Have you ever succeeded in a debate on SW by using insults and CAPITAL LETTERS?

This seems to be a technique that some people use. 馃槀

Every time. By careful definition of what I mean by 'success' :p

I think I know to who you are referring. ;)

Let's just say some people are very easily triggered ..... and especially so when they have no worthwhile arguments of their own.

If that fails try posting the same meme ten or so times

A technique that people turn to for a last-minute Hail Mary of desperation when they have nothing left to use?

I think when people use them they think they are being serious and adding emphasis. It just makes people look ANGRY AND NUTS! 馃槣

I have never tried it
I don't use caps now that I can use [i]italics[/i] or [b]bold[/b] print. 馃槆

To be fair Bijoux when you did use caps it was APPROPRIATE USE OF CAPS AND NOT OVER THE TOP! 馃槣

Well if it's an "F" marked account, about a dozen guys will immediately reply to tell how wonderful and right they are, and half a dozen "F" marked accounts will post just to add that men are pigs.

I succeed with facts, empathy, civility and some humor. Undefeated.
Burnley12341-45, M
You were doing so well until then end there. ;-)

@Burnley123: I defy you to provide a link to the contrary sir. I see the above as yet another BA.
