    No. I adore ENTjs.

    Ahem, INTps are a pain in the ass.

    ESFps are annoying.

    ISFjs are fun to push around.

    Hee hee. I've been too embarassed to ask that myself. What is a troll?
    This is a troll. A person that leaves remarks in order to incite a response from other forum members in a mostly anonymous fashion.

    People that troll are often smarter than the other people and get their kicks out of corrupting the perceived etiquette of the forum.

    They most enjoy remarks such as "alright, just ignore the troll!" or "Oh, looks like we got a troll on our hands!" cause its funny.

    Yeah, in fishing trolling is "Angling by drawing a baited line through the water" Same thing here, baiting people to get a reaction. yep.

    a troll is a person that starts open ended arguments, hateful messages, anything that can cause trouble. just so they can argue about anything.

    i think it comes from a fishing term.

    usually i'll stay out of trolling, but sometimes it can be fun just to have an arguement.

    Just being argumentative or bitter is lame. I think the "best" trolls get people to realize a problem or sway people to their beliefs without explicitly arguing that point. There's a lot of misdirection and possibly misinformation... it pretty much turns into propagandizing depending on the issue.

    maizemedley, you poor, silly creature. I can see a funny, wicked troll making you his/her disciple I suppose it is funny when a anonymous guest pokes his/her head in and says something off the wall but we dont need them so much on this forum. Thats what discojoe is for (or perhaps was for, if he has repented of his evil troll-like deeds )
    Anyway thanks for answering my questions folks.

    Yeah trolling is a fishing term. I think it has to do with dragging your line in order to catch prey--often used in small boats... let me go look it up to be 100% sure =p

    2 entries found for trolling.
    troll1 ( P ) Pronunciation Key (trl)
    v. trolled, troll·ing, trolls
    v. tr.

    To fish for by trailing a baited line from behind a slowly moving boat.
    To fish in by trailing a baited line: troll the lake for bass.
    To trail (a baited line) in fishing.
    Slang. To patrol (an area) in search for someone or something: “ [Criminals] troll bus stations for young runaways” (Pete Axthelm).
    Music.
    To sing in succession the parts of (a round, for example).
    To sing heartily: troll a carol.
    To roll or revolve.

    Yay for dictionary.com =p

    sometimes they can give info, but it may not be at all accurate. and sometimes they are a real person, but become a troll because no one understands the question, and due to frustration it's better to just nuke em. they aren't always that smart either. many are just plain stupid. i belong to one board where he compares different types of camera's just to incite a riot. his facts are based on his logic, and the facts are far from accurate.

    but overall, people are lured and the troll has something to do.

    it's like a prank call.

    I think I like trolls too . They are sort of the reflection of anything laughable in life, like the town drunk, that random street preacher or that sarcastic old coot.

    Trolls ought to be ignored. People who hide behind guest accounts aren't worth their bandwidth.

    This is rediculous. Stop trolling the guests. I mean, I'm completley worth the bandwith.
