Are people who respond to trolls with serious objections ignorant or just venting?

Trolls are usually obvious, but they always get a dozen or more people who respond with outraged indignation, and (even more funny to me) some answer as if to point out and mend the trolls socially ignorant views. I feel most people ignore these attention-seekers, understanding them to be such. So are the responders oblivious to the comical mischievousness of the trolls, or are they exercising an inherent need to argue, admonish, or abuse?
