Its when a person or person's makes a thread or post that is offensive that they know will make the others get mad and post a reply back that sometimes leaves in people fighting.

Trolling is joining an organization solely with the intent to cause disorder or attack the organization. This includes excessive spamming, posting pornography, assaulting the philosophies of the board or textually assaulting specific members.

Trolling is not joining and asking honest questions. Nor is a troll (though it is sometimes improperly used in this sense) anyone on a site that is banned.

Trolling is deliberately posting material designed to provoke a reaction or to bait members or staff. This sort of thing can either be vulgar or offensive, or sometimes just plain harrassing.

We deal with trolling rapidly and harshly. Obvious attempts will be expunged and accounts locked. Offensive usernames are banned on sight.

I'm leaving this thread up and stickied for others to view, but to avoid it becoming a magnet itself, it will be locked. You can PM myself or any of the other administrators and moderators with specific questions.
