Flagger troll: a troll who reports other people's content just to get it removed, even if it isn't broken, miscategorised or even lacking in quality.

FTHOI (For The Hell Of It) troll: a term used to describe a troll who causes trouble just to get people annoyed, which he/she finds ammusing for some reason.

One-starring: to rate content as "Garbage". Other variations include one-starred, one-star and one-starrer (I know, the last example was garbage :P)

Vengance troll: a troll who despises another user and decides to rate their content as "1 star", insult them and -as I have recently found out- flag the user's videos (also known as a flagger troll).

Ego troll: Also known as the UTOA (Up Their Own Arse) troll, an Ego Troll who accuses another user of being pathetic compared to themselves (these are mainly false accusations, due to the typical troll lacking in talent)

Right, this soapbox will improve once I've remembered more of them.

You been hit mighty recently by a flagger troll Mr. Wrench? Using my awesome powers of deduction, (the fact that "flagger toll" is first, that you mentioned them again in vengeance troll definition, etc) I would assume you have.

In any case-- *Hugs*! For any troll-victims. And smurfs for trolls.

Good article. Can't wait to see it grow.

I tried to put them in alphabetical order, but considering there aren't many def's at the moment it wasn't so clear.

I was hit three times (actually six, because one user flagged three videos with two accounts). But Dave, being the nice guy he is; sorted it out for me and now the troll has been removed.

There are also trolls who attack spots because they hate or are morally opposed to the subject of the spot. For example, a Republican trolls the U.S. Democratic Party Spot, a JAM fan trolls the Jaren spot, or a person one religion trolls the spot about another religion.
