Though the word "troll" has existed in the English language for some time, it wasn't used as internet slang until 1992, according to the Oxford English Dictionary. When used online, this slang term refers to someone who intentionally makes offensive comments with the goal of stirring up controversy.
It annoys me when trolls disrupt a conversation on a chat board. It is simply courage behind a keyboard. I always wonder about such people.
