A troll is someone who posts garbage on the x-wing forums and tries to divide the community. Posts like 'Introducing ... the scrub' and 'Introducing ... The Fly Casual Guy'. The authors clearly do not understand the x-wing community. They are trolling.
Introducing ... the Internet troll
Convenient to declare any opinion you do not agree with to be a troll.
And here I thought the Internet had a good way to demonstrate the use of a Talon Roll.
Does that also include "Introducing ... the Internet troll"?
Every topic has its place. Here's the appropriate place for all of the mentioned threads, including yours:

I am part of X-Wing community and I would be very glad if you would not declare in my name if authors of those topics understands me or not. Because with some of their points I completely agree.
OP, I agree 100%, however, the community as you infer it does not exist anymore and has not for a couple of years now. X-Wing has become a WAAC community empowered by these forums, facebook groups and (especially) podcasts which foster an attitude of "win a big tournament or you're irrelevant". You don't need to go any further than the replies in this thread to see where we are.
These guys are not being trolls, they are exemplifying what we have become.

That is the joke.
Or at least I hope it is.
No trolls in Star Wars, unless George Lucas prequeled them in like Angels.
There are Nerf Herders, and they are the cancer that is killing the game, Not turrets, not bombs, people on the forums crying for nothing but nerfs instead at looking at other ways to fix the broken competitive meta.
