A troll is someone who will disrupt a newsgroup for no other purpose than disrupting it. Ed Gin is a troll. It matters not whether the troll is spaming or off topic or vulgar or whatever. His messages do not relate to anything that has previously been said on the thread. They are not responsive.
Ed Dolan is not a troll and never has been. His messages are always custom designed for whatever message he is responding to (except in the case of Ed Gin). Time and effort has gone into them. It matters not if the messages are off topic. The critical thing is that they are responsive. They are customized and not just automated [censored].
Ed Gin is a brainless idiot. He has his computer set up to automatically relay messages to the group which are nonsense and never responsive. It is not spam at all like some of you mistakenly think. It is nothing but spiteful trolling. Fabrizzio was not a troll as he was always responsive. Responsiveness, that is how you tell a troll from someone who is not a troll.
