Trolls are stupid becaue they are like Orcs. All muscle and no brain. Like the dinosars that evolved into chickens and are now being the ones being eaten. Oops, wasn't supposed to talk about darwin. sorry :P
I speak what's on my mind.

Which is why nothing I say makes sense.

Orcs aren't that dumb...merely think of a person with a slightly below the average male, and add about 30% more testosterone. Although some of the orcs were quite cunning but those were few.

Exactly, the Orcs in Warcraft are super smart. The orcs in the Lord of the Rings have the intelligence of a human. In all fiction with Orcs in it they are smart.

I think factions are better than races. So Races who are a like should be factioned together not everyone for himself. Factions look and are more fantasy rich. And besides how can trolls form civilisation, their IQ is nonexistent, trolls should be leaded by some darker and more cunning mastermind.

As I have already stated awhile back, the only reason trolls are never considered smart is because no one has ever portrayed them that way!!! In my third party campain im making the Trolls about as smart as the Orcs from Warcraft III (If u havent played the game u must).

I did and the orcs in warcraft 3 is overall not the brighest bulb. Not quite dumb but by no means smart. Only thrall was and that's because he was raised by humans. He's in the official books which came out before w3 to give a bit of backstory for some things.There merely human intelligence at best. As for the trolls in w3 there quite smart, having made grenades among other things. Also as for trolls in general they have intellinge just a bit worse to as smart as an orc.Just because soemone in battle screams and charges doesn't mean there dumb. It means there uncultured and uneducated most likely. Or have found a 700lb behemoth screaming SCARES PEOPLE!

Wayfarer Said
He had some of his theories by a hunter in South America who catched rare animals for scientists in England. The hunter developed some ideas about the evolution of animals and Darwin adopted it in his work. Yes their are some holes in these theories for example the human connectors but most stuff is prooved. Some others couldn´t be because the connectors couldn´t be found but what are some thousand years.
Elvish Pillager Said
I don't know what exactly you're referring to by "evolution" (which makes it impossible to refute what you say --- I should remember this tactic for my next stupid debate), but in any case, there are many parts of the theory of evolution which are not only taken to be true by the vast majority of the scientific community, but is also scientifically proven.[1] Then, there are other parts, which many morons accept because they've been taught it, many other morons reject because they've been taught that, and the very few sensible people who are left are divided about as evenly as any random even division among sensible people you can get.

I generally accept it, in the first place because I have seen no non-circumstantial evidence against it, and secondly because I find that the people who reject it are more moronic than the people who accept it.

However, I/we don't want to get into a debate about it!


[1]"scientific proof" is not really the oxymoron it appears; "scientific" is a qualifier which states that the proof is not really proof, alleviating the illogic.
I have a quick question for both of you fellows. What HAS been proved? If I may ask, the defense you are taking seems to be a very low one indeed. "If we believe what we are told enough, then it's true"

This isn't a very accurate defense so if I may ask elaborate upon the answer and E-Mail me at lewisfam66@Yahoo.com.

As trolls are mythycial in nature the only thing one can do is go off what games, legends, stories, folk tales etc say. Until someone bags a troll we are prooving it with what there is out there. besides when did either of use mention Darwin and his theories??
