Not really.  Some people Troll with malice, some don't.  It's a fine line.  Dec29....the last sentence is spot on.  

It's happened to me time and time again. Especially when the subject being discussed has something to do with women...

Me too.

This is me, doing the twist! 

I might change it soon, it's making me feel a bit sick.

Agreed. And if not witty...at least curiously odd.  

Or at least hold interest for more than 10 seconds. Tongue Out

Sadly, some guys are sexist & chocolate won't help.  Are we saying more men Troll than women?   'cos that is probably not true .Innocent   Not in the way presented anyway.  We all choose these days, after all.

Surely there is a troll somewhere lurking to cheer up Kayak? *show yourself*

It's a lovely username.

People can be disappointed by trolls though.  They are wasted, do not last & inevitably are displaced.  Just saying.

Kayak, I would use you to get down a river

Yes, I personally believe that everytime anyone comments online, they are trolling.  It's just some users can be QUITE a bit more bitter, angry, and vengeful than others.

I just have a hard time believeing that the OP is as 'innocent'(to things online) as they act.  But, I really don't know. HOWEVER The reality is, if one has used the internet(to interact with others) more than 5 times, they wouldn't have to ask questions like "why yalls uses fake pictures of yall selfses"?  "Why not everyones just takes pictureses of demselfses with dey webcam(for avatarses) and just use dey first and last nameses, like on dey mailboxes"  "Not just some of yallses, but EVEERYONESES"

I am disappointed by the lackluster trolling on this site.  No pride in their work at all.  I might have to come out of retirement and show these kids a thing or two.

They seem to recyle themselves. New members often crop up displaying great navigational skills around chess.com. They hardly play a game but are quick to jump straight back into "action".
