This argument still going on? I think I proposed a good solution personally :P

None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

Why won't you answer Rochey's points? If you have a valid argument, then express it; if not, then say so - nobody will think less of you for agreeing to the dictates of logic.

They'd think less of me for losing yet again. Sometimes the only way to win is to deny them battle.

Take my word for it - you build a lesser implication of yourself by making a point and then ignoring the counters than by acceding to logic.

Nobody here thinks less of you for being wrong.

We think less of you when you're being an evasive, arrogant, idiot.

We don't think less of you for losing. I've lost debates before, as has everyone on this site. No one cares.
What we do think less of you for, however, is your refusal to debate in an honest manner.

If you can make a reply to my points, then do so. If you can't, then just admit so.

Take me for an example, then. I certainly have, and I'd rather look like an adult who was wrong and accepted it than a juvenile who is in the process of losing a game and says, "I'm taking my ball and going home!"

Indeed it does. Conceeded.
Just today Stitch proved the sapience of those Voyager aliens the three of us were debating over, showing me to be wrong. I immediately admitted that I was wrong and he was right.

You can't even let me be right about you never being wrong! You're very frustrating... :bangwall:

What can I say? Even when I'm wrong I find a way to be right. :P

This is why i dont get into arguments often. In my opinion, there should be no sarcasm, no personal comments, none of it.
Will it? Have they been sitting on their thumbs for 20 years? Not even upgrading what they DO have?

From what Teaos has said, this is a splinter group no the true dominion using the technology of which we know of.

Do we have any knowledge of the enemy's fleet? I'm assuming their designs have diverged from mainstream Dominion standards due to the passage of time since DS9 era, and also because of their separation from the Dominion proper.

Hey, this sounds like it could be a really good story!
