The best way to make yourself look like a dumbass is to think that Latin is fancy and doesn't actually have meanings that would require an entire sentence to say in English. There's nothing fancy about Latin.

Really, go buy yourself a romance novel and see how the rest of the world looks at it.

The funny thing is a "credibility rating" is perhaps the most absolute and perfect example of an ad hominem possible. Perfect way to continue showing how shitty the EiRR community is at debate. Sad thing is I thought you were one of the few here who were above ad hominem, though.

I have no idea what the fuck you're trying to say, Spartan. I really don't get why you care about the usage of a phrase in another language so much, though. I don't know how it is in other languages, but here in English we borrow words and phrases from other languages to describe objects and concepts ALL THE FUCKING TIME.

Anyone else see the irony in this?

More misuse of the term "ad hominem"

 The very fact that your argument with Demon is about who has a better understanding of the community (and who is more qualified to say whether or not Demon has played with all the people on the list), makes the issue of your credibility completely valid - especially when you have explicitly said to me in confidence that you "care nothing about" this community. You have barely been around this forum for a fraction as long as Demon, or most any one else, and have quickly established yourself both as a mediocre player, and an impetuous and unprepared opportunistic arguer of anything and everything regardless of the strength or necessity of your argument. Thus, when it comes to you trying to assert yourself, unwisely, as an authority about wheter or not Demon is qualified to examine the community skill-wise... you are completely credit-less.

 Here is something you need to know fast, before you abuse the term "ad hominem" any more (because it really is painful): Ad hominem is not always fallacious. So the next time you get all excited about bastardizing latin concepts, do us all a favour and conduct the bare minimum research to figure out what they actually mean.

@Everyone else: I mean honestly guys, it's like we have 3-4 17 year old kids who just joined their high school debate club and over heard some shiney debate terms on the first day, without bothering to understand their delicate nuances, and as a result just run around running their mouths off shouting "latin fallacy!" at any chance they get. So frustrating.

Seriously. Rename "Extreme" with "The most evil stacking stomping no-lifing pricks on earth" and be done wth it. We won't mind.
