... and he wouldn't feel the need to tell himself.

NO ONE thinks you're smart except you and your mommy... troll.

AlleyCat is one of the several people who dominate Rudy on a daily basis, keeping their bootheels on his little pencil neck to 
the amusement of all.

Narcissists appear ridiculously stupid because of their bloated egos that cannot be surpassed by anything but themselves.

With a narcissist however, they will not care about consequences as their main focus is to IMPRESS not to execute. They'll wing 
it.

Narcissists automatically get into the mode of having to "convince" people for gratification of their low self-worth that they 
are stronger, braver and more beautiful than we know them to be! Remember, I said convince, and not "prove".

Rudy can't convince ANYONE he's anything other than a Usenet troll.

Internet Trolls Are Narcissists, Psychopaths And Sadists, Says Study

Hartung, and the other conservatives here, aren't trolls... it's you and your fella left wingers.

In an issue of Personality and Individual Differences, a study was published that confirms what we all suspected:

INTERNET TROLLS ARE HORRIBLE PEOPLE. 

Let's start by getting our definitions straight. They are both similar, but they do have their differences.

An Internet troll is someone who comes into a discussion and posts comments designed to upset or disrupt the conversation.

=====

(irony snipped)

"Fuck off, David. Just fuck off with your stupid posts. You've already 
admitted you don't post to stimulate debate. Fuck off with your stupid fucking fake questions." 

There was NO reason to post this, unless you are a troll.

=====

Often, in fact, it seems like there is no real purpose behind their comments except to upset everyone else involved.

(BINGO!)

Trolls will lie, exaggerate, and offend to get a response.

DING DING DING... we have a winner.

They will say and do almost anything to get you as angry as they are. A response is what both are looking for.

What kind of person would do this and is there a method for how to stop internet trolls? Some Canadian researchers decided to 
find out.

They conducted two online studies with over 1,200 people, giving personality tests to each subject along with a survey about 
their Internet commenting behavior. They were looking for evidence that linked trolling with the "Dark Tetrad" of personality 
traits: narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and sadism. 

They found that Dark Tetrad scores were highest among people who said trolling was their favorite Internet activity. To get an 
idea of how much more prevalent these traits were among Internet trolls, see this figure from the paper.

Look at how low the Dark Tetrad scores are for everyone except the trolls! Their scores for all four traits soar on the chart. 
The relationship between trolling and the Dark Tetrad is so significant that the authors write in their paper: "...the 
associations between sadism and GAIT (Global Assessment of Internet Trolling) scores were so strong that it might be said that 
online trolls are prototypical everyday sadists."

Trolls truly enjoy making you feel bad. To quote the authors once more (because this is a truly quotable article), "Both trolls 
and sadists feel sadistic glee at the distress of others. Sadists just want to have fun... and the Internet is their playground!"

So, if you want to know how to stop Internet trolls, which may seem futile, but sometimes you have to do the hard work for the 
sake of your mental health, then the next time you encounter one online, remember:

These trolls are some truly difficult people.

It is your suffering that brings them pleasure, so the best thing you can do is ignore them. 

The only reason that they seem so vile is because a part of themselves is hurting, and it has absolutely nothing to do with you.

Knew it.
