Throughout the first half of 2009, Trollface quickly gained favor with Redditors and rage comic artists in particular, in part owing to the rapid growth of the /r/f7u12 subreddit around that same time. For a brief time, the face became alternatively known as 'the coolface' after a rage comic-style webcomic took off on 4chan and Ebaumsworld, though only for a brief period of time. In the following months, Ramirez' drawing quick gained traction on 4chan as the universal emoticon of an Internet troll and a versatile rage comic character.
