hee hee, i asked the exact same question when I joined.

A troll is someone who post things purely designed to get a reaction and wind people up. Some people do it for fun, it was on panorama programme this week, they can actually be prosecuted if caught!!

They are all over the internet

Most of us are nice though, welcome!!! x
