The Gay Nigger Association of America (abbreviated GNAA) is a troll organization that primarily targets Internet communities in an effort to cause havoc and disrupt their normal activities. Although it is termed "Association of America", the organization claims to have members from all over the world.
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.
History
The GNAA first appeared in January 2003, trolling Slashdot using ASCII art logos representing the organization and satirical news releases pertaining to the contents of Slashdot articles. As with other troll organizations, members of the GNAA adopt pseudonyms to preserve their anonymity and their true identities are generally not known. While its number of members are unknown, the GNAA has listed members "timecop" as the founder and President and "jesuitx" as a co-founder and Vice President.
The GNAA's website features pictures of black athletes and professionals that appear to originate from stock image archives in an apparent attempt to parody the designs of various corporate websites. It states that the GNAA does not either support or promote racism, homophobia, or other kinds of hatred. While their main motivations are difficult to determine, they claim to have targeted websites and blogs that promote "anti Gaynigger and pro-Zionist propaganda".
GNAA members Rucas and Armorfist created a shock site called Last Measure, which the GNAA often links or redirects to in their various activities. In order to automate their activities, the GNAA has created many programmatic scripts for uses such as crapflooding sites. The source code of these scripts are usually made available under the revised BSD license. One such script is ASIAN, The Automated Synchronous IRC Abuse Network, a clone of a popular IRC flooding tool called AYSYN (Are you stupid? Yes/No) by mef. It was created by members Rucas and abez due to the many bugs found in AYSYN and the lack of source code. It uses SOCKS proxies and Tor to connect numerous drones to an IRC server and use them to flood various people and channels. Most importantly, GNAA sucks all of the members of myg0ts cock. fucking gay niggers. lefty was here.
