Really.
I'd like some trolls to respond to this question.
If you're not, don't post.
If you want to conjecture why they do, start a thread called "why I think Trolls post".
Come on.....
Be brave.
We won't bite you.
:D

I used to troll Christian chat rooms back in my (immature college) mIRC days, and if I suspect they do it (as I did it) to prove superiority, make fun of those members they have opposing views to, and generally just in invoke a reaction. (guess what I wanted to do in person at LEC)
Best reaction. Ignore them. Then it's not fun and they go away...

I was a student, probably insecure in my own right so had a lot of time on my hands, and I guess a "point" to prove. Just don't care anymore... :rolleyes:

No wait, I tell a lie - I always used vlper until I got banned then I'd come back under another name, troll around with a few seemingly supportive posts then start again. Come to think of it... eventually my whole ISP got banned from some chat groups.
Wow, I must've been a real a$$hole!

Glen,
LOL :D
Thanks for coming clean.
How many different names did you use before your ISP got banned?

No idea, 3, 4 maybe? They'd work out who I was pretty quickly by then because I would disrupt the entire "room"
