Why do so many people answer the questions that are clearly just posted to antagonise or get a rise out of people? If these stupid aggitators were ignored wouldn't they get bored and stop? How many people bother to report abuse when they find inappropriate questions or ads amongst the legit questions?

Actually this is a forum that's purpose is the sharing of information. It's supposed to be a kid friendly site. And I knew when I posed this question that it was going to draw a lot of the trolls out of the woodwork.

Good point answerer # 10? I am just trying to find out if this frustrates anyone besides me, and also do others report abuse? Isn't the whole point of the report abuse option so that participants can help weed out the trouble makers? I don't think it's unrealistic to expect that people use this forum appropriately.

I always report abuse if I see it, and I never answer trolls. It frustrates me when people do answer, because it just prompts them to do it again and again.

This is a world wide forum, do you really think people will not respond because the questions are there to antagonize? The majority of the people who are on here are here for fun. I know I am. If you don't like what you read, then simply don't read it. It doesn't do any good to get upset about it because it will never stop. Relax, and have fun.

I am with you, I just pass over the obvious ridiculous questions that are so stupid or offensive they just are there to aggravate others. I start to answer then I think hmmmmm do I really want to give this person any attention? NO

I never answer them, but they keep coming back. I don't even waste my time reporting them because there is no point because there is thousands of them on here.

They will keep asking them no matter what because they just want attention. I report spam regularly.

You're giving them attention by posting this question, too.
