Anyone can troll but to be defined as a troll suggests that it's your main purpose is trolling and that you do it repeatedly. Trolling is deliberately antagonising people to prompt a negative reaction, because you get off on being in control of people's emotions.

@SW-User Yes, you can't troll by accident or it's not trolling. When you troll you know what you're doing.
