L. Ron Hubbard, because it happened more recently and the lies are better documented.

That doesn't make him a better troll, it just makes him disgusting.

Consider: Joseph Smith had been trolling for at least 100 years prior, set up a theocracy town in Illinois, started a mass movement which amassed in Utah, was a polygamist of epic proportions, and made into a martyr by his opponents.

"troll" isn't a toy bud, grow up and leave.
Protip: Not everyone seemingly batshit insane is "trolling".

Neither of them were insane. They didn't believe the shit that they were promoting.

True, but people were much less educated then and information was not as easily spread as today.

Yes. He lied about many things, such as his affair with Fanny Alger.

Not to mention when he got caught cheating, he said it was God's will. Same with the golden plates deal. Also, he had a semi legitimate shot at becoming the President.

I freaking love Joseph Smith. He got away with so much. But I think that his various deceptions show that he didn't believe his own lies.

It's believed that it's a common Masonic distress signal by raising your hands and elbows above your head to form a square and yell, "OH LORD, MY GOD, IS THERE NO HELP FOR A WIDOW'S SON?"
Varying accounts of Joseph Smith's death claimed he was doing that and got only the first four words out.
