Methinks this guy had too much time on his hands to track down a troll.

This is great, the look on the guy's face is priceless when he's called out

This would make a good dateline series "To catch an internet troll"

That is awesome. We need a CD troll tracking task force so people can stop cowering behind anonymity.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. As the guy pointed out, yes some of it is illegal according to UK law.

Hopefully it's not out of the statute of limitations and they can go after the numbnutz.

The internet is an easily traceable medium that anyone with administrator access and a little determination can use to find people.

Usually easier for cranks and trolls, they tend to have stupendous diarrhea of the mind.
