Yup. I think we've run into a few of these.

Really interesting and, to be frank, not surprising at all. Thanks for sharing

swell.and not surprised really.
another angle(i dont disagree with above) is many use online forums to vent/relieve stress from work/bad day/etc...If I spent all day at work saying yes to a boss I didnt agree with, I might be a dick when I get home
I always kind of figure that a lot of people are just plain bored and have nothing better to do with themselves. If you want to see real trolling at it's finest just try reading the comments in your local newspapers if they are online. A local small town newspaper brings out all types. Trying read a story at ESPN and read the comments. Football stories are particularly entertaining this time of year.
This documentary on Netflix is pretty interesting on the subject where trolling was done for some good We Are Legion: The Story of the Hacktivists (2012) - IMDb
