But despite my poor mythological knowledge, I think Internet trolls are characterized not just by being useless, but also by being intentionally disruptive, and on that basis I think no one in this thread (either as participant or topic) and including you, is acting like a troll. There are surely some participants which are partially unproductive or counter-productive, but no one had accused anyone of bad faith so far.
