Trolling is a game about identity deception, albeit one that is played without the consent of most of the players. The troll attempts to pass as a legitimate participant, sharing the group's common interests and concerns; the newsgroups members, if they are cognizant of trolls and other identity deceptions, attempt to both distinguish real from trolling postings, and upon judging a poster a troll, make the offending poster leave the group. Their success at the former depends on how well they and the troll understand identity cues; their success at the latter depends on whether the troll's enjoyment is sufficiently diminished or outweighed by the costs imposed by the group.
Trolls can be costly in several ways. A troll can disrupt the discussion on a newsgroup, disseminate bad advice, and damage the feeling of trust in the newsgroup community. Furthermore, in a group that has become sensitized to trolling where the rate of deception is high many honestly naive questions may be quickly rejected as trollings. This can be quite off-putting to the new user who upon venturing a first posting is immediately bombarded with angry accusations. Even if the accusation is unfounded, being branded a troll is quite damaging to one's online reputation.

I have not understood much about your opinion to this "trolling" thing, what is it? Due to some researches in google I've noticed there is trolls under a bridge, or the meaning itself of trolling would be some sort of fishing style which fishers who are rather experienced with this trolling do for their living. If your obviously tiny tool of thinking ever thought of going there and explaining the true meaning of it like or and it has to mean something important more than this thread at least even thought the understanding of your topic, I am sure the original poster is also not not a not not newfag.
I don't always call someone a newfag, but when I do...

No, I don't. I though they were united.
Now I see why so many frustration.
