If Roathie is a Swansea fan, and does it matter, I can see why he may want to wind people up on here, but in general what is it about trolling under alias's that some find appealing?
I am genuinely intrigued. Is it the confusion that does it, is it the involvement? is it the anonymity that appeals, really puzzles me, and I'm not being sarcastic, just genuinely can't understand it.
There are loads of sites, message boards etc on thousands of topics, surely there must be something out there for everyone to keep them interested and occupied.
I would love to read some psychological analysis of what it is about this type of trolling, which let's be honest is usually quite harmless compared to some you read about.
can we please try and keep this debate sensible if possible, I really would like some honesty and cards on the table, Not trying to get people to stop doing whatever it is they do, if they enjoy it, then as long as no one is harmed, then who cares, just want to understand it a little more.

As a lurker/ reader rather than poster I've noticed you have had a few names Gwyn yourself, so maybe you can answer your own question ?

If you believe all you read I got hundreds, but you will find if Owain looks for you we have three names registered at this ISP or what ever it is, My wife who is more of a football fan than me to be honest and my son are registered, this was done early on to be honest to get the numbers up for Annis to make it look good.
To be honest, the things I have to say I would rather people know they come from me rather than some alias, saying that I can understand how some people would have a alias to say something they occasionally don't want attributed to them, but that is a different argument to the constant trolling type thing, which I find hard to understand, my query was what does someone get out of just disrupting or trolling?
I love a good argument/debate as you may have worked out, find it a good way to get rid of some frustrations, and in all honesty a good argument on here get's more hits than any football post, must be a close thing as to what get's more hits, hooligan talk, or arguments, but hey on a good day you can't beat it.
