Stop being stupid. How is making people laugh not a good intention? Opinions vary, I for one find most of his trolls funny.
Making ppl laugh is not always good, because ppl can be bad and nice in the laughter. An evil person can laugh at his victims, as much as agood person can laugh with his friends, there is a big difference.
Now, a troll is someone whom at times (this is imo only) provides a comical relief, the problem is here at what cost?
If the relief is at the expense of a person or the point that person is trying to make (and for arguments sake lets say its a good, valid and important poi) then its to the loss of the people around them.
Now, modern day stand up comedians are in some way trolls, as they are one of the last forms of accepted forums where you can be known, and say Un-PC remarks and criticize society without getting certain subsidies as a response.
And I would not have a problem with trolls on this forum IF THEY WHERE FUNNY, the fact is that most of us are not funny. Deadbolt does do some posts that causes some cracks in my funny bone but at apart from him but that does not make the posts justifiable or appropriate.
Of course I know that pleading to a trolls sense of logic and reason would be as pointless as trying to get the Tea Party Movement to stop recruiting inbred morons from Texas.
But can we please try and keep certain threads and points clear of unnecessary drivel?
