What is...?

[balders118]

Just want a few things explaining if that okay with you. I'm relatively new to forums in general, and would like to have a description of some forum terms and abreviations please..

A troll?: Okay, I know its someone posting BS, but seems to be a certain type of thing?

Also, "HTH" i think people write sometimes.. can't find an example to check that is the correct letters but i think it is. What does that one mean?

"FWIW".. For what its worth??

If there are any other commonly used ones, anyone wants to desifer that may also be useful. I've got to grips with a few (ETA, IIRC and SWMBO)

A troll is someone who posts inflammatory remarks for the purpose of getting everyone annoyed. They usually then sit back and wk themselves raw over the trouble they have caused.

HTH (Hope this helps)

"an internet term for a person who willfully, through obscene, offensive or hateful actions (a.k.a. "trolling"), attempts to disrupt a community or garner reactions, attention and controversy."

Also, "HTH" i think people write sometimes.. can't find an example to check that is the correct letters but i think it is. What does that one mean?

"FWIW".. For what its worth??

Ahh, now I look stupid.

"Hope this helps" makes more sense!
