In other words, saying "you can't believe what X says because X likes to eat babies" is an ad hominem and meritless argument -- meritless because it doesn't have anything to do with what X actually said. “Ad Hominem” is Latin for “against the man” and it means an argument that is meritless because it is “against the person” rather than engaging with their arguments.

It's been my experience (as a wordy bastard) that in Eve a lot of folks who aren't happy with the way a conversation is going for them want to "continue the conversation with blasters" and I thought that's where you were trying to go with Madness. I'd agree that you've remained fairly neutral in these comments, even made some comments that are helpful if they prove true and sincere. And that's not like Chebri. I <b>am</b> entertained that speculating on whether somebody might be associated with Chebri is considered an ad hominem attack -- that's kinda sad for her. But in a polite effort to point out why the subject keeps coming up, your last comment reads like classic Chebri in one significant fashion. She's most notorious (at Ironfleet) for making nasty denunciations of behavior that she also enjoys -- one of our first exchanges involved her <b>RUDELY</b> denouncing Ironfleet's salvage activities on the grounds that it was <b>rude</b> of us. Now here's you, making a slam at Madness (a funny slam, but still a slam accusing him of being an overzealous fan of Ironfleet) and then in the next breath, hoping we'll all refrain from ad hominem attacks. It's a Chebri pattern. Of course she doesn't own it, but you'll understand if we continue to maintain an open mind for the time being?

Far easier to debate/argue points back and forth in real time. Don't know how well it would go, considering we've already managed to degenerate to this from 'anon person is probably chebri' I'd like think I've remained neutral (though I will acknowledge that what I think and what is the case are often two different things), MADNESS seems to have found the giant foam-finger store, and gotten one made up for IRON. I'd like to think that we can all avoid any ad hom attacks (yes I looked that up, no I'm not sure if i used it right) Duel? Nah.

You'd have more credibility if you dropped the anonymous schtick, though. I do think it's pretty funny watching one anonymous person challenge another anonymous person to a spaceship duel -- how exactly would you go about setting that up? Don't have any new stuff to blog, Ducky has been a no-show so far and I haven't had any new adventures otherwise.
