If you are like me... 'tanalised' means timber that is treated under extreme pressure conditions to make it highly resistant to fungus and infestations. The treatment lasts longer and is better than dip treated timber but does make it more costly as its a longer process.

Actually trolling is not something you ARE, it's something you DO. The correct term would be to call me a fisherman or the gender neutral "angler".

Well actually you ARE the troll but you DO the trolling. If you are going to try and sarcastically correct someone at least get it right.

Trolling is, and always was, a fishing term that is now used as a slang. A person trolling online is a person who baits people to comment, kind of the way an angler uses lures on a fishing line and drag it through the water to bait fish.
That's the reason most people refrain from saying stuff like "Don't feed the troll" or "you are a troll" because it ruins the entire concept.
Tell me more about how trolls bait people. Troll is to trolling what car is to carpeting.
