Default Your guide to Trollology.

without further ado my guide to Trolls:

Baby Troll.

Baby Troll is new to the Troll profession, just discovered how to use computers and thinks it's funny to join a web site to cause trouble.

Characteristics: Got no mates and just wants to appear funny.

Ambition: To be loved and accepted.

How to spot: Usually just joined a site and has a huge amount of postings in the first couple of weeks, starting threads that are designed to cause arguments.

Danger to forums: 1/10 (1 being the lowest risk)

Multiple User Name Troll:

Slightly more dangerous than Baby Troll as they know how to use computers. Joins forums and intentionally sets up various User Name accounts. They then proceed to burn each User Name out by getting banned, until they are down to their last User Name.

Characteristics: Unfunny and aggressive.

Ambition: To meet someone and be happy.

How to spot: When down to the last User Name there is a flurry of action on their account. Check the joining date under their profile, it's a dead give away.

Danger to forum: 4/10


Stupid Troll:

Gets banned and tries to join again with similar User Name which to sensible people like us is a dead give away.

Ambition: To get to Australia.

Characteristics: Stupidity.

How to spot: Easy.

Danger to forums: -10

Pizza Muncher Troll:

The most dangerous of the lot. Never leaves the bedroom where there are banks of computers, member of multiple forums. Lives on pizzas and reads the Sun. They stink to high heaven.

Characteristics: They smell and cause mayhem on forums.

Ambition: To have a cardboard coffin made by Domino's.

How to spot: very difficult however the constant referral to mozzarella should give it away and plumbing bills as they wipe their arses on pizza boxes after the Sun has ran out and block the pan.

Danger to forums. 10/10

There's more but I can't be arsed.

Pissed troll: Him who joins for the banter but regularly has to spend his Saturday mornings searching for what he posted on a Friday night.

How to spot: Head in hands and saying "I didn't say that did I?".

Ambition: notoriety
