Trolling is not something I associate with Portal of Evil. Granted, I stopped posting there a decade ago, but the only troll I can remember was Sociopath and he wasn't exactly a master of the craft.

How many people were maintaining a false persona for the purpose of inciting a reaction out of people on POE from 2000 - 2002? Being a douchebag doesn't automatically make someone a troll.

Cowards! The problem with bullies is that they are not fearless and bold enough! Go to their house and kill their dog if you hate them so much!
