I agree, I just thought it defied belief that "the thread we don't mention" generated over 100 posts, many of them along the lines of "let's not encourage this guy by posting". For fucks sake, trolling got its name from a fishing technique where you drag a lure through the water hoping to provoke a reaction from a fish. People like that get a hard-on every time someone reacts. Over 100 reactions, imagine the sexual gratification that resulted. People who respond are effectively tossing the troller off. He may claim he has problems and needs help, but the best way to make him realise that that is not the way to go about it is to ignore the thread.
