Not sure if genuine or a troll...

Starting countless threads won't get you much response or respect here, or probably any other forum. Start slow, go read more, and have more faith in your own reasoning abilities.

Posters on GF with a low post count often give that impression, Poe's Law or something more general. In fact it happens so often that it can lead one to paranoid speculations. For instance, a competent programmer could easily script some makeshift persona management software to orchestrate a puppet show of trolls. A tireless, creative, PMSing programmer/puppeteer could write a conversation of many seemingly different personalities and instruct the software to upload it during their daily life. The software would upload each post with a long randomized delay to avoid one of the dumbest giveaways of sockpuppeting: many replies with short time differences. To avoid moderator detection the software could also upload all comments over an anonymizer like TOR or it could even assign one static anonymizer per persona. The programmer might even dare including his public account in the conversations to give them a sense of authenticity.

This paranoid speculation is one extreme possibility in a wide range of possibilities. Most likely it's an example of synchronicity, "the Law of Attraction", or otherwise something in the still poorly-understood class of emergent phenomena. I don't know if the truth of the matter has any bearing on determining an optimal strategic response.

Anyone have further input on GF's trolling phenomenon?

If he is trolling I can't understand why, he PM'd me asking for help with family problems and his father, a gothic short story, and more.

I just can't understand this guy if he is a troll.
