terminology request

leisuresuitlary · 5 Feb 2004, 08:50 PM

I am confused, what is the difference between a troll and a spammer? What is trolling (sounds like some sort of devious practice!!!).

I do not wish to open a debate on spam etc here, I just want to know what these terms mean and the differences in the context in which they are used.
