From the Urban Dictionary: trolling
Trolling is the act of purposefully antagonizing other people on the internet, generally on message boards.

That’s the theory, and this thread (and unfortunately so many others) are the examples.

But the attacks are much more than that. They are personal. It works both ways.
Go on any birther thread and state to no one in particular:
"I'm not buying this stuff. I think it's useless."
Count the posts you get with name calling and accusations of being an Obama supporter.
How about them apples, huh?

Who knew an obvious low life con artist like “Inspector” Smith could inspire such passions. Particularly since he’s not even a good con artist.

If someone disagrees, fine. But why REPEATEDLY search out those threads in order to fight with someone you disagree with? That's called trolling. And it is spiteful behavior.
After 2 years of attackers trolling the threads and calling people "birthers" and telling them they are no better than truthers you bet the reaction is going to be nasty. But in the summer 2008, those threads were fairly quiet. Then the trolling started. Then being described as no better than truthers. As the attacks became nastier, so did the response. I was on those threads in 2008 and at first we simply shared info. It changed as the election neared.

How is that different from seeing a "RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT!"
thread and clicking on it to make known the fact that you think he's a nut?

I'm sure you don't mean me because I know you, Aurorales, would never, ever stoop to cheap insults.

Probably BECAUSE you disagree. Spoiling for a fight is adult behavior? I believe otherwise.
This is the same exact pattern from the Schiavo threads. There was a crew that trolled them too spoiling for a fight. Most of them have since been banned. Disagreement can be taken too far.
I don't go on Ron Paul threads. People who like him are already aware that others do not.

Keep your blinders on; I know you can’t accept the truth.
You prove that by invoking the left’s favorite word “Paranoia.”

To: DJ MacWoW
And everytime you you attack someone that points out Obama is an ineligible man selected by powerful forces to destroy us, you also defend the destruction by default.
So we all have to choose: Obama or Smith. No third option?

It's kind of like paranormal aficionados. ...
In your mind you equate people who believe in UFO's with people who have read Obama's own words regarding his non-citizen parentage and understand how this disqualifies him as natural-born. That is telling. Thank you for your insight.

You only go on threads about things you agree with?
What the hell fun is that? If that were the case we could
all just paste "Yep, I agree with that" for every post and be done.
