Respect for the individual
(I'm going to start calling him "Jar Jar" like the simpleton in Star Wars because if he can't understand why the guys carved inappropriate petroglyphs onto the rocks, he's really not so bright) --
And the first time you do call him that, or the next time you make such remarks you will not be posting for 24 hours.

Answering questions
It is up to you and Jar to sort out why he doesn't think the questions are answered.
You might both have to be very detailed and specific to clear things up.

Re: Answering questions
You do seem to have an unfortunate tendancy to change the subject when pressed.
Perhaps you actually haven't answered the questions.
The way to handle this situation is to ask Jar just what question he thinks you haven't answered. To ask him to explain what answers (if any at all) he thinks you may have attempted to give and to ask him specifically why he thinks the answers are not adequate.
Then you may respond when you understand just where he misunderstands.
Jar has been here a long while. He has demonstrated an ability to carry on an intellectual discussion in a reasonable manner with many different individuals.
On the other hand it is not clear that you have yet demonstrated such an ability.
If you continue to ignore the guidelines you agreed to you will be given a first, short suspension. (I'll check back in a hour or two).

Name calling like children?
Jar, you are such a pathetic coward!
Another warning for you Jim. Next suspension will be two days.
Thanks for showing some maturity.

Behave!
Jar, I don't think that the personal remarks were needed!
In fact the post is so obviously silly that I don't think any comment at all was needed to point that out to anyone. (note my comment is on the post)
I will suspend you at the next breach anything even close to this.
