Skype is a troll's best friend. It allows one to call anyone in his own country for a monthly fee and there's no way of tracing it... sort of. Skype is the most useful tool ever for prank calls and, more importantly, harassing pedos.

Chatting on Skype
Skype tends to be totally populated with random Chinese women who passionately desire friendship, and in order achieve said aim take to messaging unsuspecting persons incessantly as soon as one logs on. A simple solution to this problem may be applied as follows:
- [21:09:04] Harmony 12 says: Hello..
- [21:09:36] Pepe says: Hi.. asl
- [21:10:02] Harmony 12 says: i am 23 f Im from china..
- [21:10:50] Pepe says: are you naked on cam on demand??
- [21:11:43] Harmony 12 says: what you do mean.. i do not know cam
- [21:12:09] Pepe says: I mean will you get naked and show us your tits on a webcam when I ask
- [21:14:34] Harmony 12 says: no I dont dirty chat
- [21:14:42] Pepe says: BYE
In addition to the friendship seekers, we also have the real "a/s/l" seekers, cam perverts, and general retards. Say you're female in your profile and watch the lulz come rolling in. The chats and casts are equally as easy to troll if you do it right.
Skypecast
Skypecast provides a free voice conferencing service, whereby the rooms are open to all Skype users to join.
Skypecast exists solely for the lulz; no other medium in the history of the internets has been so poorly engineered as to be as trollable as Skypecast. Like IRC, Skypecasts have moderators and the moderators control whom can speak; however, there is no way to discern which users are talking at any given time, and moderators do not have the ability to kick users out of the room. As a result, any session with more than five users quickly becomes unmanageable, and the moderators have to figure out which of the users is playing recordings from Hitler rallies by trial-and-error. Experienced Skypecast trolls wait a random amount of time before the troll activation.
Successfully removing such distractions adds little to the actual value of the conversation. Most Skypecast conversations centre around different accents, the weather, time zones, and other such inanity that makes apparent the folly of Internet Humanitarianism; regardless of the potential good that could be accomplished through the application of new technologies to old social problems, such opportunities are impotently and irretrievably squandered, whereby such technologies end up actually detracting from humanity.
Skypecast Trolling PROTIPS
- Wait until the moderator has added at least two other participants, after being added yourself, start trolling.
- Play religious AM Radio.
- Formulaic American versus Eurofag and Canadafag trolls are super-effective.
- If you and another friend speak some other moonspeak language, join a Skypecast together and hold a side conversation init.
Sadly, the Skypecast feature was deleted on September 1, 2008 due to "problems" with the service. Many "broadcasters" bawwwed.
Free Calls on Skype
You can call mobile phones or old telephones using Skype. Although this costs money, every account has one free trial call. Just create a new account once you've used your free call.
