Forum Trolling

This is meant to be a quick overview of how to effectively, legally troll someone over the internet, in the form of debate. Note that these in constructions are for quick, blatant trolling--If you want to really get under an entire community's skin, try PsyOps.

Tips

While the ground rules are important, here are a few simple ways to make yourself seem more intelligent.

1. Use '--' and ';' correctly, so as to make yourself seem more intelligent.
2. To rebut an argument, break their post down into quotes, and rebut them sentence-by-sentence.
3. . Use lists, ASCII diagrams, images (if allowed), etc to illustrate your point
4. Point out every logical fallacy you can find in their argument (e.g. circular logic, naturalistic fallacy). A list of logical fallacies can be found in Wikipedia
5. Point out the other person's bad grammar and/or spelling in a condescending manor at the end of your post.
6. Use a thesaurus to find big words to use in your sentences, so it looks like you have a larger vocabulary and are therefor more intelligent.
7. Cite your sources, preferably in MLA format, at the bottom of your posts. You may also try using Chicago style citations to backup individual statements.

Prolonged Arguments

The longer you debate, the more opportunities will become available to you. Try to take advantage of all of these, as it will cause your opponent to RAAAAAAAGE.

1. No doubt your opponent will have 'moved the goalposts' (another logical fallacy, note this as well), and as a result there may be contradictions between their posts. Point out these contradictions.
2. If they resort to using abstract metaphors, apply these metaphors to something else, so as to make both the metaphor and the argument behind the metaphor seem useless.
   1. EXAMPLE: "The universe is like a book, and God is like an author" -> "Who's the editor? How do we know that Yehova and the universe are not the book and Thor is the author?"
3. Fragment your sentences. A moderate amount. To emphasize an argument or point.
4. Use quotes--lots of quotes. Preferably from famous people. Better yet, quote-mine anyone that they quote or cite for something that aids your argument.

Getting yourself out of a pickle

It is inevitable that, eventually, you will say/do something stupid. Here are some things that you should avoid, and ways to avoid them.

1. Increasingly long, drawn-out discussions on theoreticals. This becomes especially common when debating theists, as you'll somehow end up arguing about things *within* Christianity/Islam/etc, as opposed to whether or not Christianity/Islam/etc (or whatever religion/philosophy you're debating against) is actually true. In these instances, when in doubt, say "prove it".
2. If you find yourself lacking understanding of the subject (or part of the subject), wiki it.
3. If you run out of material or can't think, use Google to find other people who have argued on the same subject, and steal their arguments shamelessly. Just make sure they don't contradict anything that you've said.

Now, taking this advice to heart, TROLL! DO IT FGT!

Sites to Troll

Here is a quick list of some of the best places on the internet to troll.

Forums

This section includes any site where the main focus is discussion, including imageboards.

RevLeft

This site is full of pseudo-intellectual 16 year old Marxists, who advocate violent revolution and RAAAAAAAAAGE at sexism, and yet spend all their time talking about porn and /b/ in ChitChat, and who work at McDonalds.

• RevLeft

4chan

Full of faggots who discovered the site through myspace, and who think they are part of some special, unique cultural movement. This makes them much more easy to troll than any other chan. To troll, initiate OS flame wars, stupid attacks against Christians, stupid attacks against atheists, etc.

• 4chan

Social Networking

Any site filled with 15 year old years who have 200 'friends', and post themselves half-nude.

MySpace

Site is child's play. Just call people names, create a fake account to troll others, etc.

• MySpace

FaceBook

Slightly more mature, and therefor slightly more difficult to troll. Try going into polarized groups (AANR, I bet I can find 1,000,000 christians, Ultimate Muslim Warriors, etc), and posting inflammatory material. Flame wars over politics and religion start very easily.

Youtube

A site filled with angsty, retarded 16 year old camwhores. A breeding ground for trolls. Religion, especially, is bound to create shouting matches in video and comment form, between dozens of idiots.

IRC

IRC is inherently filled with drama, ironically making trolling both more easy and more difficult.

Linux

If OS flamewars are your thing, try joining #linux, #ubuntu, #suse, etc, on efnet, rizon, and any other large irc networks.

Music

Try altrock channels on efnet, where petty arguments over which band is better may arise.
