That's such a weak troll. A much better troll would be like:
1 - I have gererator that produces more electricity than it consumes, and would like people to try it for free.
2 - There is no God, and anyone who says so is an idiot.
3 - I heard that Obama was the anti-christ -- what do you think about that?

Or, basically, any post that's blatantly inflammatory. If it happened in a bar, you might call it "picking a fight." If you were out on a boat, dragging something like this through the water, you might call it "trolling," or perhaps "trawling." I've never understood the difference, honestly, but I'm not a fisherman.

the best trolls happen when you dont know your being toyed with till you have already posted 10 msgs in the thread.. Bonus if they can post in the tone and style of the group.
"For trolls, any response is 'recognition'; they are unable to distinguish between irritation and admiration"

Good troll:

Go into porsche forum and ask them if your _____ brand of car Is faster then an old porsche. Sound like your in a sincere quest for knowledge first. Then after a few msgs make a new post transitioning into saying your _____ will whup butt at the auto-x and your willing to put $500 on the line to prove it. Act totally serious about the bet for a few posts before degrading into "bald old men" insults.

This will result in 5 pages of people wagging there E-dicks in a giant digital peeing contest. Not to mention a giant waist of time for all involved. Fool Proof.
