[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]What are your theories about why people so flagrantly troll here?[/quote]

It depends on how you define "troll". That term gets used pretty loosely around here. Some people are simply mentally ill and their behavior here is just a symptom of their illnesses. I sometimes feel like nearly every mentally ill person on the Internet has found their way here. Hence we have the foot fetish poster, the son with his pediatrician poster, and so on. Even "Terp Boy" for whomever remembers him. He seems to be some sort of obsessive compulsive.

Beyond that, I am convinced that some people are addicted to drama. This goes beyond simply being bored. I don't think these folks can live without drama so their posts are simply attempts to get a "hit". But, in addition to these posters there are the ones that are simply bored and trying to entertain themselves.

The mean and angry posters are just mean and angry. They probably can't act that way in real life (or at least not without repurcussions), so they just do it here.
