'to leave an insulting or offensive message on the internet in order to upset someone, or to get attention or cause trouble:''
If you just enter a thread and give the verbal 'finger' to someone?
Clearly you are doing it to irritate/upset them.
You find satisfaction in the knowledge that you have irritated someone whom you find irritating.
Why else would you do it?
Sorry man...by definition?
That IS troll behavior.
That is not me judging it...that is the definition.
I appreciate your point, but I don't see it that way.
Flashing my middle finger at them makes me feel better.
I have no idea if they even see it or not.
If they do, I can't imagine that they give too much of a fuck about it.
It's to make me feel better with no considration of them whatsoever.
I constantly unload on PoliTalker whose posts have the effect of trolling on me.
But I know that he/she/it has me on ignore. Thus, it's obviously for my amusement, not his/her/its consternation.
