    Trolls, do you like them?

    I see some troll forums (as in, forums for forum trolls) where being a troll is actually a good thing. So, do you like them?

    My daughter likes the trolls with the fuzzy hair and jewels in their bellies. I don't think anyone likes forum trolls... not even other forum trolls.

              I'd rather my forums be host to friendly discussion, or none, rather than unfriendly members with a nasty attitude.

                Depends on what kind of troll they are...

                Trolls spreading false information to intice conversation (or rather, heated discussion) might be good to get more people to register.

                Trolls posting for the sake of attacking other users on the other hand, is not a good thing...

                      Aren't trolls, other than being fuzzy creatures, the members that cause flame wars.?

                        I rather have good content on a forum, then a lot of content. forum trolls are there to be causing havoc, and they're not welcome on my forums. They're free to participate if they can be constructive, on topic and stay within the forum rules. I don't "hate" trolls, but I dislike them and certainly do not welcome them.

                          I'm proud to say our members make short work of any visiting trolls.
                          They never stay long.
