Trolls Trolling Trolls
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Trolls Trolling Trolls occurs when trolling either becomes semi-acceptable (thanks to those moralfabulous persons) or when targets become so used to trolling they can recognise one a mile away and try their best to avoid it. Like rabid cannibals the trolls, usually newfabulous persons, lose sight of what they’re doing and eventually turn on each other.
Doing it Wrong
As there are so many, many complete and utter ****ing morons swimming around this series of tubes we call the Internet there are plenty of people to choose from. One method of doing this is to act contrary to everyone else. If your are on an atheist website, flood it with fundamentalist propaganda. If you are on a website for animal rights, show them zippocat.
However taking the persona of an extremist freak often has its downside: some people think you are for real. These people think it would be great to troll you. These people, of course, are doing it wrong. This not only wastes both user’s time, it also means the genuine male reproductive organbites and pseudo-celebs who think they run the net are being left unmolested. Clearly these trolls are not fulfilling their duty.
Self-trolling
Self-trolling often occurs after playing forumwarz too much. This is when a troll makes too much effort to be noticed and all the other users simply ignore him. After making a complete tit of himself the troll will declare himself successful while everyone else facepalms.
*facepalm*
