chess-server.com also died recently. Oh and I am banned from posting on another site's forum. Not totally my fault!

I just started playing at chesshood and only finished 5 games before the sad news about Emilie. They had numerous site problems but overall I enjoyed my short time there.

Could I have a (working) definition of "troll(ing)" please? Thx.

From wikipedia:

In Internet slang, a troll is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog), either accidentally[3][4] or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[5] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[6]
This sense of the word troll and its associated verb trolling are associated with Internet discourse, but have been used more widely. Media attention in recent years has equated trolling with online harassment.
