Known former presidents of the GNAA were security researcher Jaime "asshurtmacfags" Cochran, who also co-founded the hacking group "Rustle League", and "timecop", founder of the anime fansub group "Dattebayo". Other members included former president Andrew " weev" Auernheimer, Daniel "JacksonBrown" Spitler, former Debian Project Leader Sam Hocevar, and former spokesman Leon Kaiser. GNAA has also been documented as having been loosely affiliated with the satirical wiki Encyclopedia Dramatica. The group's name incited controversy and was described as "causing immediate alarm in anyone with a semblance of good taste", "intentionally offensive", and "spectacularly offensive". The group denied allegations of racism and homophobia, explaining that the name was intended to sow disruption on the Internet and challenge social norms (claiming it was derived from the 1992 Danish satirical blaxploitation film Gayniggers from Outer Space). There was at least one known female GNAA member (Jaime "asshurtmacfags" Cochran).
The GNAA used many different methods of trolling. One method involved flooding a weblog's comment form with text consisting of repeated words and phrases, referred to as " crapflooding". On Wikipedia, members of the group created an article about the group, while still adhering to Wikipedia's rules and policies a process Andrew Lih says "essentially the system against itself." Another method included attacking many Internet Relay Chat channels and networks using different IRC flooding techniques. The GNAA also produced shock sites containing malware.

One such site, "Last Measure", contained embedded malware that opened up "an endless cascade of pop-up windows displaying pornography or horrific medical pictures." They also performed proof of concept demonstrations. These actions occasionally interrupted the normal operation of popular websites.
