So what exactly qualifies as "Trolling" in this game?

Well I've been told that I'm an troll for the way I play : Evidently going anywhere but top in PvP, kill-stealing, and being anti-meta in general is considered trolling...But I feel that because you can't expect someone to play the same way as you do does not make them an troll. I'm not filing the First Amendment excuse yet, but what is wrong with me being an opportunistic player in Summoner's Rift? I jungle with , rarely curse in chat, regularly switch lanes...

Alright fine, here's an recent match....

Now where's the trolling in this match?

1st video:

You offered them first blood. You just stood there, did nothing, and let them have it.
Nothing to do with trolling, but your cs-ing skills sucks.
Why were you bothering bot lane for? Despite them managing to grab a couple of kills, you were just stealing most of their experience & gold gains.

2nd video:

Now you're just taking all of your jungler's monster camps. You even said that you chose mid lane Darius, which is fine, but why dafuq did you ditched mid lane & went off to bother bot/jungle for? Thanks to that, the enemy managed to pushed into your 2nd inner tower.
The fact that I'm literally seeing you taking monsters which Olaf was attacking pretty much shows a red light of trolling.

My conclusion? You're the type of person that I do not want to play with, and you deserve to be reported for your behavior.

Nothing, except this generation seems to want everything the same all the time and or handed to them with no effort, also if anything changes it's the end of the world...

I mean I'm not gonna sit here and watch that match but if you took Darius into the jungle, that's not trolling. Trolling to me is intentionally feeding, building just insanely dumb (AP on Riven, Mana on Lee Sin , etc.), stuff like that.

I've been playing a lot of Jungle Leona lately, so I understand playing off meta.

Trolling: Anything that takes me out of my comfort zone. Please only play who I am accustomed to seeing in the roles in which I am accustomed to seeing them. Thank you, have fun, get rekt scrub.

I think its different for every person. For me trolling is a player going out of the way to make my team intentionally lose the game. For example, I would consider it trolling if a player the entire game right clicks the enemy nexus to see how far they can get. It has happened before.

You are not me. Therefore troll.
