I won't pass judgment on them although they can be annoying at times. "We" seem to validate them too often by responding to their posts at all. I don't read too much into it. You can't often know who or what you are dealing with on the Internet.
I like Rick M's post about the OP to this thread. Ironically funny. That brings me to another point. Some people that may have lots of experience and info in our hobby just don't like this medium for self expression and either avoid or don't participate in it. Then they are those that do participate but don't really have the social skills that work best in this environment.
Who knows!

"Then they are those that do participate but don't really have the social skills that work best in this environment."Now that's ironically funny. The most socially adept people I know are politicians, salesmen and other swindlers. And yes these kinds of folks demand a high degree of tact and compliance from others in order to most smoothly work best in this environment. The ego-booster/validater is this type of exploiting troll in it's embryonic stage.
Give me rhythm or give me death!

I was only pondering what I have seen over ten years or so here. I certainly do not think I have the answers if you will but I did post what I have seen often. There is no 100% pro"troll"type in my opinion.
Hey I made a funny

Except that Rick is wrong, you may want to read my response to him.
And then, consider that someone posting a serious topic is ridiculed for doing so. Ironic indeed.
How serious is this? Life changing? Wow, you've got my attention now.
