Attention-seeking behavior in adults includes saying or doing something with the goal of getting the attention of a person or a group of people.
Examples of this behavior include:
fishing for compliments by pointing out achievements and seeking validation
being controversial to provoke a reaction
exaggerating and embellishing stories to gain praise or sympathy
pretending to be unable to do something so someone will teach, help, or watch the attempt to do it
Thus the greater the level of the attention, the more satisfied the attention seeker becomes as the 'need' for attention is being met.
Depriving attention seekers of the attention they crave (usually) leads to ever more extreme attention seeking actions. |  |

You could make a case that your OP meets the definition, seems intended to get a rise/response from someone. |  |

I had the misfortune of reading one of his ever-increasing idiotic posts this morning for the first time in a while. I had been logged out of the site so everybody who I have set to ignore appeared in all their glory.
I think he's an embarrassment of a supporter, and too many people defend his right to be an obnoxious and insulting stain on this fanbase. Just stick him on ignore everybody, the forum is significantly better without him on it. If anyone disagrees, then feel free to stick me on ignore as that will probably help both of us as well. |  |

I have just the one person on ignore so this post confused me. Logged out just to check and, lo and behold, the post now makes sense. I agree with the above sentiment that putting the blubbing troll on ignore significantly improves this site. |  | | |
