You know how people sometimes ask "What sort of idiot do you think I
am??!?", thus falling foul of the sage advice "Never test for an error
condition you don't know how to handle" [1]... well, on this list, it
makes good sense to ask what sort of troll someone is. We even have
Troll Rankings in which there's very definite striations of "useful
contributors who sometimes troll", "useless people who nevertheless
trigger interesting threads", and "utterly useless flamers". Troll
taxonomy is a science we could all benefit from studying...
