In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
-wiki
In other words:
Being a prick on the internet because you can. Typically unleashing one or more cynical or sarcastic remarks on an innocent by-stander, because it's the internet and, hey, you can.
Guy: "I just found the coolest ninja pencil in existence."
Other Guy: "I just found the most ******ed thread in existence."
I am used to internet communities where you can post your thoughts however trivial others may perceive. Keep in mind, that topic importance is relative to the reader. I have a fascination with EVE and thus post many thoughts and questions. That in turn does not constitute my posts as "trolling."
The many off topic replies I do get in return DO constitute trolling and just serve to disrupt the train of thought in the thread for both myself and others that may be interested.
Posting my stats, or image clips of my topic groups proves nothing other than my topics get bumped. It is quite possible to bump any one members topics into a group.
I am sorry that moderator(s) have been caught up in this by declaring many of my topics as "lack content" or "trolling." I suggest you not pay so much attention to the real trolls (based on the proper definition) spamming my topics, and consider the quality of my topics however little.
I come here for information and to have fun. Apparently my topics are not welcomed as I've created a hostile following towards me. Well, I refuse to be shouted down by EVE trolls who feel their gaming privileged also allows them to control others on the forum, and as long as the mods allow me to post I will continue to post. Asking for my posting rights to be revoked does not "add" to the EVE community. At no point are you forced to click on and read my topics...and apparently many of you enjoy doing so just for the sake of insulting me.
So mods, keep your eye on the ball and don't be swayed by the trolls trying to dominate this forum with their immature bashing. And as for the rest of you that actually enjoy and contribute to my topics, Thank You.
Fly safe.

One mans troll is another mans genius, in the end people shouldnt bite, saying that you arent trolling (since you are bad at it) but you are flooding the forums.
I have no issue with this but I am not a mod so I guess what I am trying to say is IBTL and FIRST!!

I think the general forum populace like to pick on someone. Seems to be your turn at the moment.

And these threads are also about EVE Online and not discussing trolls, and moderation. So I am going to lock this for discussion of moderation and being off topic for the EVE Online forums.
