Do we have a term for this on the SDMB? On a newsgroup I used to frequent it was called predator-raptoring. I don’t know why.
The idea is posting something that you know will give some predetermined response. It’s not quite trolling, because you’re not being inflammatory, but you’re still just posting something for the sake of getting some standard reply.
