The Gay Nigger Association of America, (more commonly known by the acronym GNAA) are a loosely afilliated group of anti-blogging trolls responsible for several high profile internet trolls , as well as software products and security releases . The group maintains a wiki-based site dedicated to commenting on notable internet events and parodying slashdot posts, as well as offering a SVN based repository known as "Trollforge" for GNAA coding projects

Members engage in such activities as flooding weblogs, producing shock sites, prank-calling technical support telephone lines, and IRC channel disruption such as IRC floods . These actions have occasionally interrupted the normal operation of popular websites such as slashdot.org, even forcing some websites to shut down temporarily. As such, targeted communities generally consider GNAA members a nuisance and frequently respond with technological and social anti-trolling measures such as moderation systems to limit future disruption.
