Best watch you own, and the worst you own

Trolling can be fun. There's no doubt trolls are motivated partially by self amusement. Sometimes it's a game to see how much you can get away with for how long; other times a troll feels they were wronged and wants to get even with their perceived harasser. Maybe they believe the partial anonymity of the internet makes it okay.

As far as I know, the only thing a troll receives for trolling is a giggle or two and some attention. If there are paying positions available, I'd have applied already!

Excuse my ignorance of internet phenomenon chaps, but can somebody please explain to me what an 'on-line troll's' motive is?
Are they:
1) Just bored computer obsessed 'oddbods' with 'Fakk all' better to do?
2) Not very nice people?
3) Actually getting something in return for their efforts?

I've never really given this much thought and have no idea???😕

Trolls also can sometimes be good fun.

Try a google search for “Ken M”, sit back and enjoy the majesty.

Seriously, this guy played it perfectly with the timing (each thread was days apart) and nonchalance (trying not to make the connection of the 3 threads obvious). Master Troll right there!

Did someone tell him to troll off already? Am I too late for the party?

Yeah, it was over before it really got started. 🙁 If you drove a more reliable car than that little 60's thing in your avatar, you might have made it to this thread in time for a little banter with RolexPoser.
