People who hate Firefly? 'Cause they don't seem like mighty nice people, from what I saw.

EDIT: Er, I've seen.

When you can't run, you crawl, and when you can't do that you sit still and watch episodes of Firefly.

Trolls are people that insult others to get a response. There's a better definition, but... I'm lazy.

And, no, they're not just restricted to Firefly haters. They're everywhere.

EDIT: Guess I'm not so lazy after all.

"A troll is someone who comes into an established community such as an online discussion forum, and posts inflammatory, rude, repetitive or offensive messages designed intentionally to annoy or antagonize the existing members or disrupt the flow of discussion."

Well, ain't that just shiny.

Guess no matter where you are, there'll always be people there willing to bring you down for a bunch of laughs.

Resist the urge to troll. That is all.

Trolling is the last thing I'll ever do, trust me. (Can I use trolling as a verb? ;P)

Those little things always used to scare me when I was little...

Any of y'all ever been to the Serenity board at the IMDb? There's a group of trolls over there who just LOVE to talk about how the film failed at the box office.

Troll: a type of halfling, specifically a dragon/human hybrid. Often deformed, and typically with strong innate magical ability. With training, trolls can become powerful mages (due to the merging of dragon and human magic). Also called ogre, goblin, or orc.

Other halflings include Nephilim (human/faerie hybrid) and Elves (dragon/faerie hybrid).
