What is it?
Appears to be if someone disagrees with a commonly held view on an internet forum they are considered a troll.
Amirite?

Gets thrown around by lots of people on here when someone disagrees with them.

posting things you do not believe purely to get a negative reaction from another poster, ie posting to wind them up
whether some people actually believe some of the things they post is a tough judgement call to make (and the best trolls know which side of the line to pitch the post), and the lines between debate and trolling get blurred!

You've clearly just started this thread to make a point about people disagreeing with you in another thread.
Why not just come out and say what you're really thinking?

yup pretty much someone who goes around posting deliberately inflammatory stuff on t'interwebs for the sole purpose of getting a reaction out of people - usually anonymously.
I'm interested in how people pronounce the word - I've always said it to rhyme with bowling which i assumed was right, but I seem to be in a minority
