When you start or reply a thread, it has a list of what you aren't allowed to do.

It says "no trolling"

what does that mean?

hehe great thread isn't it!!

Trolling is the act of letting a troll onto the premises.......

I end up getting accused of trolling when all I'm doing is expressing my opinion. I'm not deliberately trying to upset people, I'm just passionate about some matters.

Basically, if you find there's someone you really really don't like, they're probably a troll.

But if everybody had somebody who they didn't like, that would make every "somebody" a troll...

You get accused of trolling when you start injecting into an unrelated thread sentiments which have already forced two other threads to be locked. Does that sound familiar, jod?

I just started piano lessons a week ago - I'm currently working on Beethoven's Waldstein sonata and I can play all the notes - the rhythm isn't really that important anyway. I think I should ask my teacher if I can do my LRSM diploma next month......is there anyone else on the forums as talented as me?

Wow - superpyroman, that's pretty impressive progress.........I think you should get your teacher to show you how the rhythm goes, but apart from that, why not??? Yes I think you should go for your LRSM ........ and yes, there are a lot of talented people on the forum - I learned the entire Beethoven sonatas in a fortnight (although I really wouldn't like to sound arrogant.......) ......

well I suppose that's alright... I can play all of his symphonys on the piano by pressing notes so quickly and in different rythms that they sound like different instruments. I learnt to do it in a week and only use one hand.
