Ignorant so called "sports-fans" who have nothing better to do than to go around commenting negatively on Laker related stories, hoping to entice someone into an argument that is senseless and baseless. This is a mutation of the life-form known as Laker Hater, and as such share character traits.
The fact that they have time to do this indicates that
either they have no life or their team of choice isn't worth
writing about or spending time on.
Hating and Trolling stem from feelings of inadequacy due to
their team of choice LACKING in either: 1) Championship
Banners and Rings, 2) Team Notoriety, 3) News media
coverage, 4) Legendary Players, 5) NBA records, or all 5 of
them.
The recommended way to handle the Laker Troll is either to
ignore them, or to point out factual falsities in their post
without ranting. The reason for this is not to give them
what they want (attention and for said Laker fan to waste
their time).
Laker Trolls are known to exist exclusively in comments of
online sports articles. It is predicted that as the number
of Laker Championship banners increases, the number of Laker Trolls in the US will jump exponentially.
One of the most well known weaknesses of this mutation is
the paralyzing effect that Kobe adding more jewelry (rings)
has on them. Each time The Mamba adds a ring, the Laker
Troll's are silenced and go into hiding for 3-10 months.

Laker Fan 1: "Did you see that stupid comment about the Lakers bro, obviously a Kobe Hater? I'm so tired of seeing that Laker Troll post all the time so I'm gonna go off on him for a page."
Laker Fan 2: "Don't waste your time, that's what they want.
Besides, we're too busy counting our rings... no time for haters or trolls..."

A type of troll, whose specialty is to throw in the first “Remove me” response to an email sent to a large distribution group (typically by mistake), with the malicious intent of starting an email avalanche of other (genuine) “Remove me” responses and the (always futile) "Please stop replying to all" follow-up responses.
After 48 hours of no reactions, our seeding troll was able to ignite the largest email mayhem to-date.

You idiots all got this fucking wrong. The correct spelling of “internet troll” is actually TRAWLER. The term “troll” comes from TRAWLING FOR ARGUMENTS - like a fishing trawler. Fishing trawlers slowly drag bait or nets behind them and wait for fish to bite. Therefore; if someone leaves a comment on the internet as bait for an argument, they are “trawling” for an argument. Someone who practices trawling for arguments would therefore be coined a “TRAWLER”.
You people are idiots. The term is actually “trawler.”

Internet trawlers trawl social media for arguments (not troll)

When somebody on the internet starts trolling in a comment thread, it often elicits more people to come and troll (for the lulz). The larger the "troll train", the more trolls it will attract. This is known as the troll effect.
User 1: Wow! It's so nice to see another rover on mars!
User 2 (in reply to User 1): Bet they didn't tell you that the footage was all recorded in a studio!!
User 3 (in reply to User 2): Shhhh!! Brainwashed people are sensitive to these truths. Careful with what you say ;)
User 4: This is obviously all fake. I call BS.
User 5: You guys really believe that this is real? lmao
User 6: Can you trolls just shut the fuck up? You're only amplifying the troll effect.

Thomas: "Sam's BMI has been way too high his whole life, this has resulted in a higher fatty acid composition in his cerebral brain lobes and is the primary factor why he can't understand basic banter."
Jane: "Stop being such a fact-troll, Thomas."
