Hokay, so, everyone has different trolling styles. There is no exact one trolling method, and I recognize this. Otherwise, we’d all be doing the same ****, and it’d be boring as all hell.

So, here’s how I troll.

First off, I make fun of myself nearly as much as I make fun of the other person, because I already have no self-esteem, which in turn, makes me laugh even harder at them. I usually lurk for a while in a forum looking for a topic that’s touchy, or a person that can easily be targeted, and I jump on it, springing an attack pretty much with the crap I got in front of me. Usually, their attempts at fighting back only end in me laughing at them, as you can’t hurt self-esteem that isn’t there in the first place.

What’re your styles.

I’ve found that amplifying and projecting my odd quirks seems to work quite well. Like fapping to birds and jets. Good god, you know how many topics and “discussions” that alone has popped up? It certainly doesn’t define my life, but in that topic, everyone loves acting like all I do all day is jerk off to pictures of falcons and F-16s. I also do the “acting bumhurt” thing… seriously, look at this. WHY WOULD I CREATE A MAKESHIFT FORUM FOR PEOPLE TO REPLY… if I weren’t just trolling for people to reply?! Good god. The lulz continue to this moment though, people spreading that link around like “look how bumhurt you got over that, omfg!”.

Techniques I’ve found ineffective:

– The “random ****” posting. I see them everywhere, yet for some reason, despite my pinpoint accuracy on hitting a “lol wut” herve, the topics never take off. Could be because of my character that’s posting it, everyone’s expecting bird ****ing and bumhurt ****ing. *shrug*

– The serious posts. Instantly derailed into “but ur a fabulous person” or just no replies at all (probably like this one).

It’s fun. For a while, it wasn’t so fun and I was actually quite bumhurt. But then I found the entertainment in just watching people respond to the bumhurt, and kept it going for the lulz. I was serious about quitting FWZ though. I hold my avatar as a very important symbol (I spent at least 2 hours in Photoshop on my first avatar here), and it really ****ed me off when people kept switching it. I found that I could just put a little disclaimer in my sig, and that was that. No more bumhurt.

But it’s still fun rocketing through the Flamebate leaderboard. Log in to see images!

Admittedly, I really don’t give a **** what you do. I jumped on for the laughs, and I do it all for the laughs. Any bumholishness I do in the RP forums? Well, yeah, I kinda do that outside of the RP Forums, but the only reason I really jumped on is because you’re an easy target. Log in to see images!

Yes, actually. No RP. What, you didn’t even think that was humanly possible?

I just don’t jerk it around the clock like this forum would like to imply…

I know. I very much know. I just don’t exactly know how to bring up “Ohai, I fap to birds, jets, and pilots, can you halp me?”. You know?

<.<

Maybe this is a discussion more suited for the RP forums. It’s practically a civilized troll.

Come now, this is a discussion of trolling tactics. I really am not getting trolled by anything in this. XD I don’t get trolled by anything much at all, really.

I LOVE LAGUNA. I ALSO LOVE SUCKING FAT male reproductive organS.

...tactics?

Surely actually thinking about what you’re doing defeats the purpose of trolling in the first place?

Pleugh, the term ‘trolling’ is pretty much indefinable anyway

But whatever, all I do is yell “GET THE **** OUT” and a certain racial slur at people – it gets the job done and I enjoy doing it Log in to see images!

PS requesting this be moved to General RP

I’m not really RPing in it, so, er….. Eh, ah well.

Sometimes, I think out what I’m gonna do before I troll. Other times, I jump right in.

As I said, sometimes, I like to think about the Forum, and think about what exactly’ll make them the most ****ed so I can laugh at them more.
