If someone knows you're doing it you arent trolling, you're being an a***ole. Don't be the latter, which of course makes the former so just don't do it.

If they make you mad, and your posts clearly show it, you can't call them failtrolls. Well, you can, but you just look like you're trying to protect your pride.

Yeah, unless the content is relevant, a troll post can easily just become emotional flaming covered up with false logic.
And a little profanity to spice it up a bit.
<-- Speaking from experience.

Not necessarily. They might know you're trolling, but be mistaken about the manner in which you are trolling them. Let them catch your obvious troll method so that they feel safe while you pull your real scheme on them.

Really, the best kind of trolling is when they know you're trolling them and that still isn't enough to stop you.

Yeah, but you can call them low-class trolls. Any idiot can show up and post a lot of random swears, and that's sure to annoy some people, but we really ought to have higher standards.

And even then then what? I know how the phrase "if a bully is bothering you; ignore them" doesn't apply to real life but in regards to internet trolling it applies extremely. Flat out ignore them, or treat their words with a light touch and force a stronger belief on them. Even if you're unaware of the process of which they're doing it, you always have a manner in which to regress it into them just being jerks.

The problem is people don't know the definition of the word "ignore"
