Have you tried to be mean or confuse someone online? It's about trying to getting a reaction both good or bad.

[emet_sulk]

Then the purpose of a 'troll' on these networking devices is simply to incite a reaction? Why would--

[ Actually, no. It's not like Hythlodaeus acts that way for a reason either. He thinks? ]

Nevermind. What an odd term to give these sorts of people.

[whatsamada]

I'm not sure who coined the term but that is what trolls are suppose to do.

[Ah the joys of explaining internet culture to a boomer]

I know it's strange to think about but that's what people do online.

'Tis not a behaviour confined to the virtual space, I assure you. You have my thanks - I now have a term with which to describe my friend's behaviour.

Glad I could be of some help!

Just let me know how that bread wrap goes. I am curious to see if he will try it.

[emet_sulk]

Oh I'm sure he will. If there is one thing I can count on, it is that he sees such things as a personal challenge.

[ Now... off he goes to make that bread wrap and force it stuff it down his friend's throat. ]
