Mundane trolling threads

Why do people bother?

I can sort of get that people like creating dramatic situations that generate hundreds of responses. Or have particular things they really want to hear about.

But a thread I posted on about maternity pay which seemed totally innocuous has been pulled because it's by a known troll.

What do people get from trolling about boring shit like this?

I'm genuinely curious.

Because they think they're being clever.

Because the gullible of MN believe them.

If you want a pervy trolling tip though. Post on the sex board. All pervs are allowed on there.

But why wouldn't they if it's just something a bit basic or boring? Like it's not really a gotcha moment?!
