You don't take the post as whole, but you just pick the one thing that must not be totaly right in your point of view and imply that the rest of the post is wrong. Nothing can be further from the truth. Sometimes, not everything is black and white. Shades of grey are there. One part of one of the equation/post might be wrong yet the rest perfectly valid. Sometimes a post might be totaly wrong and yet, from the point of view of the poster, it can be totaly right for the poster. 2) Even with a conceded point you keep bringing it up. That can be creepy and unsettling for some people at times. Showing a mistake is great for the both of you. Hammering it is not...3) You don't even want to put yourself in the shoes of the person you are "discussing" with. Sometimes adopting the other's point of view can help you relate to what he is saying or debating thus helping both to reach a common understanding. It is often the best way to relate to each others in good hearted nature. Being wrong does not mean inept, bad or stupid.I am sure you are a very good person. It's just that sometimes, you don't seem to know when to stop. Sometimes, the best way to convince someone is letting the dust settle down a bit...</blockquote>
