I have heard many variations of the word troll used in so many different contexts.
What do the wonderful posters of CC have to say about trolling?

It's a wonderful thing...

Troll: See: Restricted

It's actually the Welsh word Llort, spelt backwards.
The backward spelling is for magical effect, and is a time-binder.
For instance, all the time you spent reading this you were under a Llort spell, and should have been doing something more useful.

CC poster: What is spam? Can you define it?
CC mod: Just use your common sense, spamming is trolling.
CC poster: Can you define trolling then?
CC mod: Simple! Trolling is what trolls do!
CC poster: And can you actually answer the question and define trolls then?
CC mod: Trolls are people who spam. I've told you the answer *leaves*

Trolls are people who use circular reasoning to promote their own ends on the internet?

Trolls use circular logic in a square conversation, square logic in a circular conversation, and pentagonal logic when confusion is the goal.

What does that make someone who uses hexagonal logic?

A confused troll. Six is a very bad number for trolls. It reminds them of diamonds and their days working the diamond mines in Canada.

I see, but wouldn't a confused troll be all the more confusing for everyone else and thereby be capable of causing even more mayhem than a normal troll?

certainly, nnhaa nhaa nhaa

You used to be able to find one under a bridge if you were lucky.
Unfortunatly, not many survived The Great Purge of '53.
