Trolling. Defined by UD as “Being annoying on the internet because you can.”
How To Troll In BGs
Step One: Pick out one Target.
Step Two: Do everything in your power to kill that target.
Step Three: Repeatedly kill target. Don’t stop for anything.
Step Four: No mercy. No remorse.
The Art of Trolling: Part One.
Bonus points if the victim is undergeared/balance druid.
Okay, watching Tapington at work is really fun! I also think it’s interesting how many crits happened right on the beat of the soundtrack : )
I also enjoyed the warning to the crazy Dubstep editing.
Haha, I thought since it’s a parody and all, why not put the worst music type for PvP movies, in the pvp movies. Dubstep is always a bad choice for warcraft movies (I love the genre though, don’t get me wrong) but it’s almost impossible to sync and edit to the drops/beats within each song.
You know that each time after he died he was complaining about hunters being so OP.
I hate to say it, and I can’t explain why I do it but when I play my non-hunter alts, I do this to enemy hunters.
In this past weekends SotA I used my DK to Chains of Ice various kitty druids. Just constantly slowing them but never really attacking them. It was fun to watch them get completely frustrated and leave the demo to attack me. So much fun.
I have been doing this for years, call me sadistic. Thank you for giving it an official title!
Love your work Mr Tapington
Only because I know from experience that the questions are coming, you might want to post the name and band of that first song. It’s catchy enough that I’m surprised no one’s asked yet.
Good stuff. Hunters as trolls. Heh.
Undergeared frostmages… so much fun!
Great work Tap. What is the name of the add-on that moved the players health bar / mana bar over their head?

I believe I was either used the “Neon” or “Grey” set up, pre-installed in the addon with a few minor tweaks.
The first song is “Ain’t Nothing Wrong With That” by Robert Randolph and the Family Band.
Tapington – I love you.
How catchy is this song!? In fact, it’s so catchy, that without ANY editing or 3rd party programs, the shots from my hunter just MAGICALLY decided to crit to the beat of the song I was ACTUALLY playing at the time.
That dubstep part really made my day! I laughed so hard ^_^
So sitting on my tank (i know, sorry) so i’m waiting for LFR queue to pop,
Alt tab, lets watch whu videos….. Watched Tap’s video, was soooo inspired, /camp log hunter lets go pvp like Tap
YAY!!!! for whu inspirational videos!
UPDATE!!!!! ok…. so my 360 ilvl pve gear attempt at trolling people hasn’t quiet worked according to plan. I look like the rogue in the video… not the awesomesauce hunter. Fear not, i have a plan, watch the video again, get motivated and try again
LMAO!!! I love it. And I’m sorry to tell you – but if it’s a rogue – it’s not trolling. Rogues must be wiped from the face of the earth!
So Tap… Shadow Word: Dance fan? :>
Remember first hearing this song in SW:Dance 3 and I see some similarities in editing
Nice one
SW:Dance 3 was a fantastic movie, but I can’t really say there’s that much similarity between my video and his outside of song choice. His movie has WAYYY better editing.
One of the greatest pvp videos I have ever seen!
Step 5: Post the video to Vimeo.
You’re the reason for the next hunter PvP nerf.
What is the addon that shows CCs your are in right in the middle of the screen?

At least that troll Duke isn’t around. Did you permaban him Frost? I couldn’t read a single one of his posts and when people asked him to back them up with screenshots or armory links, he refuses because they’re his “secrets”. Ah hilarious…
LOL at “Erm, this is the part where you run away.” Tapington, I just about fell out of my chair laughing cause I just did the same thing to a ret pally earlier today. This is definitely one of the funniest videos I’ve seen in a while. Tapington 6 – 0 Dubstep rogue is definitely going down as a classic. Too bad we can’t macro in those messages to our kill shots so the trolled rogue can understand.
Hey man, glad you enjoyed the video as much as I did making it. Turns out your idea also made it to part 4 of the beginner’s guide.
thanks for your support, Pepprdgefarm.
awesome Tap… Making rouges bleed from.. well you know
word is… Even Shakira is into Skrillex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnjba-kP4Kc
