from the faq...

A "Troll" is internet slang for a person who creates posts or has a user name, signature and/or profile with content specifically intended to incite reaction (usually directed at another forum member, the administrator, a vendor/manufacturer or a political group, race, etc....), disrupt normal on-topic discussions or cause trouble on the forum. While some forms of trolling are tolerated in the Anything & Everything forum, most "troll" posts or deliberate actions seen as trolling will not be tolerated on JK-Forum.com.

I thought it was very poorly said! In fact, I've never read anything as poorly stated as that in my life. That comment just sucked.
