The Common Troll… by GixxerJoe
First we must define a Troll before we can truly find out their motivation.
From Wikipedia
In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2]

So now we know what a troll is, we can look at how one becomes a troll. I will list what I think are the top reasons for these people turning into trolls and you can have fun and add to the list.
1) They are a psychology student studying the “art of dickory”
2) They are short, with squeaky voices and the internet is the only way that they can be heard.
3) They claim to have an iPhone but really its an LG Dare. So their pissed
4) They just got fired from AT&T and Verizon will not hire them.
5) They have an infatuation with Elvis
6) A.S.S (attention seeking syndrome)
7) They have an infatuation with Lance Bass
8) Their favorite movie is really Broke Back Mountain (it kills them they have to keep this inside)
9) They feel because they can use Google and Wikipedia it truly makes them smarter.
10) They are 35 years old, single, and still live at home with their Mom
