I merely have issues with being degraded as a subhuman whenever I dared not to agree with whoever I think spams what I percieved as useless trivia, to whom not giving an answer is not an option. That'd just lead to him sending me PMs about it, then if I did anything but agree or nothing at all, what could have been a violently toned, but at least decipherable argument degrade into (possibly site-wide) flamewars about privacy, politeness or whatever he can think of at the moment, as well as an outrage bringing multiple people to each side of the debate, and eventually drawing the attention of said mods who would at that point would probably kick anyone out or delete the topic to make the disaster stop(I  say probably because they could be more competent than that, but I haven't seen a mod raid on this site as of yet for precedent). Instead, I take the other option and try to keep whatever debate I held in the public section of the site for everyone to see, so not a lot of outsiders actually care. It's more productive this way, really. And since he doesn't violate any rules - indeed, he is not being objectionable nor disruptive - I can't and won't report him to the mods.Of course there is something we can gain from the conversation. There is the possibility that you are right, and I am wrong. You seem to have a right head on your shoulder, and the other users had to give you all that XP for a reason. You have blog called Intelligence Check, for crying out loud, and it fits. Of course you can be right. I'm trying to squeeze a valid answer out of you. You are the one who sidesteps the issue with silly trick answers like the quote above which I presume are supposed to send me off-rails. So I answer in return to you being annoying by being equally annoying by necessity but logically sound, which you can end by being logically sound. Or, if you are wrong, you will get convinced by me, eventually. And lastly, if you are doing this just for the debate's sake in a true troll's fashion, you'll make a mistake sooner or later and post something so glaringly idiotic on which no one will fault me for walking out. And now that I satisfied the inquiry(at least I hope so), can we please skip this tedious Truth or Dare sequence and find a satificatory answer for mine? Because despite the sarcasm you may imagine there is in this sentence, I'm actually interested.</blockquote>
