Trolls Trolling Trolls occurs when [[trolling]] either becomes semi-acceptable (thanks to those [[moralfags]]) 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 [[newfags]], lose sight of what they're doing and eventually turn on each other.
As there are so many, many complete and utter fucking 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 you 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 users' time, it also means the genuine cockbites and [[internet celebrity|pseudo-celebs who think they run the net]] are being left unmolested. Clearly these trolls are not fulfilling their duty.
Once a veteran troll succumbs to lulz-blindess he quickly becomes a target for newer wannabe trolls, thus destroying his well-earned e-reputation in one fell swoop. The only solution is to try some [[IRL Trolling]]. Although this may lead to the final stages of [[Chronic Troll Syndrome|CTS]] it [[Jail|reminds people how drama can be created very quickly]].
This is rather difficult to do as [[anonymous|anons]] tend not to practice on each other. Indeed the excuse "HA! I tutally trolled u guise yur all n00bs!" tend to be written by [[SpleeNfat|faggots who haven't got a fucking clue on how to troll successfully]].
There are however different methods:
How to Troll a Troll
# The original troll will target a certain person or group with the intention of leading them to [[epic]] [[butthurt]]
# In the course of doing this, the original troll may accidently make a stupid mistake.
# A second troll (who may or may not have been a victim) exploits this mistake
# The original troll is too humilated to carry on, thus flees from the website he was targeting
Trolls Trolling Trolls
# One troll deliberatly acts like a [[fucktard]] in order to gain attention
# A second troll, believing the first troll is [[serious buisness|being serious]], attacks them using another extreme form of fucktardedness.
# The two will banter back and forth, one thinking that he is totally [[pwn|pwning]] the other.
# The end result it either:
:# One gives up and leaves. The other (wrongly) thinks he has [[fail|won]].
:# Both realise they have made a stupid mistake and claim it was all a joke. Honest.
You may need to read the title twice. Slowly.
One must remember that not all trolls are in it [[for the lulz]], or even because they genuinely enjoy trolling. Some people become trolls to [[pussy|avoid being targeted themselves]], hoping that by spouting [[forced memes]] and pissing in oceans of piss (Trolling targets such as [[Chris-Chan]] and [[Spax3]], where their contributions will go unnoticed or have no impact) that legitimate trolls will leave them alone.
It's usually quite easy to tell a true troll apart from a scared kid pretending to be a troll. Most fake trolls will still openly advertise their being a [[furry]], [[weeaboo]], [[DeviantART|TARTlet]] or [[Retro Video Game Kid|retro kid]] on their [[YouTube]] channels and [[Myspace]] accounts (If they've truly [[Religion|converted]] to trolling, chances are, they would [[delete]] any incriminating evidence of their shameful pasts).
It is in cases like these that trolling "trolls" is warranted. Fake trolls do a grave disservice to the fine men and [[women]] who dedicate their lives to [[Psychopath|ruining the lives of others]]. After all; if they weren't busy pretending to be trolls, they would be just the same as any other potential target a troll might pick. Fake trolls will usually drop the act after being called out on their [[bullshit]] by whoever it was who drove them to faking in the first place. However, if a fake troll claims to be committed to the cause, it may take dropping their [[dox]] or [[Public e-stonings|reminding them in public]] that [[Truth|there is no difference between them and the people they now claim to hate]].
Occasions such as these are rare. One example comes from [[SpleeNfat]] and his [[Anti-Encyclopedia Dramatica.com|AntiED wiki]]. [[Hypocrite|SpleeNfag tried to stop trolls trolling by trolling them]], which did not last long. While pretending to be a [[l33t]] troll trying to milk the [[lulz]] out of [[ED]], another user (pretending to be a member of his AntiED wiki) both [[trolled]] and [[Rickroll|Rickroll'd]] him. It should be noted however that [[SpleeNfat]] was never a true troll or member of anon, just a bucket full of failure.
