Debates rarely convince the other person. Pride usually prevents this to the point where even if they change their minds they won't acknowlege it, at least not right away. It's really more about destroying their argument in the eyes of the veiwer.

To be fair I've never really been beaten, then again I've never really sought to fight here, on the bright side I know how to destroy the world thanks to this thread.

By the "eyes of the viewer," you mean a third party?
So one of the purposes of a debate, and definition of victory in a debate, is not to convince those with a strong belief, but to sway the fence sitters who watch it?

Joey: So, what happens when you're wrong?
Nick: Well, Joey, I'm never wrong.
Joey: But you can't always be right.
Nick: Well, if it's your job to be right, then you're never wrong.
Joey: But what if you are wrong?
Nick: Okay, let's say that you're defending chocolate and I'm defending vanilla. Now, if I were to say to you, "Vanilla's the best flavor ice cream", you'd say …?
Joey: "No, chocolate is."
Nick: Exactly. But you can't win that argument. So, I'll ask you: So you think chocolate is the end-all and be-all of ice cream, do you?
Joey: It's the best ice cream; I wouldn't order any other.
Nick: Oh. So it's all chocolate for you, is it?
Joey: Yes, chocolate is all I need.
Nick: Well, I need more than chocolate. And for that matter, I need more than vanilla. I believe that we need freedom and choice when it comes to our ice cream, and that, Joey Naylor, that is the definition of liberty.
Joey: But that's not what we're talking about.
Nick: Ah, but that's what I'm talking about.
Joey: But … you didn't prove that vanilla's the best.
Nick: I didn't have to. I proved that you're wrong, and if you're wrong, I'm right.
Joey: But you still didn't convince me.
Nick: Because I'm not after you. I'm after them.

That's fucking hilarious. I've never seen that movie, but I remember wanting to. I'll never finish putting away my laundry at this rate.
It's also a little scary. I need to do some reading. Maybe then I'll be able to filter the bullshit.
So what happened to creative argument?

Eh, I've just been busy. I'll be back to hand you your ass when the shit-storm of offscreen life dies down. Right now, I still have a couple of colons left to stomp before my time is my own again.
See, I said offscreen 'cause it make me feel like I'm in a movie. Evidently my role here will be that of dark avenger, an identity which will be activated when your hubris officially requires its own zip code.
I go where I am needed.
EDIT: By the way, standstill? Bitch, I totally ruined your shit.

Despanan,
I live in the Junction. I can spell Naps with your name.
Well it's been a long time, but considering I had Gothic Net beat to a pulp, I'm sure I could use some Karate Moves!!!!
I win. I just pictured you cackling on a broomstick?
Oh no, I'm melting. I bet you won't even respond, damn. HI YA! FuCk Yea!
