Is thechessintellect a hero?

Per the definition of hero @ https://www.dictionary.com/browse/hero
Particulary, definition 3; ‘the principal male character in a story, play, film etc.’
As the principal (& only) character in his very own psychodrama, which stars many other versions (male & female, it seems) of his own personality, yes, I think he meets the criterion to be a hero.

By the literary definition, posted above, Hitler was a hero. DT is a hero. In the sacred texts of the western tradition, the Prince of Darkness is a hero. Sometimes literary types use the term antihero for heroes who are generally mundane fools (most of Saul Bellow's central characters, for instance), but they do not apply the term to villains. Villains are heroes.
So, the answer is yes. Trolls are heroes. We don't have to like them, and we should work to exterminate them, but they are heroes nonetheless.

OP......where's your hero now?? Kudos, and a big THANK YOU goes out to whichever Staff person finally put their foot down and said.... "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH"!
Hallelujah! Ron, what do you think is the probability that he'll just show up again under a different name?
Now we'll never know what cream he uses on this hand to make it glitter. Or maybe we're better off not knowing.

IDK Esche. I know I was skirting the edges of a mute by harassing him but my god.......it takes a lot out of you when you chase around people like him and 2Q. I just want to be able to come here and relax like millions of other members......play be the rules......post a few jokes......and then move on.
...Cue the theme tune from Jaws.
He's probably a serial killer.
....and he's going to track down all the haters who are not nice to him.
