- Making provocative posts.
- Making posts that are unrelated / irrelevant to the thread or conversation subject.
- Disrupting normal discussion.
Repeatedly doing any of the above is trolling, in our view. Yes, all people "troll" to one degree or another, but the point is, the rule applies to people who do it repeatedly. Making a few provocative posts isn't trolling; making provocative posts regularly is.
What is wrong with being provocative , Tib ?
How do you define provocative ?
How do you define disrupting discussion?
How do you define irrelevancy or unrelatedness to subject?
