Study finds that Internet Trolls are terrible people in real life

Vyralize: A study conducted by University of Manitoba research students Erin E. Buckels, Paul D. Trapnell, and Delroy L. Paulhus has claimed that Internet Trolls exhibit much higher levels of sadism, narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy in real life. These traits are classified as under a category called “Dark Tetrad” traits. They also found a direct correlation between the amount of time they spent making comments on the Internet and between all traits except narcissism.

Well duh. Terrible people are terrible everywhere. They wouldn't be acting like assholes on the web if their lives were good.

And N4G has about 80% of them all signed up as users.

Does this come as a surprise to anyone?

I don't know that people having bad lives is relevant or makes them a troll, not everyone is that way inclined.

Not surprised here at all. If they can be rude online then why wouldn't they do it in real life. Like Robby said, "Well duh. Terrible people are terrible everywhere".

In other news, studies show that dickheads at a mall are also dickheads at an amusement park. Details at 11.

I dont usually comment...but that was hilarious. Hahaha.

Oh course they're rude in real life too.

But I bet they say just a fraction of the tough guy crap they say on the internet.

ex "i kick ur azz!" "If i ever meet u" "U f**king idiot! you spelled this word wrong!"

When there is close to no consequence hiding behind a computer screen with anonymity. People is will voice their crap more openly...whereas in real life people will most likely pussy out cus they're too scared get punched out or something.
