    This person Is next level weird he's admitted he likes to make people "run away in debates" so basically what he does he likes to do is disagree with any little trivia thing to drag out a conversation as long as possible. And then when someone stops replying he considers that a "win" and brags about it he did the same to @Pugguy.

    So all of it is just a game of winning a debate and then just to flex about it nothing to do with having a normal conversation. Hence that's why there's a pattern that he never gets anywhere in a conversation as evident in this thread aswell.

    When I put his themaster account on ignore he made a 2nd account to debate with me recently and was liking his own posts on themaster and got banned for it as I said next level weird.

    My advice to @George Crowcroft @Ioakeim Tzortzakis don't give this numpty the time of day.

    I have come in as a neutral here so I haven't really seen it as a perspective of winner and loser. Should I? Maybe but I try not to approach these discussions like that unless it's gets pretty uncivil.

    So he calls not giving him the time of day "running away" ?

    All the more reason as to why we have the responsibility of constantly being on his ass.

    No, I don't think you should perceive this thread and the debates within, in terms of winners and losers.

    The topic of the thread title can be reasonably debated either way. It's a good topic for a thread. It's the sharing of knowledge, insights and perspectives that makes the discussion worthwhile, not some forlorn objective to definitively demonstrate the "correct" answer, that all then have no option but to agree with.

    It's the conduct of a poster in the side debates, on subjects where it is so abundantly clear that they lack anything beginning to approach the knowledge of those they're debating with, that has led to the combative nature of the discussion, that you allude to. In that sense, given I strongly suspect that poster is both an alt and a troll, I suppose my answer to your question is, by the very fact they've triggered multiple fine posters into debating them in good faith, they've achieved the primary objective of the troll, and so it could be argued from that perspective that they have "won".

    People have been on his ass since May 18 2022 but he's too thick and obnoxious to get a clue. Definitely matches Mendoza in that regard.

    Fraizer, Vitlay et al, those were the days :lol:

    I just searched "fraizer" via Mendoza and got 8, count them, 8!!!!! pages of hits. "Vitlay, who has permanent teeth marks in his testicles were Doza hung off them, returned 4 pages. All that revering yet can't spell his damn name hahahaha

    I agree they've achieved the trolling objective, but sometimes we, including your fine self, just feel the need to waste some time and expose someone for that they are. Newer posters get a crash course on who is who and sometimes (tho not too often) it's just good practice and possibly even satisfying :lol:

    Yes, all very true JT, and if everyone contributing to this thread, authentic posters and trolls alike, are getting something positive from it, then - c'est la vie.

    Admittedly I tend to get on well with themaster458 as a poster so I haven't had the same experiences that people here allude to I can only mostly go my own experiences.

    Glad you take a similar approach to me on these debates though. I imagined you would because based on what I have seen of your posts you seem to.

    If thedumpster truly is an alt, I don't think he's Mendoza. I've got a more recent poster in mind who wanted to be different in the classic forum with some threads of his. I think that Rough and I suspect the same guy. Similar writing style and both have a certain fighter they seem to be similarly obsessed with.

    Completely right for you to take posters as you find them and make your own mind up, mate.

    I'm happy to debate in good faith with anyone, politely or robustly, I'm usually led by the other poster and respond in kind in that regard.

    However, as soon as I detect trolling (and I've been caught hook, line and sinker by a couple on this forum), I lose the enthusiasm for the "debate" and more often than not, aside from occasionally making a few half-assed and/or sarcastic comments, I leave them to have at it with others.

    It's not Mendoza but i know for a fact he's already had an ALT account called "Eastern Boxer"

    If you look at this thread = https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/chris-byrd-vs-vitali-klitschko-ii-plans.733405/page-3

    You'll see "themaster" alt account "Eastern Boxer" same exact posting style and liking his own posts. I knew after a couple of posts it was him so i baited him into revealing himself which he did and then he got banned on "Eastern Boxer" and his "themaster" account the very same day which made him look very silly.

    I have no idea who he is originally but he fan boys over Usyk like crazy and pretty much any eastern european boxers in general. Not that i'm saying there's anything wrong in that you can like who you like but it's his weird behaviour that is more of an issue.

    1. Following me around in threads on an ALT to try and win debate vs me because i put his "themaster" account on ignore and then even after he got banned still follows me around very weird.

    2. Admitting he likes to win debates and bragging about making posters run away.

    Here's some quotes so you can get a gist of it.

    Again following me around in threads when i'm not even talking to him and look at the last sentence which proves my point about bragging about apparently in his mind destroying someone in a debate and making them run away ? very childish and weird.

    A guy in his mid 30s apparently typing like this.

    Thinks of himself as superior.

    So yeah pretty weird individual in general.

    Yeah he's definitely not 36, he's probably some teenage edgelord in high school or college. If he is 36, he is in desperate need of a hobby.

    Not really a war just a bunch of old heads ganging up on me flexing their knowledge then hyping each other up all the while ignoring any good points I made. Typical elitist behavior but what can you expect in these forums.........
