The only things that are capable of trolling us are: People with horrendous english skills and Elf loving snotling fondlers.

Toady's Law. In every fort, there is either by accident or design one thing which can happen — shouldn't ever happen, but can happen — which will lead to calamity and screaming. That thing will happen at the worst possible moment. Doors and butterflies, and all that.

I know I shouldn't, but I have to ask ... is that "... elf loving, snotling fondler." or "... elf-loving-snotling fondlers."?

Dwarf Fortress is a troll, we all know that.
If DF is a troll why are so few of the forum-goers trolls?

The Bay 12 way of trolling is to get the n00bs on their feet quickly enough that we can laugh at their inevitable disaster. 

We don't need to troll, the game does it for us.

I don't understand, though that is about right with anything DF related.
I just hope he dies the same death that all dwarfs deserve: liver disease.

I tend to agree with this. Compared to what the game does to our minds, anything we try to do to each other basically ends up helping.

We speed newbies to the clowns before they are ready for sadistic glee, and they end up liking us for it.

I think the amount of brainpower the game requires keeps most fools away, and the real trolls who survive keep playing end up respecting other players.  And then the game kills everyone and we are all happy.

Dont you mean a slower overly complicated death that likely leaves everything on fire and uninhabitable for generations?

Centration. Similar to Spacestation 13, but in 3D and first-person. Sounds damn awesome.

Ghosts possess people, which is identical to tantruming.
