Why do these questions from trolls get such big responses?

Surely these people would be better finding something else to do. Why not encourage them to do so by ignoring them when they post stupid insensitive questions instead of feeding their stupidity?

As for those who said there's plenty worse on here - I agree with you. I just picked that particular troll because his posting was the one I happened to see just before I asked the question.

The BNP have been on here all day - again - posting racist comments. I'm more bothered about that then the occasional comedian.

Terrier and Venice Girl: The last time i Checked it wasn't a mandatory condition of use that you read and/or respond to any question that has been posted.

If these questions bother you so much might i suggest trying another web sight, or better yet pressing the off button on your computer.

P.S. There's no such thing as a stupid question, only stupid answers

I can't stand them! I try to report them, but I still see their question up. I almost think it's more up to Yahoo to police these forums more, clearly they do because they do deal with some reports, but not enough. Heck! There was one troll who asked a question, first in the wrong forum, and then it was obscene and offensive, so I said so, in what I thought was a dignified manner, and I get reported and my answer gets bumped for offending him?! Seriously?! But, you're right. We should just ignore them....

Probably because deep down a lot of us are just trolls.

People who ask these questions obviously lead sad lives and have too m uch time on their hands.

Just ignore them and let them get on with it.

Why does it concern you? I suggest simply ignoring those postings you don't like.

you are a dick on two counts, firstly so called "trolls" know exactly which buttons to press to get the reaction, secondly how stupid are the people who take these questions seriously.
