I agree with what you say regarding psychopaths. They are predators born without conscience. No doubt, many of these people troll the web, but I am dubious that all trolls are psychopaths. I also agree with you that the concept of "feeding" trolls is often accurate in its dynamic; with starving the troll often convincing him to leave the scene. The thing is, it is uncivil to call someone a troll. It is more of an accusation than it is a nosological description. Besides, it is much quicker to identify a behavior than it is to deliberate one's status as a troll.
