posting a fucking macro every time someone disagrees with you and won't back down =/= reasoned argument on any world but Planet Troll
Well, that's the point, isn't it? It's never a reasoned argument, just a decree, an insult, or a macro. Sometimes all of the above. Absolutely anything but engaging in debate out in open waters; any "discussion" must take place under controlled conditions under her command.
I'm kind of assuming that it's a compulsive need to be the center of attention, based on the way that threads keep getting hijacked to pick nits or warn off trolling instead of continuing to discuss the issues at hand. Except that in a fandom this big and roiling, it's impossible for any one person (or faction) to completely hijack anything.
