| | + | :::::Max, I respect your good faith attempts to engage User:Conservative in debate, but it should be more than obvious to you, and everyone else, that User:Conservative does not intend to enter into a formal debate with anyone on any subject. As should be obvious from his articles and correspondences, User:Conservative does not appear interested in enlightening his audience or winning support for his worldview. No, quite clearly, his end goal is to ridicule and frustrate his ideological and philosophical enemies. He achieves this by continually bragging about his undefeated debating track record, yet never provides any proof or evidence his memory on this matter is accurate and correct. He issues challenges to those he knows will never accept his offer. Yet in turn sets up prerequisites that are impossible to satisfy for those who are willing to debate him. All previous offers to debate User:Conservative have met with one of the following responses: |
| | + | :::::*Declined because the opponent is too "obscure" or not "prominent" enough. |
| | + | :::::*Declined because the opponent would not meet his arcane list of demands. |
| | + | :::::*Declined because his eventual victory is assured. |
| | + | :::::*Ignored, then treated the requester to one of his world famous non-sequitur answers.(popular) |
| | + | :::::*Ignored, no response given. |
| | + | :::::*Ignored, offending offer deleted and burned. |
| | + | |
| | + | :::::That's about it. That is all you can ever hope to get. Why? Because he's not interested in sharing, comparing, and contrasting ideas in a thoughtful manner. Nope, he just wants to ridicule and frustrate people. There's a word for that... rhymes with roll... mole? coal? Anyway, good luck. --[[User:SteveK|SteveK]] 01:04, 29 September 2011 (EDT) |
