Trolling has various meanings. More traditionally, trolling means motoring a boat very slowly while fishing from it. Trolling online: Here, it's use began in the mid-1990s when providers like AOL had chat rooms. "Trolls" in this sense were people "trolling" chat rooms, e.g. going from one to another chat, with the intention of causing trouble or inciting people to be upset. A classic trolling example is going into a chat room and calling someone an inflammatory name, waiting for members to get upset, then leaving. Others say 'trollin' means going crazy of having fun.
