My experiment. First try, too. At the moment of posting, it had 551 points. Could have gotten more, but I got bored.

STEP 1

Come up with a title. It can be several things: Whiny, self-loathing usually works for sympathy upvotes. Or go with a "I am woman, hear me roar"ish title. Something about how much sex you're having, or how you don't need men; whatever you want. At this point, technically you don't even really need a link to post with it, since the title will garner upvotes by itself.

STEP 2

If you have to pick an image or a gif, go with something from Supernatural. I don't know what it is, but trollx fucking digs that shit. Perhaps it's just the concept of terrible writing. Real recognizes real.

STEP 3

Act like you're socially retarded. Act like you have no friends that you can talk to, and trollX is obviously the most acceptable, public forum to vent on. Come up with a backstory that, if you want to milk for future karma, you can append with several updates afterwards showing that you're overcoming the odds (all with Beyoncé being fierce gifs).

STEP 4

Bring on the karma, baby. Of course, if you want easier karma just submit a shit ton of porn, but that's basically cheating.
