Scat Boy: @ Dilbert. What he's trying to say is he has a formula.
That's one of the many things that I pointed out in the post that you quoted. This is the only thing that you said that comes remotely close to being true. But, not for what you are trying to imply. The fact that I kept telling you that there is a purpose behind every word, sentence, and paragraph that I use in my replies should give you a hint of what I'm saying and doing. This "formula" is based on the fact that I have your people categorized into psychological profiles that you guys keep refining every time you guys reply. This "formula" involves crafting a reply that not only forces you guys to see that you guys are wrong, but also causes you guys to react a certain way. The strategy worked with you as well as with others.
Scat Boy: His response on the average are 17 words to 1.
Presenting a fact-based, reasoned argument takes more than just a few words. There is a structure to that. However, you only need a minimal amount of words to spew BS. Given that I also provide a purpose to every word that I use, that is intended to get the opposition to react a certain way, that also contributes to the maximum post. But, as I said in my previous reply, the more your arguments are full of crap, the better the chances that the reply would be "longer".
Scat Boy: I think he may have taken a debate class
I've never taken a debate class. The debate tactics that I use, on here, are learned from "hands on" experience. They're also learned from refining my tactics. Even you should know that when it comes to engaging in something that you consider fun, not only would you repeat it, you would learn and refine from what you did before to do that activity even better. For me, destroying you people in argument is one of these "fun time activities" that I engage in. Like any fun time activity, I simply get better at it in order to maximize the fun and effectiveness.
Scat Boy: that taught him that if you overwhelm people with inanities they will get tired of trying to follow your train of thought. (DEFLECTION OF OWN TRAITS ONTO OPPOSITION)
In order to dismiss any of my posts as "inanities", or to dismiss anything that I say as "inanities", you have to actually advance an argument countering what you feel are "inanities". You consistently failed to do that in this thread. In fact, you have consistently been in a retreat mode. Not only did you fail to defend your original position, you failed to defend the positions that you escaped to, and you failed to defend your strawman and red herring points.
One of the descriptions, of your debate tactics here, is "shoot and retreat". You did nothing to prove that anything that I said was "inane".
Like the others that I have debated, you find that it is easier to dismiss a fact-based, logical, reasoned argument as "inane" or as "just an opinion", then it is to actually attempt to "prove" me "wrong", or to prove your position "right".
No, there is no "getting tired to follow one's train of thought". All you had to do was take the time to read my replies, with the intention of understanding what it is that I was saying. You didn't do that. You got too emotional, and rushed to provide an emotional, fact deficient, reply... One that was deficient in fact, reason, and logic.
What you're really doing is getting tired of trying to be "creative" regarding your "shoot and retreat" tactics. It's much easier to argue from the facts, which are not on your side.
Scat Boy: ( In this case an aggregation of useless points of how he is superior) (DEFLECTION OF OWN TRAITS ONTO OPPOSITION)
Nowhere, in any of these posts, do I claim to be superior to anybody. When applicable, I do identify myself as having an advantage, relative to the people that I am arguing. My doing this isn't a declaration of "self-superiority". It's simply an example of my naming an advantage that I have where it is applicable in the argument.
These aren't "useless points". Every single word, sentence, and paragraph that I use, in these replies, have a purpose. They support the main idea, and supporting ideas, of my argument. Again, it's easier for you to dismiss as "useless points", a fact-based, reasoned, logical argument that you find impossible to engage without advancing strawman or red herring arguments.
Scat Boy: You have to look over all the self adoration. (DEFLECTION OF OWN TRAITS ONTO OPPOSITION)
If you want to take a good look at "self-adoration", just look at your commentary about your "pee pee". You've also advanced other commentary where you engage in self-adoration.
Nothing, in any of my posts, constitutes "self-adoration". Again, there is a purpose to everything that I say here. For example, one of the reasons to why I tell people like you that I will keep replying is that I know that the people that have replied to me beyond their third time replying are doing the very same things that you are accusing me of doing. This includes you.
Scat Boy: It is like a tick with him..
