Trolling, and the term troll come from usenet, a troll attempts to 
disrupt a newsgroup by various means, usually just posting something 
incendiary to start a flame war. Then they sit back and watch the 
show, there are some really entertaining, and interesting trolls 
about, I've even done a bit of trolling myself, but most ofthem are 
just morons with double digit IQ's.
