YAY.
Winning trophies gives life meaning.
Without all my awards and trophies I am nothing.

It seems a bit silly, like putting gold stars on an kindergarten student's forehead.

It really doesn't matter. Kids don't care.

I'm indifferent.
I didn't really care about IMDb's badges/awards but, as somebody else had mentioned, if it keeps users posting, then it's definitely somewhat of an advantage.

I can't vote until I'm sure what is meant by "trophies."
If a "trophy" is calculated by the sheer number of posts, in a given period of time - or, on a given board/thread - I would vote a strong no. There was something similar, posted once a week, on one of the "old IMDb" boards. The result was a flood of mindless posts that were in competition for nothing but numbers.
The (apparently, now defunct) "Forums," on Chef Jamie Oliver's site, offered "trophies," for volume. It got to the point that reading those posts was like watching the movie "Groundhog Day." The same thing over, and over.
If a "trophy," signifies something else, I'd need to know what that is, before casting a vote.

It tells you what the trophies are for (and they are not just posts).

They're not essential or anything. Just silly fun. Yay. As you said, just silly fun. Gives us something to strive for (or not LOL).

I was on IMDb 20 years but barely noticed those. Other than for the people creating Polls, I have no idea what the others were for or if I had any.

How about trophies that are tied in to specific boards? For instance, those who make X number of posts on the music boards gets a music lover trophy.
There can also be a trophy movie lovers, tv lovers, a gamer trophy, for politics, comics etc. It can even be more specific than that, i.e. trophies for regular posters in the rock music threads, superhero boards, harry potter, star wars etc.
