What k2c has just described in the subject of trolls is the behavior of a sociopath.
The way a sociopath is created: a small child is pampered, coddled or what ever which creates in it an elevated ego and thus a need for attention. And the child is also treated harshly in some manner which teaches the child to do the same to others. These are two necessary and sufficient conditions for creating a sociopath.

Oh dear. That means nearly everyone created during the hippie generation and beyond. At least in the western cultures.

If you go to the profile of the person you consider to be a troll, under their user name you will find a tab called User lists.

open it.

there you will find a button to click to put them on your ignore list. There posts will from there forward be invisble to you and you will continue to have a good day.

Personally I think trolls should be tossed out.
