Do you find [this poster](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=852136) to be a troll? I was just wondering what you guys think. I don’t want to jump to any conclusions. ---

I don’t care if that poster was trolling us with those threads or was sincerely asking about conversations he/she was having elsewhere. Either way, it was tiresome. ---

> [@Dewey\_Finn](#): > > I don’t care if that poster was trolling us with those threads or was sincerely asking about conversations he/she was having elsewhere. Either way, it was tiresome. It’s pretty obvious he wasn’t a troll. He was engaged in a discussion at another board where he was trying to play SJW. He posted here to see what responses he should post there. You could tell how he kept demanding answers from us, probably for the questions he was being asked there. You’ll were just doing his homework so to speak. Not good behavior, but not a troll.
