So we might all get on the same page, here is a list of "troll definitions."
1) a newsgroup post that is deliberately incorrect, intended to provoke readers; or a person who makes such a post 2) From the fishing term. As a noun, synonymous with flamebait. As a verb, to post controversial or provocative messages in a deliberate attempt to provoke flames. 3) to fish with a bait or lure trailed on a line behind a slowly moving boat. 4) From the fishing term. As a noun, synonymous with flamebait. As a verb, to post controversial or provocative messages in a deliberate attempt to provoke flames. 5) This is the Scandanavian term for elf. Sometimes they are described as being hairy and ugly, although they are able to change their shape into anything they please. They are said to have lots of treasure, and live in beautiful palaces. 6) SCA term for gatekeeper or door warden at a feast or other event. This name has no historical basis. "Porter" was atypical medieval name for this job. 7) a race of giants. They appear in various Northern mythologies. In Norse mythology Trolls are represented as a type of goblin. I assume you are meaning definition 1) as your definition of me being a "troll." Do you feel anyone opening a discussion is a troll? Is there always a "troll" at the center of every discussion? Is the only discussion without a "troll" one where no one has made a statement to open it--and therefore--it is really a "silent discussion?" Is a "troll'less discussion" one where everyone agrees with you? Your accusing me of being a "troll" is, in my opinion, really "character assassination" on your part--although you cloak this knife in velvet, the gleem of its' blade is still seen...
