aka Quote Tennis.
An phenomenon commonly seen on forums where two members will endlessly smash message after message back and forth, in the hope that they will get the last word, thus supposedly proving their point.
The rest of the forum usually loathes these tireless rebutters, for their obstinance and lack of a life. Forum tennis is best avoided by fully expressing your point of view clearly in a handful of messages at most, and then leaving it at that.

A forum troll is someone who actively watches a forum. Not to be confused with a lurker, or just a forum frequenter, the troll annoys, pesters, and generally insults any thread they open.

-- Forum Troll : "I've become dumber just by reading this. Removing you from the genepool would not only be helpful to society, but would be praised in songs for generations."

These people originate on the Eastern coast of the USA. Often these individuals visit internet forums and post statements that make no sense and are of no relevance to the topic that is being discussed.
They have no control of their disorder and will stop at nothing to get another pointless sentance posted on some forum.

Quentin7234: Why did that guy just post on the forum that his dog doesn't eat sugar free biscuits, when this forum is about Battlefield 2?
Soothie1932: I think that guy is a "Forum Addict", he posts on average 43 times a day on this site and I am yet to see him make any sense.
Quentin7234: Well, I wish he would stop. He makes me uncomfortable.
