What is a troll? I do not understand the term. Please explain?

They sit under bridges, create false accounts, write stupid answers to questions for points, and if they get annoyed with someone they will falsely report them to get them kicked from Y!A.

From Y!A:

"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."

A troll is someone who enters a chat room or group forum and they deliberately post topics that are sensitive.

Example: Say you are a Democrat and you are at a group forum online just for Democrats. A few minutes later, a person comes in and posts a topic entitled "President Bush is good." Well, you know what that will lead to....

Oohay above me gave you an excellent answer.

In Internet terminology, a troll is someone who intentionally posts derogatory or otherwise inflammatory messages about sensitive topics in an established on line community such as an on line discussion forum to bait users into responding.

online it means someone who says mean things and is obnoxious. someone who obviously has no life and is a coward because they are a big man behind a computer monitor but probably a loser in real life.
