This one time ....... here...

I am now forever ignoring non-tech related threads; however, I will still respond to Corona_Coder's threads because they are tech-related and make me laff. Yes, laff.

I would agree with you, except Corona_Coder is just outright wrong too often to be a "proper troll."

"Intelligent trolling" relies on arguing about things people are passionate about but that are imporrible to conclusively prove. So you get many posts, high emotions, and so on... a few nudges by the troll can keep a thread going for quite a while.

It's not entertaining when the information is incorrect, the opinion is ill-informed, and there is always a conclusive end to the argument. Re-asserting the original opinion in light of a contrary argument can sustain a thread for a while, but (1) not for very long and (2) it's boring to read.
