A troll's game is to incite comments and steer discussion solely for their own amusement. This can be as juvenile as someone making inappropriate jokes and simply being insulting, or as sophisticated as someone starting as a seemingly genuine part of a discussion and slowly derailing threads to be all about themselves and whatever they steer it towards.
Excellent!
You have highlighted the key characteristic of entity with dominant frequency towards STS / Separation.
It's not 'wealth' per se that's attractive, it's all about how to be 'superior' / 'winning' thus 'separated' from other self.
If it's put into 'wealth' context is how to be 'superior' to others in terms of 'hoarding wealth', thus "I" can be separated from other "Lower Ranked" self.
Once "What is STS" is understood, for those who are curious, the next is step is to probe the "How" and ultimately the "Why".
Quote:One of the characteristics of trolls is they seldom stop on their own, they continue as long as they get engagement, or get banned. Often they come back with another username and pretend to be a new member before starting all over again.
Yes there is no way to 'stop' other self who have strong wishes to experience something..
They will always 'reincarnate' again and again and again, until a desire came up within them to experience 'something else'.
This is true to any polarities, STS or STO dominant.
Quote:This is not good to allow for any community but especially one like this as it 1) encourages the same person to come back and keep trolling, and 2) encourages other trolls who see the success of one and decide to have fun for themselves. Temporary account locks, and even bans are only a superficial way to stop trolls. The only real way is to not feed them. This is up to the community members to recognize trolling behavior when you see it and disengage.
Good and bad is relative..
For those who think that it is 'bad', then yes just disengage, don't feed.
For those who think that it is 'good', then go, engage...
No right or wrong here, it just a choice...
As everything in this universe is based on 'contrast', through learning "STS" one will also gained more in depth knowledge about it's opposite "STO" and the same mechanism works the other way around.
The STS entity when engaging with STO does have the risk to be 'depolarized' and polarizing more towards STO.
The same risk goes for STO.
