Are sporking them allowed? More specifically, are sporking deliberately made trollfics allowed?

And the reason they were sporked is that they were awful. I mean, in an objective story sense. Not because they were trollfics. Though, there is a lot of overlap between badfic and trollfic, due to bad writing being an easy trolling technique. It is also not clever or funny, and just plain amateur, at least when it's not used as satire.

Actually, confirmed trolls are, from what I understand, better to go after when looking for a trollfic, since calling an unconfirmed troll a troll can be seen as a jab at the author.
As for deliberate troll, isn't anyone who writes a trollfic doing it deliberately...? Since the definition of a troll is doing something to provoke a reaction out of people. -

... in refusing to admit that it's a troll, and missioning it entirely 'straight'. (Per the PPC's 'certain point of view' laws of nature, that would prevent a troll-entity forming...)

Falchion and the Fisherman already missionned trollfics, so it should be okay. Be warned though, both of them showed the troll as a dangerous opponent to the Agents.

In pretty much every continuum known, trolls are powerful, dangerous creatures. One that's intelligent enough to know how to provoke people would be even more so.
