Again I'll state one of the definitions of "trolling":

FORCING A DISCUSSION TO GO AROUND IN CIRCLES FOR ONE'S OWN AMUSEMENT AND THE IRRITATION OF OTHERS
 
Our wind-up troll is at it again. Every time you respond, you wind him up to keep the circle spinning.
 
I suggest ignoring the wind-up troll, because such Internet denizens rarely stop of their own accord.
