If you made it up it may be worth reading, but all you do it trawl the web to find stuff to copy/paste in here. It's flaccid, boring and poor forum etiquette. Punto.

100+ Internet Troll Types & Troll Resources

100+ Internet Troll Types & Troll Resources

"Trollosphere:
The Trollosphere is the total of Internet Trolls using cyberspace and digital devices to provoke, judge and defame others. Trollosphere represents all troll typologies, their jargon and cyber attack patterns. Just as the Blogosphere is segmented into blogger niches, the Trollosphere has targets and online environments favored by Trolls. Trollosphere also includes the thoughts, feelings and perceptions online users’ experience, when alone or in groups, who share similar Troll definitions.

iPredator’s Internet Troll Profile:

Most often gender male.

•Spends long periods of time online and likely internet addicted or at risk for becoming internet dependent.

•Meets all three criteria for being categorized as an iPredator.

•A self-awareness of causing harm to others, directly or indirectly, using ICT.

•The usage of ICT to obtain, tamper with, exchange and deliver harmful information.

•A general understanding of Cyberstealth used to engage in criminal or deviant activities or to profile, identify, locate, stalk and engage a target.

•Tends to have few offline friends and online friends often engage in the same type of online harassment.

Highly susceptible to the states of de-individuation and the disinhibition effect experienced, to some degree, by all online users. For Internet Trolls, these states are highly influential in their online lives.

They are psychopathological in experiencing power and control online fueled by their offline reality of being insignificant, angry and alone.

•The severity and magnitude of psychological abuse they inflict upon their online targets is directly correlated to their probability of suffering from an Axis I, Axis II or Dual Diagnose mental illness.

When online, show a lack of empathy, have minimal capacity to experience shame or guilt and behaves with callousness and a grandiose sense of self.

From a psychodynamic standpoint, Internet Trolls create and sustain an intra-psychic myth of power, greatness and domination. Although all humanity is guided through life by internal myths and archetypes, the Internet Troll’s myths and archetypes are highly distorted.

They are developmentally immature, tend to be chronically isolated and have had minimal to no intimate relationships."

Hopefully, we let this boring subject die. Bad enough to have trolls at all, but talking about trolls is even more tedious. If I had a "close thread" button I'd use it.

Internet Troll Typologies
(List Updated & Re-Published Regularly)

“I didn’t read what you said but here’s what I think” Troll. “He doesn’t read your piece. He doesn’t need to: he knows what he thinks already and what he knows is, he hates everything you stand for and you’re wrong and he’s going to say so, every column you write, regardless of the fact that the paucity of recommends he gets prove him to be a total Billy No Mates.” James Delingpole (2011)

“This Is My CAUSE” Internet Troll (Internet Mole Person): “Person who defines themselves solely by their “cause,” and spends countless hours blathering on and on about it to anyone on The Twitter, The Facebook and blogs. They have a Google search set and hours each day to devote to blogs and they do that to leave comments about their “cause.” Which no one cares that much about. Or is a one-sided thing and almost always involves emotional manipulation and impassioned catch-phrases to get the very annoying point across.” (The Band Back Together Project)

“WON’T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN” Pseudo-Concern Trolls: “These Internet Trolls are precisely as you’d imagine. They take any instance where there might be an issue of perceived impropriety and exploit it.” (The Band Back Together Project)

Amazon Trolls: “Posts something negative, be it about the story, the writing or even the grammar, whilst the natural instinct is to respond, it is imperative that you avoid the temptation and instead, bite the bullet and take it on the chin. If you don’t, you potentially open yourself up to a world of pain. For the forums are also home to all kinds of trolls. And literary trolls like nothing than a sniff of a stroppy author. As a result, before you know it you could find yourself under attack and those attacks can be very personal indeed. They can also be relentless as literary trolls hunt in packs.” Doug Brimson, (2013)

Back-Stalker: “This Internet Troll will pour through your archives until he or she finds something you wrote that contradicts something you’ve written more recently. It will be pointed out. Every time you write anything.” (The Band Back Together Project)

Baiter: “A special place in hell could be reserved for The Baiter. This troll has a serious case of superiority, and always an ulterior motive. Whether posting one-off comments or engaging in back-and-forth, the Baiter always wants to bring the discussion back to their wheelhouse. A Political Baiter, such as, will always turn the discussion back to politics, even if the original post is about pandas or the trials of wearing socks with sandals. It could be anything benign, and The Political Baiter will make comments about the “liberal media” or “liberal elite” or “anti-intellectual conservatism” that take the original content to a different (often inappropriate) contextual level.(Criminal Justice Degree Guide)" (to be continued) https://www.ipredator.co/troll/

Surely then, in accordance with your own prouncements, responding to "boring" or "tedious" posters is an option for all RHP members, yes?

If Kewpie wants to suggest that posters like you - and many of your threads - are "boring" and "tedious", isn't this participation by her perfectly fine and a correct exercise of here "privilege" as a member, and don't you welcome her expression of her honest view?

Indeed, don't you think that posters should stand up to "boring" and "tedious" posters and threads if they feel that these things are detrimental to the forum?

Why would you seek to reduce or inhibit - in any way - the participation of those posters who are unimpressed by you and who hanker for something better?

FMF: Grampy Bobby, by your own estimation and proffered definitions, how many different kinds of "Internet Troll" are you?

Are you also, by your own admission, all 100+ types of "troll" that are itemized at the https://www.ipredator.co/troll/ web site you are copy pasting from over and over again?
