Trolling
The point being to piss off whoever your target is under any circumstances.
Why is trolling so prevalent on the internet, and specifically, message boards like this one?
I've met one troll in person, in real life, which was in middle school, age 12-14. What is it about the internet, about anonymous human interaction, that seems to breed this type of person?
What do you think about trolling? Good, bad, indifferent? What about the laws that have been proposed due to 'trolling'? Do you think they limit free speech?
Finally, what is the purpose of a troll?
If you're a troll or you enjoy trolling, what do you find to be the most appealing aspect of it? Why do you do it? What is the point?

Not true, trolls existed way before the internet. It's just assholes called them stalkers.
I find it quite the opposite. Those who spend too much time online don't breed.I've met one troll in person, in real life, which was in middle school, age 12-14. What is it about the internet, about anonymous human interaction, that seems to breed this type of person?
I say bring it on! They haven't come up with a new noun to go to war against in quite some time. It has been quite boring.What do you think about trolling? Good, bad, indifferent? What about the laws that have been proposed due to 'trolling'? Do you think they limit free speech?
I found this video which explains it quite well.Finally, what is the purpose of a troll?

Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance.If we extend it even to those who are intolerant,if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant,then the tolerant will be destroyed,tolerance with them.
I Couldn't sleep I've been trying to since my last post in "that other thread"
My brain is thinking about rolling one up , but my body won't let me do it lol
"emotional luggage, nothin of it, i dont check bags, i just carry on, leave that bullshit in the past"
Man, I'm sorry. I hate trying to go to sleep, only to get up an hour or two later out of frustration from not being able to sleep.

Some trolls are funny some aren't its as simple as that. They're here to stay cause its legal. Until they put a ban on trolling ,trolling is just something were gonna have to deal with. Sadly.
Ignoring a troll is the only way to kill them

Someone else mentioned on a diff thread that hey used to do it on online games without even realizing it was trolling (many years ago). It occured to me that a friend of mine used to do this alot, but less and less as he got older. He found it hilarious when people got upset, and it would make him troll even harder. He isnt a bad person, but he does have a particuarly sick sense of humour and a few issues going on. I think most trolls are probably very unhappy people.
