Found this Kilimanjaro Safaris review on reddit-this person can't be serious.

I plan to write a strongly worded review of the updates to the railroad at Disneyland. It looks like animals have already chewed through the supports, and there doesn't be any effort to fix it. This is totally unsafe and needs to be fixed before this attraction re-opens!

No, I meant in general why do people troll.

Huh? Nobody is trolling. You still don't seem to understand?

Somebody on Reddit (which is not a review site, just a discussion board, like this one) posted a screenshot of an unintentionally humorous review that they found on Yelp (I believe) that a lady had written after misunderstanding an intentional effect of a broken bridge on Kilimanjaro Safaris, and people who are also members of that discussion board began writing their own reviews in response within the same thread that mimicked the found review, but with a purposefully humorous slant.

I'm really not sure who you think is trolling. It's literally the same as how people in this thread are also posting humorous reviews of Disney attractions based on effect misunderstandings. It's not like they're posting these reviews to Yelp or TripAdvisor.

Ha! (Off topic but funny):
Last year when me and my hubs decided to go to Disney, I wanted to ride Splash Mountain. He had never ridden it so I coaxed him into doing so.

Splash Mountain = Splash = Possibly getting wet

He point blank asked me twice, "We won't get wet will we?" (And this was genuine, not sarcasm).I seriously couldn't help myself and replied with, "Nah".
Well, we sat in the front row and he was on the side of the waterfall that is at the end of the track.
Needless to say we got completely soaked and the queue at the end of the ride was so packed that we got stuck. Where at you ask? The waterfall!! My hubby kept getting splashed!

He had this cute mad look on his drenched face afterward, but loved the ride! Haha!

I understand. I meant people who troll IN GENERAL. How can I be more clear? Drop it already. I don't think anyone here is trolling.

Okay. Well, to be fair - since nobody was ever trolling - you can see how your comment could be misunderstood and didn't really have anything to do with the thread. Clearly I wasn't the only person to misunderstand. My apologies, though.

Yeah, I've had a similar experience with Splash. I heard the woman behind me ask the CM who was loading us, "Is this a water ride, and do we really go over that huge waterfall?". He just said, "Yes, but it's a Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah time!". Then she noticed my already wet shirt (This being my 2nd consecutive time on Splash), and shouted at the CM, "YOU DO GET WET!" By then we were already rolling, and asked me, "Have you been on this yet?" My answer was, "Yeah. That's how I got so wet"

Yes, I get how my post was originally misunderstood, but I was already "scolded" about it and that's what led to my grouchy reply to you. Sorry about that. I was frustrated.

Lol it's okay! I don't think anybody was scolding you, though. I think we both just genuinely thought that you thought that these reviews were being posted on actual review sites so we just wanted to clear it up. I don't want you to take what I said the wrong way, as often happens on the internet. :)
