1. When you stand up to trolls by using their own tactics against them-- petty insults, sarcasm, twisting words, in an attempt to 'troll them back'.
2. When you PRETEND to stand up to trolls --- but your actual motive is to encourage flame wars and mistrust in general... by labeling an innocent poster as a troll and getting other posters to believe the label is true, so they turn against the falsely-accused.
3. Anti-trolling, ultimately, is just another form of trolling. However 'well intentioned' a so-called anti-troll claims to be, ultimately anti-trolling only gives a troll even MORE of the negative attention he craves, and encourages more posters to get angrier at each other, for stupider reasons.

Get the Anti-Trolling mug.by TheOfficialMemer69 December 5, 2016
Get the Troll Face mug.When someone online gives internet trolls the negative reaction they want. This of course is a very bad sign as all the person himself is doing is giving what the troll wants. The best advice to keep in mind would be not feeding the troll at all, simply ignore it, and walk away.
When you're feeding the trolls, you're basically falling under their trap. They want you to get offended and worked up about something. Think of it as feeding your evil wolf, the more you feel angry, offended and hateful, the more power you're feeding that evil wolf inside of you (this is of course a reference to the famous Native American tale Two Wolves).
At least show some respect for youraelf and don't give any trolls the offended reaction they so desperately want in the first place.

Get the Feeding the Trolls mug.A Troll. But a rare breed of Troll. The type that not only annoys people via the computer, but sends messages that are ones like death-threats and the like.
Most Death Trolls are cowards, who hide behind an anonymous name.
Death Trolls need to be wiped out, because they are easily one of the main contributors to Cyberbullying related suicide.

Get the Troll mug.1) Anyone who engages a troll intentionally or unintentionally, sometimes starting a flamewar. The people who react to a troll are trolls themselves. After all, if no one engaged the troll nothing would happen. There would be no trolls if there were no trolling idiots to engage them and feed them.
2) Anyone who feeds a troll.
