Am I considered a troll. Based on that wiki article, it defines that in some users perspectives, I am. Being spiritual not religious, I am not sure if I contribute the the percentage of "religious" trolls. Although I may contribute. (depends on the semantics)

But as an individual in my specific perception, I would put forth a proposition for everyone in this thread to consider themselves a troll for a moment. Then build a list of their trollish activities. Then as we compile a communal list of trollish activities, the concept could be defined further.

I'll start.

I make claims that are unsupported. (eccept theoretically)
I cause frustration through mispelling. (though not intentional)
I cause frustration through unique formatting (although i feel it is more efficient)
I reply to alot of threads (i have alot to say)
I disagree with postulated concepts (they arn't law yet)
I believe in the etherial (are you experienced)
I sometimes make puns at the wrong time (timing is everything !! [sorry freeztar])

And my breath smells of coffee.

NEXT