Yes, when it comes to these debates, I will stick to the opposition's arguments like a tick and consistently dismantle their arguments.
Scat Boy: Anytime he feels inferior
BWAAHAAAAAHAAAA! Baghdad Bob? Is this you?
False, at no time, either on this thread or on the other threads, did I "feel inferior". In fact, if you were to read the criteria that would be needed, for me to reply to the opposition, you would know that those criteria guarantee that I have a position of superiority over the opposition before even jumping into the debate.
I treat these debates like a combat operation. I will not jump into a firefight without fire superiority over the opposition. This is fire superiority when it comes to having the facts on my side when it is blatantly obvious that the opposition is wrong.
Scat Boy: he tends to try and fit as many of what he thinks are "humblebrags" in as he can.
Wrong. This is more proof that you have problems understanding English generated in a way that a fifth grader would be able to understand it. What part of the following statement did you not understand?
"As I argued earlier in this thread, there is a purpose behind every word, sentence, paragraph that I use in my replies." -- herfacechair
Again, I have you people categorized under certain psychological profiles. I didn't state anything here that constitutes a "brag" in any way, shape, or form. You are utilizing tactics that others, like you, have used before. Like the other people that I argued against, you are employing certain BS, in your arguments, with a certain objective that you would hope to be accomplished. In this case, hoping that I would stop hammering your BS.
If I say something, that names an advantage that I have, relative to the one that I'm arguing with, it has everything to do with what is being argued, and has nothing to do with "bragging". Whether that is the fact that I have a vantage point in what we are arguing, or to remind you that I've seen your tricks before. Consider these as "aids" or "hints" to help you exercise proper judgment in these arguments.
Scat Boy: Do you notice that even when you are not at odds with him, he seems to always try to impress you with what an amazing person he is?
You do you realize that I was disagreeing with him in that post, do you? Also, my response to him was more intended for you than it was for him. You should easily understand this given that your reply to him was mainly directed at me. Yes, I addressed his post, but turned around and let you know what you are up against given the tricks that you are employing to attempt to get me to stop hammering you.
You're not the first one to employ the nonsense that you employed in this thread. I've seen that very "playbook" in action on other threads and on other message boards. I've even seen it on Facebook. One of your goals, with the type of replies you've spewed here, is to attempt to exhaust the opposition. I'm letting you know that what may have happened in your previous arguments, with regards to exhausting the opposition, will not work with me. That pisses you off, like it pissed those that I argued with before you off.
Scat Boy: He wants you to respond to each of the comments he makes then he will take each of your comments and break them into smaller comments then you have to reply to each one of the micro comments until you just get tired of it.
Wrong. That's nowhere close to what I intend with my replies. Again, since you have problems with reading comprehension. The more BS that you spew, the longer my replies. The more you are persistent with spreading your BS, the longer my replies generally will be.
I've stated, in this thread, what I wanted you to do. One of them involves you reacting to my posts the way you have been reacting. Then, when you insisted that I stop hammering you, I explained to you what you had to do instead. Nothing, in my explanations of what I "wanted" you to do, involved doing what you say I wanted you to do.
Another thing, that I wanted you to do, was to purge your narcissism driven emotions when you read my replies. Of course, the fact that you wouldn't do that was a good indication that I got you good, as your responses consistently showed that narcissism driven emotion drives your responses.
Scat Boy: And then he calls it a win. (DEFLECTION OF OWN TRAITS ONTO OPPOSITION)
You actually proved the fact that I was spot-on regarding the psychological profile that I have you slotted into:
"Replying gives you a false sense of 'victory' as well as a false sense of control." -- herfacechair
"This bothers you, doesn't it? My doing that denies you even a false sense of victory. You're attempting to slide your BS into the equation without it getting stomped and splattered onto your face. I've lost count of how many times other liberals have advanced this same complaint, without recognizing the fact that they're repeating themselves." -- herfacechair
What I actually called "a win":
"You lost the argument the moment I jumped into it, you've retreated from your original argument, as well as from your follow-on red herring and strawman arguments." - herfacechair
"The onus is on the opposition to consider that reality before arguing a debate that they've lost the moment that I've jumped in." -- herfacechair
Scat Boy: If you notice very few folks here talk about themselves.
