'Troll' not acceptable

I speak with sympathy and
understanding for participants who
come from cultures less fortunate
than my own, but I have to say that
the word 'troll,' however
fashionable and current on the Net,
appears to me to be unacceptably
close to a bigoted, racist-style
term. People with genuine, specific
complaints proceed with them: bigots
speak in jibes.
