Bob is #2. You will recognize the posting style of a number of other JREF members in the other nine troll types.
Quote:
This type of troll loves a good argument. They can take a great, thoroughly researched and fact-based piece of content, and come at it from all opposing discussion angles to challenge its message. They believe they're right, and everyone else is wrong. You'll often also find them leaving long threads or arguments with other commenters in community comment sections, and they're always determined to have the last word – continuing to comment until that other user gives up.
That all sounds very desirable on a forum about being skeptical.
