Internet Troll:
“First spotted in the 1980’s on what was then called Usenet, these creatures roamed the dial-up network architecture of the time. Later, as different networks merged into the modern Internet we know today, these beasts also evolved to make the jump onto the more diverse parts of this new and growing communications platform. Known for starting quarrels or upsetting random people for the sole purpose of distracting or sowing discord by posting inflammatory, digressive or factually inaccurate information.

Research has indicated that when ignored these creatures do little harm and are more of an annoyance then a threat. Attacks by “Internet Trolls” seem to happen most often after they have encountered one of the following… people with superior skillsets, others with a greater command of the language, somebody with a noticeably higher IQ, or finding lack in themselves after examining their own mental abilities, emotional stability or size of their sexual appendage.”
