While the word troll and its associated verb trolling are associated with Internet discourse, media attention in recent years has
made such labels subjective, with trolling describing intentionally provocative actions and harassment outside of an online context.
For example, mass media has used troll to describe "a person who defaces Internet tribute sites with the aim of causing grief to
families."[6][7]In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts
inflammatory,[3]extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as a forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary
intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[4] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[5]
The noun troll may refer to the provocative message itself, as in: "That was an excellent troll you posted."
