Talk:Troll (internet)

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Trolls are known to deface wiki based webpages such as wikipedia for the purpose of enjoyment. They have no other purpose for their actions than their own personal enjoyment at other people's outrage. One site in particular that condones and even advocates trolling is 4chan.org; more specifically, their 'random' board, known as /b/."

I'd like to add this to the article; common knowledge for an avid internet user but it helps to explain the term in more detail... Any ideas on how to get a source for this if needed?

Trolls before Wikis & Wikipedia[change source]
