But...
It's fun to feed trolls.
They say so stupid things when you do!
And they still get banned anyway...
I'm always far more entertained by the stupid things people
being trolled say.
That. If you are letting yourself be trolled you deserve to be trolled, imo. The reason trolls 'do it' as the OP states is that they are trying purposefully to piss you off, annoy you or make you show your bad side. Seriously replying them in a pissed off or annoyed way means that they've achieved their goal with usually little effort - if you're stupid enough to let that happen to you, I *am* going to laugh about it.
That said, while there's plenty of stupidity around (heck, even here), the best and only way to deal with a troll is the one stated in the OP. We only seem to get horrible trolls around here who just spam racial slur and it doesn't seem like anyone here is stupid enough to actually fall for that and reporting and move on is simply the easiest way of dealing with them.
