NRHH: Y'all need to know about them OG trolls?

Here's an example of an OG troll that actually made people laugh using their imagination and didn't rely on bull$#¡t gossip like these wacka$$ new trolls. I'm posting these because not only should you know what good trolling looks like, but because these things are still pretty damn funny 3 years later.

These are some from Postal, probably my favorite troll who had an epic trolling run for about a month in early 2012. He began a story where he was hunting down Cheesy, another OG reg. I can't find the original question, but here are some of the "updates" he posted.

/question/index?qid=20120...

/question/index?qid=20120...

Notice that everyone (including a young kid new to the streets by the name of l.e.b.) found him FUNNY. No playing on people's emotions and making personal remarks. Just weird deranged hilarity.

Here's Postal's retirement question (he never finished his story, sadly):

/question/index?qid=20120...

Again, notice that people were actually sad to see him go. A good troll is a part of the section that keeps it alive; not some douchebag who uses anonymous posting to point out other regs for being who they are. Trolls make the section fun and inviting because you don't know what you're going to see everyday. They should aim to bring people together, not bug them about their eccentricities.

Well that's my spiel about trolling. Thanks if you read.
