Yeah, I never take worms when harvesting, I have no use for them so picking them up just means i have to delete them later.
Sounds like a successful troll to me. If people follow this line of action, the original troll will still be trolling. This troll is literally getting you to drop everything you're doing, put on pause the in game adventures that you were about to embark on, and follow him around just to spite him. You're not trolling a troll, the original troll is continuing to troll you and you don't even know it.
Why is it trolling?

Granted, I take the worms too, but why would I if I didn't want them?

I ultimately gathered quite a bit of high level mats, using his Rapid Manuever, because the person kept engaging mobs while I took their spoils. So if that's being trolled, then you are right, I got so trolled. Not sure why he didn't just Wayshrine to another part of the map.
And you seem defensive. Sounds like this is your way of farming, too, eh?
Perhaps trolling is the wrong word. Deliberately inconsiderate?

Then Hell should just about have my mansion completed by now... lmaoThere is a special place in hell for people who leave worms/crawlers on nodes
Anyone who doesn't take the worms too is an ass hole, period. The node still appears as if there is a material in it. Put in the 2 seconds of extra effort to delete the worms, don't be an entitled prick.

Naw, I take the worms as well. People are paying ridiculous amounts of cash for worms/crawlers as they try to farm that Perfect Roe.
It's weird, but it's doing wonders for my bank account.
I'm trying to become Tamriel's foremost supplier of Worms and Guts.
Hee - I'm one who will buy bait (despite doing a lot of resource gathering - its guts and worms that don't seem to come as fast as crawlers) because I'm still working on my fishing achievement and let me tell you, that takes a LOT of bait.

Then I realized the value of bait. I'll take the bait if that is all there is in node, but hold no ill will to those who leave them. This cherry-picking behavior has been addressed many times on the forum. The real blame belongs to Zos for the game design. They have made inventory a scarce commodity, so players leave the worm. They also have done nothing to respawn nodes with only bait. I'm just glad they got rid of the food items left in plant nodes, crawfish and that other kind of worm.
I don't buy the "precious inventory space" argument. Up to 200 worms will take up only ONE slot in your inventory. You're saying that to save that ONE slot people are pausing at each node and selectively picking only the materials, leaving the bait behind, instead of just having auto-loot on or pressing one key to loot everything from the node?

I'm going to assume you're not trolling yourself with that question. If you leave worms/crawlers, the node will still be there. Not only will it frustrate a player that tries to harvest it only to find no mats, it also prevents the node from respawning with a fresh stack of mats (and possibly bait).
Besides, it takes more time to selectively take the material and leave the bait than to loot everything in the node, so why do it?
