What is a troll? Can you eat it? I noticed a post by Cloudy about "trolls" and banning them. Huh?

I guess you missed tonights action then. IW was being invaded by three of em (or one posting on three different accounts). The first page of GD was full of topics started by the trolls. Mostly swearing and other cavemanlike behaviour. In the end Mouse came and did what mods are supposed to do, he kicked butt !

[img]tongue.gif[/img] many different versions
troll: a creature with many variations but all quite ugly and malicious. The gigantic troll was often dim witted and lived in caves with a fondness for human flesh.
troll: ones that guard the bridges
troll: To utter a posting on board designed to attract predictable responses or flames; or, the post itself. An annoying poster

Solution on how to deal with trolls:
A troll could be destroyed by sunlight, which could turn them into stone.

They can be ignored by other posters and be consumed by moderators.

Trolling is a term used on on-line gaming where you aggrovate monsters to chase after you, then you lead these monsters through other player camps to upset them
