|    trolling and baiting    |

      From: jecorbett4@gmail.com              In some of my earliest forays into online discussion groups, I discovered the       practice of baiting, a favorite tactic of the troll. The subject of the       discussion       group was college football and I learned there were contributors to the forum       who get their jollies out of making obviously false statements and seeing how       long they could get someone to continue to dispute their false claim. It's       pretty pathetic when you think about it. Obviously, such people need to get a       life. We have seen this tactic used quite a lot, mostly by one contributor who       doesn't need to be named. We all know who it is.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
