I haven't been around for very long but i haven't seen to much trouble with trolls. They usually create an account and post a few times to rile up the members and then move on. Personally i've never got the whole troll thing.
A lot (most) of the time, "troll" is just a euphemism for someone with a differing opinion.
When certain people with weak communication skillz cannot effectively argue, debate, discuss issues with someone they disagree with on a discussion forum, they must call them:

i) a retard
