Ok I have heard this talked about but not exactly sure what it is? Tried to search for it but nothing came up except the word in threads and the controlling. Please explain cuz I don't want to inadvertently do so.
Hmm... Don't know how to explain. Like, a joker in a somewhat jerky way
It means you're saying something controversial or being a jerk to get a reaction from someone. Most trolls get a kick out of riling up people and getting reactions, hence the phrase "don't feed the trolls" because if no one responds, then the troll loses.

Here you go.
HAHHAHAHAHHA IM A PINK BUTT HOLE HAHAHARRR DO YOU WANT SOME CANDY!!!!!!??!!!!!!!??!!!!?!!!?!!?!??
^ that is one kind of trolling.
...Another kind is more subtle. Sometimes asking a question with a painfully obvious answer, or answering a question with a sarcastic answer, or with an answer that intentionally waw not quite what the asker was looking for.

You don't say?
That was trolling
Simply put, trolling is instigating a reaction out of someone/a group of people by irking them.
Be it by just being a jerk to crapping on orhers' input to saying things to get people to notice and get riled, and cindjor said,is the essense of trolls
Don't be jerks people. It's as simple as that.
It's people that speak only to be hateful. It's not just joking, it's intentional meanness for no reason.
Example: I have a Dallas Cowboys fan page on Facebook. Many trolls(fans of other teams) like my page just so they can talk trash on every post I make.
Trolls have no lives and their only purpose is to bring people down. Not to get a laugh, but to make people feel bad. Basically the old bully in school thing
typical troll phrases.
Cool story brah
Is that so?
oh really?
(insert card which defeats a combo)
meh seen better
Search Kuberr
Most of his posts were trolling. I think he has a disorder too. :/
The ultimate troll
Cool story bro
Please tell it again
Fr srsly
To be fair, not 100% of trolling is mean-spirited. My friends and I will troll each other in jest for laughs often, and I suspect many of you do also. It's when it's done with the intent to upset people that it's bad, and that is the type I don't think any of us want to see around here.
