Hiya. Relative noob to this site. Dig it very much; lots of helpful & informative talk. Bass players tend to be deep.
Recently, in one of my first threads, I was quickly referred to as a 'troll' by a fellow bassist/musician.
I don't really care; it's obviously derogatory, intended to let me know I posted something dumb or insulting. I didn't feel that way, but could be wrong.
My interest is in the act of name calling. Why? If my question was "Why do all bassist suck and hate their Mothers?", I could dig it.
Not gonna write a novel.  Just seems a waste of time; don't like a post, ignore it. Like maybe this one.

Most of the people I see calling "troll" are being the trolls.

See. I ridiculed your ignorance, insulted gear I personally hate and added a final jibe. Now that's some high grade trolling.
No it's not you boutique bass owning active bass gear snob: self trolling.
Finally I believe that most trolls on this forum are flat wound fanboy dinosaurs.
Anyhoo, you get the idea. |

You were just saying that you felt most equipment is OK for most gigs, not that everyone who has high end stuff is an idiot, or even insinuating that, for that matter.
