If I was trolling you I would point out that there are two R's in stirring
There isn’t two R’s in stirring, there’s two r’s

Apostrophes aren’t used to show plurals. The plural of r is rs.There isn’t two R’s in stirring, there’s two r’s

I wasn't talking about you specifically, I'm referring to certain cliques of posters that always seem to gang up on some individuals.
Yes I agree that happens , although there appear to have been a few flouncers in recent times.

Maybe not but you were generalising somewhat. People will always 'like' posts when it's by one of their pals and against someone they don't get on with - but that's not really trolling in my book. It's just a quick way of saying you agree with the sentiment, without having to add another post.
If someone calls me an idiot but nobody likes it I'll probably ignore them. If someone calls me an idiot and it has 20 likes, then I'll entertain the possibility that I might have been an idiot on that occasion.

I totally agree with you, but most of those that “ gang up “ are in a little private WhatsApp group and they troll

Interesting thread now
In regards what a troll is - someone was kind enough to put a post up that showed a perfect example of a troll
With the like function - it was a nice edition to the forum and I’ll use it when someone posts something that I agree with or like
But you can see some treads with it and you can have a little bets on who would like who’s post etc
What I have seen on another forum is when you like a post you can add a little reason

Crikey. I'm concerned that some folk are giving this the level of thought they appear to be!

Most of the what’s app groups I’m a member of are - swindle groups , family and a bunch of mates who play golf together at times.
Couple of have also helped raise a bit of money - one of them each year puts in around £150 to sponser a tee
