The YerATroll. YerATrolls are those whining forumites who devote a tremendous amount of time and energy complaining about the tremendous amount of time an energy expended by Troll Bashers and Angry Forumites on the practice of troll-hunting. A self-righteous and hypocritical breed, YerATrolls spend all their time pointing fingers at everyone but trolls, petulantly demanding that their opinions be granted the significance the YerATroll believes they deserve. YerATrolls often start threads excoriating others for troll-hunting, all the while completely oblivious to the fact that they're engaging in trolling by picking fights with everyone else. One of the most ill-tempered of troll species, YerATrolls are characterized by a childish need for attention disguised as cynical nobility and pretensions of being "above it all."

I think someone thought you were a troll when you said you liked nickleback because they don't understand how anybody can like nickleback and neither do I lol

I find it kind of funny how you're being trolled by trolls who are calling you a troll.
However, to actually explain what they mean: a troll is someone who makes it their goal to generally disrupt the funtion of the forums in one way or another. Most common are trolls who try to upset people. Obviously someone believed you were trolling with your nickelback comment, taking it as extreme sarcasm meant to derail the concert thread, as most people don't share your love of nickelback.
Don't let it get to you.

And with Dave's post, I think this is a great time to close the thread. Question has been answered, and its likely to just devolve from here.
The easiest solution is to make sure all your posts are helpful and polite.
