I don't know what they get out of it, honestly. I think they think they're all hard core for bad-mouthing people over the web, when really they just look stupid. OR some people just love to argue. and I have got to admit, it's kind of amusing to watch sometimes. It depends... I don't mind if people are having a mature debate, but when they start throwing out names for no reason, typing in all caps, etc. that's when I get kind of annoyed and leave. but I also think it's annoying when people get offended by EVERY LITTLE THING. I'm not a fan of conflict myself, but I also realize that this IS the internet, so there is going to be some arguing. If you don't like it, then you can leave. Martha

I **** when people insult each other online, it is cowardly and pathetic of them. I generally respect all other people online, and if they are rude to me, I just ignore them. By the way, not in a rude way, but you could really work on your spelling, that way I could take you more seriously. I'm with you on how people get nothing out of being rude online. Beverly

I guess some people are just disputatious and like arguing and picking fights. Gilbert

Don't give the trolls the attention they are striving for. Stacy
