What is the motivation for Kicktrolling? Who would a kicktroller be? I don't get it.
i) Person who just wants to be a dick.
ii) Person with personal vendetta against the project creator
iii) Company looking to fend off competitors much the way of clicking lots of links to burn through a competitors ppc on adword.
There's a lot of hate on the internet for many kickstarter projects - "who would fund this crap?!", "how is this receiving money?!". This sort of 'trolling' is probably coming from people who don't want to see certain projects succeed. I'm sure it would happen a lot more if you didn't require proof that you actually had that much money in your bank.
