It's actually fairly easy: just don't rely on fallacies to carry your (lack of) argument.
.

So would you put up a poll that includes the opinions of people who dont run their accounts with PLEX but use them in other ways?

Seems to me that our opinion on the price of PLEX and how it applies to subscription numbers should also count.

if mine doesn't count yours does not either. So I guess no one wins this argument.

He can't back it up because he is just pulling terminology's off Google and without fully understanding how to apply them, while make attempts at using them. Now given his general audience EVE players he could have very well just replied solely with " EVE is good" "internet space ships pew pew" and "CCP, ISD , CSM" and everyone would cheer in an uproar.

It is kind of like when someone will use controversial terms to reach their target audience. I will give Tippia credit for knowing his audience well enough to use this tactic. How ever even though most of you agree with him here it does not make him right.
seeing as we only have about 200 replies to these post and maybe 100 unique posters the sample size is to small and he has proven nothing.

You guys agreeing with him here out of the 500,000 EVE accounts while i am sure boost his ego, it means absolutely zero. As you guys make up to small of a sample size to make a difference.

And I think it's funny he still uses straw man out of context and when I have shown him why he uses it out of context he calls that a straw man. but the above quote even though you tend to agree with tippia is a pretty accurate demonstration as to how he conducts a debate.

It is a tactic that will continue to work as long as he stays around his target audience. That of course being you guys who love and support eve and ccp. out side of these forums he would have been laughed at and booed off stage.
Either way he is still wrong and 100 people agreeing with him does not make him right.

But it was a good laugh at anyrate.

Nope just pick the right target audience and fill your argument with nothing but the improper use of common debate terminologies instead and accuse the person you are arguing with of using them.

But I feel that many discussions go beyond a + b, that everything is not black and white, we can't know everything. According to Tippia this is not the case. (another strawman, just my opinion though)

No, that is actually exactly what I'm saying (just as I did in the bot/nerf-local thread). Or, more specifically, that we can't know anything based on the poll polly has provided.

Tippia argues with the personality of "David" from Prometheus, condescending, cold, and without regard. Quite possibly, the eve forums could have done this to him, couldn't imagine why, it's a lovely place. It's because of this attitude that you WANT him to be wrong. Chances are, splitting hairs, a+b, he's right. Tippia would call what I just said a Strawman. I hope that through all of this he finally gets a brain.

However in this discussion you are in the Tippia element, because numbers don't lie, and he's damn good at looking at the numbers.

I wouldn't take it so personally.

Hmm... not entierly true.

We know polly wasn't paying attention during Statistics class. Probably too busy grinding ISK for her accounts.

Tippia's way of arguing reminds of of the old school yard tactics of .
"I know you are but what am I"
and
"I'm rubber and your glue what ever you say bounces off from me and sticks to you"

It is freaking hysterical.
Keep it up ole buddy. It have been a wonderful laugh the past few days watching your simple mind at work has brought me amusement.

And let me save you some time Tippia so you do not have to respond.
