Trolls take lots of forms on the net - there are people who cruise forums just to put up crazy stuff that make no sense..... and there are those who purposely post touchy subjects over and over knowing full well what will happen. Their posts are geared to drama & to incite others. I've seen that kind of person firsthand and it's pretty pitiful.
I guess in three years I've seen it ALL by now lol.... A little drama never hurts a site but ALOT of drama can.
The Tech sites are notorious for having problems with trolls.....and I can remember a COPD forum for the terminally ill having a problem - a bunch of kids got on and posted a bunch of horrible stuff - that site had to close down..... can you imagine making fun of people who are seriously ill ???
