Bugtracker trolls have been around a while.

When we started using bugzilla for GCC (many years ago now), within the first 100 bug reports, i think there were 5 trolls.

This also isn't very advanced trolling. Advanced trolling is indistinguishable from the thing they were trying to parody.

I still consider Github "new".
