic use of trollfaces on at least some forums is simply an expression of this acceptance.

U Mad?
