If all a troll posts is an opinion, fine that's an opinion, not a fact, just ignore it. If they post incorrect facts correct them with a reference to correct facts on the net. Nos

We can all sort it out with our minds. Kick back and be happy we have traffic here. Some may find this entertaining.

How many closed threads....? the trolls rule this forum! they flood with offtopic twaddle and brawl... and all the moderators do is closing threads. How bad. Get rid of the trolls and move all their flooding (which are more then 50% of flooded threads) into different threads. Don't let trolls rule this forum and don't let them destory communication with their hate.
