Also, trolling is actually about tricking the unsuspecting into anger and agitation. Instead of what we know as 'trolling', which is actually online harrasment. The origins of the word lie in the fishing practice where a net is trolled along the back of a boat, catching any unsuspecting fish. It doesn't relate to a thrashing beast of Tolkien lore (which is what we associate with trolling nowadays)

Trolling shouldn't be personal, just generally annoying.

To directly answer the question, you can troll whenever you feel like it.
