- If you are in an argument with another player and feel like you might be
- losing, these tactics will get you right back on track:
- 1. If possible, insult the player's spelling or grammar. This is a time-
- tested method for hiding the fact that you have nothing of value to add
- to a conversation.
- 2. If the player is senior to you in some way call them a nazi and tell the
- rest of the MUD they are oppressing you. This is particularly effective
- when arguing with an imm or a clan leader. Everyone you tell will
- believe you no matter what the facts are; you can't lose!
- 3. If the player created after you, even if it was 11 years ago, call them
- a noob and dismiss their arguments. When they reach your level of
- experience then they will have an opinion at least worthy of you
- bothering to tell them why it is wrong.
- 4. If that isn't working, start to insult their mom, but do it in a veiled,
- sarcastic way that doesn't quite break the personal attacks rule. Be
- careful with this one; you might need to be British to really pull it
- off.
- 5. If all else fails, just keep repeating the same argument or using the
- 'nou' social on them.
- No matter what you do, don't ever ever EVER admit that new information
- presented during the discussion has made you realize that you were
- mistaken. This is an unforgivable sign of weakness and breaks all known
- forms of internet etiquette.
