'Outsmarting' Trolls Stamps

No exceptions.

No, seriously! Trying to "outsmart" or "be above" any good troll just leads to you looking like you're seriously butthurt.

Wanna know how to beat trolls?
Ignore them completely.
Not post deviations and journals about how much you don't care, or how you're "stronger" than that or whine about them or try to act "smart", or how you're "fighting back" against them and their 'tyranny'.
Ignore them. Give absolutely no reaction.

Trust some first-hand experience: it's no fun to troll when you don't respond. Don't try to act smart, don't try to look like you're above it, and don't try to fight back.
You will not win. If you don't just ignore them, I don't have sympathy for you.
