Imagine the fairy tale stories about trolls - they are nasty, mean, and typically lurk somewhere waiting to unleash their unpleasantness upon an unsuspecting traveler.
Now, take that image and translate it into the context of an internet forum; a troll lies in wait for someone to post a topic or respond to one in a manner they disagree with. That "troll" basically just criticizes or makes fun of that other poster for no good reason - maybe they have a chip on their shoulder or just don't like the poster - but it's not constructive in any way...
