If they're narcissists, then yes, because a narcissist is perfect, and each of his traits is a gift to humanity Yes, but some trolling is a genuine gift to humanity. I've seen (and executed) some truly celestial-- even operatic-- trolls. By the way, I can't stand online bullies. Those assholes ruined trolling IMO. Trolling was awesome when what happened online, stayed online and no one ever tried to fuck with another's "IRL" existence. The problem is that, while the skilled trolls tended to stay white/gray hat-- shit, some have said that I'm an extremely-white-hat troll-- the unskilled trolls had nothing other than evil to distinguish themselves. Eventually it became repulsive.

I'm not really into trolling but I will admit it's funny too see somebody who takes themselves way too seriously getting strung along. Particularly if I find their opinions disagreeable. I don't really find it that interesting when people just try to troll and cause havoc for absolutely no reason at all other than their own amusement. There should be an appropriate target who has been flapping their gums and needs to be brought down a peg.

  My most epic troll remains stringing two strident Christians along for a few days by letting them believe they had converted me. I lost them when I explained God's will for me was writing a new book in the Bible. Didn't even get a response after that one. :( I may have short-circuited their doctrine. Pretty sure I managed to do the whole thing without explicitly lying, either.

Nowadays people see something they don't like on Twitter and call the police, it's insane. Of course it's on the cops themselves too for wasting their time and taxpayer's money on it. The correct response is as it always have been, drop 'em in a killfile and move on with your life. Actually using the word "killfile" probably puts you on a terrorist watchlist.
