Argue if you have a argument
If you commit fallacious arguments you will be called out.
This is a discussion board full of people who have spent years sharpening they're debating skills. If you have your ass handed to you; all you can do is go back and find out how to make better more convincing arguments. Logical fallacies do nothing to bolster your position in a room of people who can recognize one the moment it is uttered. Very little if anything flies past EVC board members, they eat logical fallacies for breakfast.
