Sure, but if you're doing it online and trying to hide that you're doing it, I'm gonna say 90% of the time or more, the intention is to irritate.

    If all accounts are anonymous then there's not any hiding.

    The amount of irritation/trolling depends on how personal the comments get, not the username that is making them.

    Sockpuppeting an argument with yourself is just masturbation though.

    I would disagree. How else is one supposed to understand the limitations of a statement? The completeness of a position? Areas for further study? A confidence rating of sorts in a position?

    This mental masturbation exercise can be done in the privacy of your own home.

    No need to show off over multiple accounts on a public forum.

    Although, ironically, I am enjoying the suspicion I'm creating about you being my sock puppet.
