What i have also noticed is that ATS isn´t as easy piece of cake than they thought it would be. I see these people coming and going.
In informational war you fight against shills, who try to influence the public with feelings more than realistic data, with real trustworthy and official neutral information.
The worst thing you can do is add a link to major news channels then you get the ball bouncing back to you.

Look one of the groups I talked about is forming before our eyes. Same posters, same posters congratulating each other ,and same posters trying to shout an opposing view down without admitting these tactics or well-known.

Good post, I used to do that on other sites. Not so much here, but it is infinite fun when you are experiencing a 3 to 4 on 1 attack ( GROUP) and you can throw their tactics back in their face and occupy the entire group by yourself. (it keeps them from ganging up on someone else)
Turn around theirs words and actions, taking them out of context and amplifying them to drown out any denial (making denial seem like admission of guilt).

There was not a doubt in my mind that the group would show up.

I just troll them, at great length, evetytime I see them.
Rule number 1 make it personal. Emotion is the kryptonite of reasoned debate.
Rule number 2 always make outrageous claims. Let them waste their time trying to source your claims
Which brings us to rule number 3 never provide a single spec of evidence for anything you claim ever!!
Rule number 4 deflect deflect deflec . The better or more accurate their argument, the the easier you act like it is to just toss it aside like it was the dumbest thing you ever heard.
Rule number 5 at no point must the troll ever address a single thing they say that is relevant to the discussion.
Rule number 6 insult constantly. One must be very subtle here. Flat out insults will get you into trouble, and gain you nobody on your side.a good example would be "everyone knows "blank" if you don't your an idiot" or "only a moron would believe "blank".
This allows you to keep them angry after your use of rule number 1.
Rule number 7 use things like others agreeing with you as proof of your claims. Just keep hammering this point home, it is infuriating.
These7 tips should help you troll someone into a fit of rage in no more than a dozen posts if done correctly.

And if you follow this advice here on ATS, you will most likely find yourself either Post Banned or completely banned.
We do not endorse trolls here. Giving advice on how to be a troll here is not exactly helping add content or facilitate discussion here on ATS.
I would HIGHLY advise anyone here on ATS to tread lightly if you decided to follow and do the above quoted post.
