Trolls Have Personality Disorders

http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and...pathy.html

Anyone read that from last month?

Doesn't shock me at all. Some of the biggest trolls who are banned from HF I completely believe have personality disorders.

The article also seems to say it's about 5% of online users who identify themselves as trolls. Maybe at HF we have a higher percentage than that but even worse the trolls can be very vocal and make it appear as though they are a larger group than they really are.

One thing I really wonder is if trolls know they have a problem or do they believe they are behaving normally?

Fascinating stuff.

When I troll, It's because I need a laugh so I'm desperate for that one good laugh. so yes I believe it's a condition and most trolls know about it because they have the urge to make themselves laugh till they shit themselves but ya I think we need to see shrinks about that issue.

To answer your question, trolls know they're not behaving normally when they're trolling. If a troll thinks he is behaving normally, I'd say he isn't a troll he's just autistic.

I dont have a personality disorder mate, I am a tier 4 master troll.
I think a lot of it is these sheltered heavy internet users are able to express that in trolling. And unlike real life the consequences are super minimal, which just gives them all the more reason to stay online. It makes tons of sense.
I'm pre-sure like 80% of trolls know what they are doing, then you get the weird 20% who actually think what they do is normal. Give or take.
I actually know a guy from school who trolls a lot online, and when thinking about it he's pretty odd. He can't seem to talk to people without twitching or frantically making a sudden movement.
No surprise there.
Most of your members are psychopaths

i can see it already
They probably think they are behaving normally since I have trolls in my class who think they are funny but they are not. But yeah we have more than 5% of trolls here.

They assume the internet provides a barrier between their actions and real world connections.
bullshit seriously doubt that trolls have personality disorders

You know, the typical gore/porn/shit spamming, the 9/11 shit (not teridax cause he's actually good), the illuminati shit, the obama shit. It's played out and people still harp on it every single day just trying to get a reaction. Gives the real jimmie rustlers an even worse name.

M8 please the feminists are trolls and litterary look like trolls 🎉
