I've gone to answer 3 questions tonight and they had been deleted by the time I went in....this one is probably gonna be deleted as well! I think we have a troll amongst us. What do you think?

It is a troll!
Why do trolls do it?
I believe that most trolls are sad people, living their lonely lives vicariously through those they see as strong and successful.

Disrupting a stable newsgroup gives the illusion of power, just as for a few, stalking a strong person allows them to think they are strong, too.

For trolls, any response is 'recognition'; they are unable to distinguish between irritation and admiration; their ego grows directly in proportion to the response, regardless of the form or content of that response.

Trolls, rather surprisingly, dispute this, claiming that it's a game or joke; this merely confirms the diagnosis; how sad do you have to be to find such mind-numbingly trivial timewasting to be funny?

A lot of people are saying their questions are being deleted. I believe some people here have too much time on their hands.

They were deleting all the avatar game questions early. They just go in spurts I suppose.

Idk..I asked a question earlier..."Have you looked at nature lately? If not here you go." and it got deleted in under 15 minutes. I even put a link to my pic..it was of 2 female ruby throated hummingbirds. I asked one of my contacts whether she thought it is yahoos way of lining us all out to make us list in more accurate catagories. I did ask in entertainment and music > polls and surveys. Maybe that's why?? Idk. I did relist in another catagory dealing w/photography. We'll see how that goes.

Do the trolls ever go out or do anything else other than report people? You'd think they'd get board of always picking on us!

I think they are cracking down on some of the questions. I went to answer a few and they had been removed .
