Not 100% sure but i think it`s kinda just hanging around threads in search of starting arguements or something. I do know it`s something to that nature

THANKS IMIT FOR CLEARING THAT UP FOR ME APPRECIATED ALC

yes thats what it means when u just go into a thread and just start a fight, also from what i saw in the ps2 thread before it got hide or buried under the million new ones that natureboy said that was ony part of the reason that thread got closed down.

Users who make "junk" post, off topic post, non needed post, etc.

There's different meanings, but here's the "official" meaning from "yahoo answers".

"A "troll" is someone who intentionally and persistently posts inflammatory messages about sensitive topics to bait users into responding or provoke a confrontation. We also consider people to be trolls when they persistently misuse product features such as the ratings system to negatively target others."
