I am curious why some people become "trolls" on the internet? Why may be the psychology behind trolling. For example; there is a woman who is quite popular on usenet who calls herself Poopie Pants. She calls herself a usenet performance artist and makes some outrageous posts. She also seems to have made up her own language which is a dialect of English. Sometimes flame wars come about from her posting but most of the time she is quite entertaining. What is a usenet performace artist? Is there a difference between that and trolling? --Gerald
