It seems the quality of arguments in SD aren't high, but that's ok, most of you are probably still young, and still have much to learn about the world (hell, even I do). For starters, I recommend reading these two links on logic. You will learn a lot, and find yourself guilty of a few of these fallacies yourself. What you used to think was logical may not actually be valid reasoning.
http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/ (I think this site is down temporaily)
http://www.infidels.org/news/atheism/logic.html (Don't let the word "atheism" scare you if you are a theist, who makes the claim has no affect on the veracity of the claim itself, but you should be skeptical of things like advertisements and political commericals where they may distort truths)
Read these, and start thinking straight! They've definatly made me a smarter person. I'm not getting paid to advertise these either, I'm just posting it to edumacate my fellow StarCraft map makers and buddies!
I will also be leaving this forum as soon as Nozomu PMs me and tells me how donate these minerals. You get half, Nozzy!
It's been nice staying here.

I'm not sure what SD was in your post, right at the beginning, but I think I'll read those soon.
You were one of my favorite posters here and at Team SE, waaah
EDIT: Thanks killer

Heh, I actually enjoyed reading your posts Drunken. They were very informative from the normal responses here at SEN. Well, good luck to you and thanks for the links.

I'm probably guilty of all of those fallacies.
I think you already figured out how to donate those mins judging from the mineral-laced PM you free-based and injected into my browser. Thanks a bunch! I'll miss you a lot, man. We need more logical sarcasm and cynicism around the forum. I'll probably catch you on AIM every once in a while, though, so it's not "Goodbye forever" just yet.
By the way, did you know that Logic and Reason are two professional-grade music synthesizing MIDI programs available for Mac OS X? I thought you were getting into music production or something.

I consider myself to be particularily logic and reasonable compared to the people around me physicaly, and many random people I meet on the net, so I think I'll read those pages, though they looked kinda long,.

I'll probably not trawl through them - my arguments are fairly sound (or at least I like to think so )
and now I don't have any serious competition in debate here (apart from maybe one or two people), which is rather irritating. Sorry to see you leaving, it was fun arguing against your views.

Very nice DW, I read it all the way through. Thanks, and good luck with your life.