False on two main counts.
First, my mentioning my advantages is not me "talking about myself" for the simple sake of "talking about myself". My mentioning my advantages has everything to do with what I am replying to and nothing to do with bragging.
Second, I notice other people here, including you, "talking about themselves". You guys do this frequently. I didn't see you complain about people "talking about themselves" when Private Luke_Wyatt consistently "talked about himself" regarding his phony or embellished military service.
Scat Boy: They stick to what they have seen or know.
That's exactly one of the things that I am doing here. What you state here captures two of the criteria that I use to jump into an argument. "Seen" in terms of "first-hand experience". "Know" in terms of studied/researched experiences. Yes, I'm sticking to what I have seen in known. The other people are doing what you are accusing me of doing, this includes you.
Scat Boy: He bases all of his comments on how has fought so many battle of wit with scores of folks and always comes out the victor. (DEFLECTION OF OWN TRAITS ONTO OPPOSITION)
What I've actually said:
"I present a fact based, reasoned, logical arguments against your drivel, as well as that of your liberal allies." -- herfacechair
I've said this to you and to others, and presented this to you numerous times. But my arguments are based on the facts, not on "fighting any battles of wit". This is indicated by the criteria that I use before jumping into a debate:
I don't argue just any topic under the sun. There are certain conditions that have to be met before I would argue a topic.
1. I have to have more knowledge, on the topic being argued, then the opposition. This knowledge has to be based on first-hand experience, studied/research experience, or a combination of them.
2. The opposition, that I intend to argue against, that I will continue to argue against, have to clearly be wrong.
Anybody, with reading comprehension abilities, would see what I meant by coming out as a victor in these debates. A person wins an argument by advancing the facts, logic, and a reasoned argument against an opposition that's not able to defend their own position or who are unable to argue against the other argument.
Then I said this:
"Your meltdown, here, is no different from the meltdown I've seen from others like you over the past 13 years that I have debated online. You probably think that you are the only one, that is pulling the tricks that you have been pulling here. If so, you're mistaken. Others have also tried that, I recognized your antics, throughout this thread, and anticipated what you would do next.
"One of the reasons why I previously mentioned the X/Y comment, and relationship, is that I knew it would come down to you having a severe meltdown over how I conduct my side of the argument in response to you. Lustylad even jumped on here and tried to warn you what would happen. You didn't listen to him, and you didn't listen to the hints that I dropped earlier in the thread." -- herfacechair
I said, what I said earlier in this thread regarding what I'll do, knowing full well that you were going to pull the stunts here that you actually pulled. Others have tried those stunts, thinking the same that you were thinking. They ultimately did what they should've done earlier in those respective threads, like what you should've done earlier in this thread.
Again, just think about this. Had you NOT made your first post against me, on this thread, this specific argument wouldn't be taking place. You should've listened to lustylad and simply moved on from this thread instead of volunteering to be my debate "punching bag".
But, the fact that you'd say that speaks volumes that your narcissism is having a harder time rejecting the message that you're realizing is reality with each passing day... That none of your antics are going to stop me from hammering you. This is further proof that you see, your continued participation in an argument you've lost, as a "form of victory", what I describe as giving you a false sense of victory. Again, you proved that I was accurate regarding the psychological profile that I've slotted you into.
Scat Boy: Sorry this is a bit long winded I guess he is rubbing off on me. LOL!
Take it away MT Pockets:
"If you were as witty as you claim you would not have to LOL." -- MT Pockets
But no, you're not being "long winded" because "my style" is "rubbing off" on you. You're "long winded" in the sense that you're emotional and pissed, and are responding accordingly. You're frustrated over the fact that none of your tricks, that you deployed on this thread to get me to stop hammering you, are working, and that I'm still hammering you.
The only thing that you're sorry for is for your allowing your emotions and narcissism to get the best of you and to heavily influence your actions on this thread.
