Irrationally hating IL-2: Dover has become a religion for some. To a lesser extent, irrationally loving the game is also a religion for a few here. (Everybody has at least one religion, whether they realize it or not.) When you're trying to have a conversation with somebody who zealously practices a religion opposed to your own point of view, the big problem is the zealot is incapable of stepping back and reconsidering his own point of view. He genuinely believes he is being perfectly reasonable in aggressive proselytizing, and it's for your own good. The only solution is to not engage the zealots and look around for somebody more open minded to talk to. They can be harder to find, but they're out there.
Also, there's a subtle difference between a troll and an attention... word-that-means-prostitute. Learn to differentiate, and resist the impulse to give either of them what they crave. Getting angry at them serves no useful purpose. Ignore and move on.
