What exactly constitutes trolling?

I think I might be doing that on WP without realising, not sure,
at least that is not exactly my intention.



Here is one thought:
I actually don't like the idea of harassing (is that part of trolling?) other sites, like anime, creationists, religous, etc forums,  do some people do that because they don't like the subject there?

if so, what about the Freedom of Speech that has been said a lot here?  Isn't that some kind of a contradiction?

Wondering.

I'm sorry, but you missed the trolling or spamming threads of Atomic Psycho because I deleted them soon after they were posted.  They had absolutely no value that any of us could see.  There were quite a lot of them but they were gibberish words or single words like ATOMICPSYCHO.  To me, that was trolling.

That's too bad. I actually thought leaving up his stupid spam made a statement.

I think those threads had value, or they will go when they end up in his email inbox  >:D

Tell me what statement is made by a whole page of the words ATOMIKPSYCHO or BITCHES, repeated until the maximum limits of the board's format is reached. I think we kept a couple already. How many pages like that do we need to keep for future reference?

It said to me "see how little we care about life's retards? We don't even bother deleting their spam, we just throw it all in a forum that no one ever uses and let people do what they want with it although it was intended to completely screw up the site" twas in spiring

We made that same statement by shuffling all but a few to the recycle bin. Help me to understand why we need more than about three of those threads, please.
Seriously, we voted to remove them and the resulting vote was close to unanimity.
