This is partly why I'm so fascinated and disgusted by trolls and astroturfers. They erode trust in a given forum, which degrades the quality of discourse because no one wants to invest time in untrustworthy discussions.
Sometimes I wish I could get an honest answer from trolls about what they hope to achieve, but of course that will never happen.
