First, why "God is good?" then the poll is, "is hell good or bad?"?

Second, you don't define what you mean by good/bad.
Bad is just bad, an evil thing. When you do a bad thing you are doing something wrong, therefore sinful in your Gods view.

Am I correct?

My God is Just and True.

God did not make hell for us humans, but for the devil and his angels.
Still you think it's a bad place, so did your God make hell for the devil and his demons a bad place?

Did you know that God loves you so much that He is giving you a second chance to live?

"I also maintain that those who are punished in Gehenna are scourged by the scourge of love. For what is so bitter and vehement as the punishment of love? I mean that those who have become conscious that they have sinned against love suffer greater torment from this than from any fear of punishment. For the sorrow caused in the heart by sin against love is sharper than any torment that can be. It would be improper for a man to think that sinners in Gehenna are deprived of the love of God. Love is the offspring of knowledge of the truth which, as is commonly confessed, is given to all. The power of love works in two ways: it torments those who have played the fool, even as happens here when a friend suffers from a friend; but it becomes a source of joy for those who have observed its duties. Thus I say that this is the torment of Gehenna: bitter regret. But love inebriates the souls of the sons of Heaven by its delectability."

Hell is for the non-repentant sinners, so of course it's not a good place nor is it meant to be a good place. If you don't believe there is such a place then I truly feel sorry for you.

Well it's a bad place. Then does that mean your God (Jesus) can create something that ends up being bad for whomever.

Is hell a good or bad place?

If it is a good place, then why.
If it is a bad place, then why.

Or answer the poll.
Hell is a bad place, but I don't believe in Hell, I only believe in Heaven.

But that would mean that one could eventually accept such love if it is true, and therefore escape hell.

No, but it's not a good place either.

It's not a place at all.

If you are so inclined to say its not a place at all, why ask the question about hell if it doesnt exist?
