The following are my own definitions, and hardly complete. However, these are something to start with.

Definitions aren't compliance, leo.
where moderators are concerned i would agree, they have the whole "justice" thing to look at.
i just didn't want to report posts for "baiting" when they are actually something else.
Enter a Cathedral of the 16th century and dare to raise your voice against that times, "modern" myths and Holy Scriptures, and see how fast you are cast out and accused of "disrupting" a place of worship by petty worm-tongues and two-bit "intellectuals".
Each age has its defenders of ethics and what is "right".
In these current ones we have administrators finding authority on internet forums, using terms like "troll" to explain why censorship is permissible there, while they denounce it every place else.

You just got out of prison right ? Banning is what I mean . Trolling was it ? I am a little curious. I didn't see what caused your ban . I been banned a couple times . It can be quite tricky . I often wonder if Administrators target individuals that they deem inappropriate by ideology . The evil meat eater thread of an Administrator opened many eyes right here at our very own home ( SciForum )
Trolling Baiting and flaming . Love it all . Keep it coming . Unite trolls !!! We got em on the ropes .
Baiting for an intelligent person is the most fun of them all. One thing to keep in mind is baiting can be very educational .
I want to know what this is? Is this trolling?
Mikey, you're a hetero male-you can shave your head.
OTOH, if it really does look like that....

Mikey's kidding. I seriously doubt Mike has day-glo hair...at most it might be a natural bright red and really bushy, think Carrot Top.
Or...maybe don't. ( Just something about the makeup, nail polish and giant muscles...woah, not good.)*passes eyebleach*

And you see? That much I can appreciate. While it's not an argument you're going to win in the long run, at least you taught me something new.
A wonderful colloquialism, sir. Thank you for introducing me to it.

No.
You were banned because you proved unable to carry on a conversation with anybody for any length of time without insulting them.
Sock puppets are not allowed on sciforums, so you are banned again.
Nice name choice, by the way. Appropriate.
