Nah, troll is often used as a verb in internet slang, such as "trolling" forums, which is what he is saying Shiro does.

Can a Mod look at all these insults directed at me please?
Jack2005-03-18 22:55:59
Do you deliberately try and infuriate people into insulting you, or is it just an unfortunate side effect of your sub-standard intellect?

No insults: I'm honestly interested, here.

Ghost should go through walls, should make you be able to possess other people, walk above water, walk through all kinds of people, and whenever you say "Boo" send everyone else running with panic and paralsysis.
Erion2005-03-18 22:59:24
I imagine they are, but you're opening yourself up to them by complaining about it.

Aside from that, troll IS a verb. It's when a deep-sea fisherman drags his lines behind his boat while moving at "trolling" speeds, which are generally lower than 20 or so miles an hour. It's so the big fish see it and bite. happy.gif

I think that's where the term came from, IE running through the forums trying to get attention.

How do you run if you're paralysed? biggrin.gif

Ghostly powers. You are too scared to control your body properly. Your body seems to take a life of it's own and start running all over the place, without allowing you to do nothing more other than stand and scream in your fear and helplessness.

Whatever, I brought an idea about ghost, and I was insulted for no reaosn. *Shrug* When you ghost, and return.. you should lose physical defenses

Tell me why.

If you give one good reason, I will agree with you and defend your opinion to the death. If not, I'll hurl abuse at you.

The bait is cast...

Its simple, using ghost casts you from your mortal body to become a spirit. As a spirit, you can't do anything physical like touch or attack someone. When you return to your mortal body, the physical defense should be stripped away the point you turned ghost.

When you tumble, there's a chance you lose some phyiscal defenses.
Shiri2005-03-18 23:30:49
...Erion, are you sure that isn't "trawl", not "troll"?

Just like any physical affliction shouldn't affect ghost and when you return to your mortal body, the physical afflictions should be stripped away.
And, when you turn ghost, you should drop everything from your inventory, pack, all your jewelry and clothes. wink.gif

Yes that is the proper word Shiri, but it mutated from that into trolling meaning the same thing, but through forums. user posted image

... Realisticness is not a good argument for demanding a skill to be downgraded. By your argument I could demand skills like teleportation or nature flow leave all your items and clothes behind. Will it be implemented? No, because it's downright friggin' stupid.

*bow*

There are no Mods. See, that's me theory on god. You're still breathing, so God doesn't exist. Mods aren't stopping people from insulting, thus, they do not exist.

Yeah make ectoplasm Lich, putre and Contagion the only good Necromancy abilties!
