Different Kinds of Trolls.
Before you become a full fledged troll, you will have to know what kinds there are. This list isn't complete, as there are many kinds of trolls. This is just for a quick overview, so you don't have to read this part. It is recommended you be creative as a troll, so you can try different ways.
Vandal
- These are the most common types of trolls, and also possibly one of the simplest. Behavior includes: Blanking Pages, Replacing Content with Profanity, or Nonsense, and more. This is the recommended choice for beginners.
Impersonators
- These Trolls have only recently started to pop up, so they are more frequent right now. These trolls introduce them self as a famous celebrity, or a cartoon character. Usually a few days before trolling, they act like a productive user, and make at least one fanstuff. Then, they strike. And due to their trustfulness, It's likely that they'll only be blocked for a short time, and Unblocked again, if blocked again. And when they do get blocked, they'll always be likely to come back.
Page-Movers
- These trolls have a different method than others. They usually move peoples Fanstuff, or Userpages, into a different page, usually one with either profanity, or nonsense. Either is recommended for a striving Page-Mover Troll.
Sock-Puppets
- These trolls, are really just previous blocked trolls. They are multiple accounts used by the normal trolls. Usually with a different name. These trolls are respected in the troll community, as they usually never go for good.
Bots
- One of the most rare kinds of trolls. These are used by one person only, most of the time, using a bot program to Troll countless pages all at once. These are really respected trolls, due to the difficulty to revert.

Sysops
- These people you should fear. As they can block you for quite a while, even forever.

Yes. One Word. Run.
Bureaucrats 99% Spell the end for a troll.
Proprietors
- Don't bother going against these, you've died before you got to them. However, if you do get a chance, which is rare, change your I.P somehow. They'll block your I.P.
