I'm not really sure, but I suspect that they need to get a life. Perhaps they are too bored with the life they've got, so they try to mess up a thread to test out a reaction and give them a bit of satisfaction if they manage to upset people. Basically they are sad sacks.

Who wanted to know what a WUM was ? It is some prat who enjoys winding people up (not unlike a Troll I suppose ) "Wind Up Merchant" (not sure why they are called 'merchants' - do they sell wind ?).

I think I'd better retire to my flea pit.......
Gilly, l would go along with that.

To me Trolls and WUMs seem hellbent on disrupting a thread. They hate good posters and will try and knock them back. They are only happy when the the other posters react and the thread is locked
I wasn’t being crude with the remark l made earlier, l was just trying to belittle the power they feel they have on a thread which really is, zilch.

Re: Why do you think Trolls Troll?

Aren't there different types of trolls though?

Some are quite funny, some just like to disrupt threads and others are downright nasty.

I like the funny trolls
