As the title says, what is your favorite type of damage and why is it your favorite type? Do you hope to see your damage type in Diablo III? I'll start with my favorite type of damage, which you may have learned from my name.
Poison is my favorite because it is the silent killer. It can also come in many different flavors such as neurotoxins, which attack the nervous system and another type of poison that attacks surrounding tissue, which can be seen from a brown recluse spider. It can be a hit-and-forget kind of deal which I have done with many monsters on Diablo II. It can also be used to help kill particularly tough bosses such as Duriel, where a modified hit-and-forget tactic killed him. Poison is for those who have the patience to deal with its many benefits. I hope to see poison in Diablo III as then I can continue with my name and my legacy.

For me it's frost/ice damage. I love slowin people down in their tracks and watchin them struggle as I'm as free as can be.

physical and poison is too... standard
I like frost concept (slow)
And I like lightning concept (random damage 1 to 100000....)
Fire is just basic damage who bring nothing in gameplay.
And magic damage in d2 is too ambiguous. I hope d3 will set it more clearly.
Definitely cold dmg. I would just wait to get that first +1-2 cold dmg small charm. I loved freezing people and watching them shatter. Plus if thy shattered they couldn't be rez'd.

Its really hard to say which is my favorite type, but from D2 i think i can say that pure brute physical damage is my favorite. There's nothing better than crushing your enemies with a botd thunder maul ^^
Other than that, i really liked the magic damage done by the necro's bone spells. I also like poison damage when its really deadly, you can watch your enemies die while you walk away...
And, all of the elemental damage types are always classics which is nice.
My favourite build is a bonemancer; I love the pure magic spells he casts. A focused shaft of pure magical energy cutting a path through enemies. Plus, it has an awesome sound when it pierces something *tshk*.
Honerable mentions go to cold and lightning. Cold is ridiculously useful and lightning is just erratic.

I liked Open Wounds. Not so much for the damage but concept about it. I wished that they could have done more things with open wounds.

It's called COLD in Diablo II, not frost, not ice, not water, not freezing, not nippy, not wintery, etc.!

I added it to my signature.
My second best source of damage is Lightning due to the damage range. Plus I like most of the lightning effects in D2.
