Why do others respond to trolls?
Are trolls really as smart has they think they are?

You suppose these are the same jerks that drive around in cars yelling suggestive comments at cute chicks as they speed by?

Pretty much. You can't swing a dead cat without hitting a troll on IMDb. Sometimes half the fun is reading other members take them seriously.

What is so special on IMDb? Everyone here seems to be on it but me?
Alan Smithee wrote:
If you're into movies and/or TV it can be a very interesting place. You can look up actor's credits, their bio's, plots and trivia to name just a few things. You can go there to look up something specific and wind up someplace totally different. And then there are the message boards. Despite the trolls there are some nice people there. You should check it out, nephew. (Maybe it will help expand your horizons )

I will never understand it. I had a woman message me with a wish my child would get killed. That did it for me on that site.
