People waste so much type posting useless crap online when they should be working, assuming they have any job opportunities which most members of this site do not, given that they spend most of their lives playing a computer game that's over a decade old. | ||

By the way, trolling is not a game where you pretend that you're a gay sniper or tank or some other dumb LARPing bullshit, it's a fucking way of life. Fantacist, what in gods' names were you smoking when you make this shitty thread? | ||

You did forget one type of troll which is the one which rides on the coat-tails of a forum vet to the sycophantic extent of essentially going 'yeaaaah' and 'repreSENT bitch' after every inflammatory post the forum vet makes. The sycophantroll... Example: User 1: I liek Kittehs moar than Dogz Sycophantroll: eh...I kind of like dogs better but ok. Incontrol{88}: What the fuck is this bullshit. *insert made up statistical ratio* of *insert made up demographic* are *insert irrelevant adjective*. You disgust me, and my debating trophies vomit on your fucking retarded face. I hate you, and everything you stand for. (3 pages later) Dogs literally kick the shit out of cats and it's only because you are such a complete fucking RETARD that you don't agree with me. Sycophantroll: I just don't fucking know how you were delivered by a doctor without them noticing how GOD DAMN retarded you are, User 1, and putting you in a fucking WHEELIE bin before your mother could experience the DISGRACE of seeing your KITTEN BUMMING face. Hey everyone, let's GET this fucker! Fanaticism: Kid, you just need to get your facts straight, kid, listen, I am more experienced, kid, so, child, infant, go back to learning dogs and cats, child, progeny, spawning, before I have to explain, even though I shouldn't have to because I am wiser and better than you, why cats are clearly better than dogs, kid. Sycophantroll: Yeah incontrol, just lay off it ok, we all need to calm down. etc. | ||

Title: "Animal Rights" Respond against a pro-animal stance citing personal experience. Why would arguing against animal rights be a troll? How else are you supposed to respond when people get all butthurt over a video about drowning a kitten? So much "how could you harm such an innocent being" never mind that cats are the most vicious killers around. Those things are songbird serial killers. Then there's the usual comments about how "I'd like to drown him" because these idiots are more concerned about animals than their fellow humans. Maybe that's the effect of murderous video games and violent movies kicking in Fucking Hollywood. You knew the dog would survive Independence Day while we get desensitized to seeing humans killed off. So we end up with a bunch of pussies who will wear leather and eat Big Macs but hate on an award winning kitten drowning film when they don't even know the background. Fucking thing could have had a terminal illness or something. And even if it didn't, it's just a goddamn animal. | ||

This troll is the kind of troll that can potentially illicit all of the reactions/responses that the other trolls cause combined, by causing confusion. His defence is built on that very same confusion. People aren't sure whether to flame him or ignore him, or try to be his friend, all at the same time, because they can't quite work out what exactly he's saying. Did he just insult me, or am I getting the wrong end of the stick? Or is he getting the wrong end of the stick? Is it because English isn't his first language? Was that post directed at me? Was that a typo? He didn't really mean my mum, did he? All of those dilemmas and conflicts are what the Miscommunication/Confusion/Riddler Troll thrives on. | ||

I expect 90% of the previous replies in this thread to be transparent troll attempts, so I won't even bother reading them. | ||

I basically disagree with this "troll" thing all together. I Especially hate it when someone calls someone else a troll just because this person says something the other person doesn't agree with at all. The term "troll" is ridiculous and some sort of black/white- super easy way of categorizing someone as "dumb". Using the term "troll" is actually quite stupid and says more about the person using it than the person accused of being a troll. I mean yeah, some people troll for the fun of it with an obvious ironic reference to what the term "troll" means but these people aren't serious. Even the list that Fanaticist gathers in the end of his post is mostly people being ironic and "trolling" for fun, like HotBid. A more serious troll is HamerD, since he isn't being ironic. However I don't see him as a troll, basically because I disagree with the whole "troll" thing as a label. Anywho. | ||

this guide opened my eyes, that guy gets so aggro in his power rank defenses and his love of sea[shield], i sometimes wonder if he does PR as an insurrectionist tactic ps good job trolling in your guide to trolling EDIT: actually i think its a fusion style, 1, 2, 4 are all taken care of (everyone reads pr; his choices are always controversial; he is a mod), he just excels at rejecting every objection to his exact order with advanced tactics like caps and ad hominem | ||

Most of the trolls you describe are preforming low level harassment in forum threads, attempting to get under someone's skin with brute force insults and contrary opinions, mostly creating useless noise. You completely forgot to mention higher level trolling antics. Here is a basic example of advanced trolling: You create a whole new ironic and satirical version of reality that says the things one demographic would like to say but never has because they were afraid everyone would point and laugh at them. This site / blog / persona should look like a shining banner of logic and reason to them while being an obvious joke to everyone else. Then you sit and wait while a following accumulates, and you siphon in dirt on them in every form possible. Get them to say brutal and hypocritical things, then, at a critical moment, you strike, changing personas from their dear leader to that of an average netizen, and you point at your creation and say "Hey guys, look at this!" Diggers, /b/ and others will be driven to your creation like bees and sting anything and everything in sight. Then, at your creation's darkest hour your disciples will turn to you for help. At this point, you tell them you are really pissed off and have made a video blog about it, and you are going to "start saying what we should have been saying all along", then link to + Show Spoiler + Another good example is the yes men. | ||

While he might be serious noone can be that stupid to throw in extremely oddball views and not knowing that it will cause a debate. I guess he is saved by his english alot of times. But yes I guess he is a Troll? since you cant really be sure. He could also be trolling like 50% of the time and noone would notice the difference. | ||

Perfect example of someone who definately isn't a troll. This is so retarded. So a troll is basically anyone who stands out, essentially bringing uniqueness to the table? Ehh, what? Isn't this OP a huge attempt at trolling... =) Fanaticist tries to be witty about "trolls" but ends up being a troll himself. | ||

I love adding the lyrics into posts. That made me laugh reading those quotes it doesn't even matter how hard I tried, I laughed. But basically the whole guide is the blind leading the blind, because no one sees the seventh sign. I think he missed a few types of trolls. I have trolled having people being my proxy , I give them words to say and they say it. And influenced the forum to word filter certain words that really don't mean anything. Funny guide, put the secret practice out in the open so it probably wont be fun anymore. | ||

This is also probably the most common IRL trolling... ex: "Paul speeds all the time! lol!" "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? PAUL DRIVES LIKE A GRANNY" "What? No way man, he's on an illegal underground drifting circuit." "Dude, you don't even know Paul" "I know him better than you if you don't think he burns rubber!" | ||
