I don't trust your anecdote; I think you just made it up, since you have not presented any proof. I think you are trying to prove a point by making up stories.

I don't trust your anecdote; I think you just made it up, since you have not presented any proof.
I think you are trying to prove a point by making up stories.
Therefore I distrust your conclusions and arguments, not only because I disagree with them, but because I distrust you.
(I'm testing out turning off my trust-by-default gene ;)
- ryandrake 8y agoGood meta point! When you think about it, there is no really good reason to believe anything posted to a forum such as this, from anonymous people you don’t know. Yet we often do. Touché!
- perl4ever 8y agoDo we "often" believe things stated by anonymous people with no evidence? I'd suggest that I neither believe nor disbelieve things that are unconfirmed. Instead, I consider that an anonymous person said such things and later correlate it with other observations. It's not necessary to prematurely declare something (even to yourself) to be true or false.
