Why so many trolls?
Why are there so many trolls on here, and can anyone list out the worst of the trolls and anything about them? Just tell me about them so I don't associate with them...thanks

The Spyderco forum has always seemed to me not to be the kind of forum where we make troll lists. That can get subjective and is a bit too close to rolling in the mud. Something we strive to avoid. It's generally best to leave that kind of thing to the forum administrators/mods. They are pretty good, though usually work quietly. I'd honestly feel bad if they had to jump into a post due to my actions and I'd guess a lot of the regulars here feel pretty similar. Care for yourself, let the mods do the rest. :)

I laughed when I read this thread.
Here is my recap. Someone with the name "Large Marge" who had at most 4 posts when the thread was created and joined the forum this month is asking why there are so many trolls. Every bit of it sounds troll-ish. Wasn't "Large Marge" a troll character in a movie?
If you are serious, here are some things that I think cause it. I think it has to do with people believing the wrong side of the media and that only bad people carry knives. There are people out there that pretend to be things they are not. The whole zombie and tactical trends seem to dig at people to be more troll-ish as well.
Every forum I have ever seen has had trolls and I don't think this forum has a higher percentage of them, but the people here seem to get taken by them easier. When a troll starts a thread about why something sucks, you get all sorts of people who are normally very rational... get bothered and answer with their feelings and not with reason.
