Opposed to the primitive and brutal trolling, probing is the martial arts of intellectual
deconstruction of forum and chatroom activities, dominating in three categories:1. Keeping a thread or discussion active as long as possible2. Demonstrating opponents lack of intelligence through the use of irony, parody, sarcasm, information and wit3. Making the whole thing entertaining to read for friends.
When a probing session (that can take up to several weeks) is over, the page or conversation may be
mirrored and published on a website for further public enjoyment.
1. "I have been probing philosophyforum.com
for three days. I think a
solution for the world
hunger problem is now in reach."
2. "In case you are probing us, I must tell you that your scrotum is yet rather tiny. May the battle begin."
