	As most species of mythological troll can only be totally defeated through the use of fire or acid, many internet users assume this will be true of the internet troll. However, the internet troll is a [[Powergamer\|Min-Maxing Powergaming Wanker]], and always has some combination of templates and one-level PrC dips to make it immune to Flaming attacks, or worse still is able to feed off them and increase its Trolling ability. This is the reason 3 trolls seem to pop back up and start three more worthless [[RAGE]] threads for every one that is defeated by logic or sage, neither of which are listed as doing fire or acid damage in the [[Dungeon Master's Guide\|DMG]] or [[Player's Handbook\|PHB]]. [[Monster Hunter International\|At least one work]] of [[Urban Fantasy]] has made the obvious combination of having internet trolls that are also monstrous trolls.

			Note that calling someone a “troll” has also become an excuse to quickly dismiss an opinion one disagrees with, despite the possibility that said opinion may be perfectly valid and reasonable.
