I am remarking on the information you provided, guessing for the slang 
word you used. Do not use slang words in an international group.

Do not presume upon being better qualified here if some local variation 
of English is your prime or monoglot language.

You can consider what you seem fit, 
but don't put that as a fact using "is".

No answer here?

Again the mistake that the response can be limited by the wishes of the 
original posting. Nasty responses are to be avoided, independent of 
whether called for or not. Nasty however in the eyes of the reader, could 
be different from the pen of the writer.

Defining someone as a troll is nasty in itself, tendency for nastyness is 
in all of us.
