I know I know... a very silyl question, considering I've used forums for atleast 6 years.
But the word trolling has only come to my attention late last year, so to me, it's actually quite new.
What I know, you are trolling if you post on a forum, either talking shit about someone, or talking nonsense (spam?)
Would be nice if someone could clarify it, or express their own oppinion on it.
On a second note, would this thread consider being a trolling one?

Trolling is somewhat of a subjective term. It's typically used if someone is intentionally spamming or devaluing forum discussion.

The trolls employed what the M.I.T. professor Judith Donath calls a “pseudo-naïve” tactic, asking stupid questions and seeing who would rise to the bait.

^^So yes. Your thread could be considered trolling. And yes, we could be considered victims of said trolling, engaged in feeding.

If you do it on purpose to provocate people, then yes.
