Lightbulb great question~

I find trolls very complex...but they have one ingredient I guess that is
dominant. They need attention...and love to provoke people just to get it.
They also like to bully others. Kids and teens often "troll" for fun. You know like anon phone calls of the past ~~ "Is your refrigerator running? Yes? Well go catch it" ~~~ type stuff. When the older troll comes on, there must be more
complex dynamics driving them.

I hope DocJohn answers. I am really interested in this subject too.

One of the best troll descriptions I found over the years is at The Cure Zone.
You might find it interesting too!
