Shill has come to mean someone commenting who isn't actually a part of the community and is probably paid to be there for a variety of purposes like sowing dissent, division, confusion, frustration, etc. This means a shill can be for or against something, or even play both sides of the argument being generally obnoxious so actual users get frustrated and don't bother, to the detriment of all.
