From a site or book in support of my argument.
This community, and the lurkers out there that frequent this site (which, btw, is a major part of the constituency to be reached) adopted certain presentation conventions that aid understanding, facilitating the communication process with fewer errors and misunderstandings.
You know this, you have been told this, but instead of trying to communicate your points in a manner most conducive to reaching
this community you insist on being an asshole.
Your presentation outside the expected protocols is distracting and detracts from the message you are trying to relay and you look like an asshole.
You want to be taken seriously? You want to have an influence? Stop being an asshole. Get with the presentation norms of this forum. If you really don't care about how you come across, if you really don't care about having your presentation be effective in communicating your points on this forum then just continue being an asshole.
It's up to you, Asshole.
