    Spammers are people that constantly spam their own websites on other websites.

    Wikipedia:

    E-mail spam, also known as junk e-mail, is a subset of spam that involves nearly identical messages sent to numerous recipients by e-mail. A common synonym for spam is unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE). Definitions of spam usually include the aspects that email is unsolicited and sent in bulk. "UCE" refers specifically to unsolicited commercial e-mail.

    a troll is someone who enjoys saying inappropriate things or harassing people over the internet. Someone who goes to youtube and types in "king of the hill" just to say "KING OF THE HILL SUCKS LOL!" is an example of a troll.
