| If you are the only person left beating the horse after it has died, beat the horse even harder to make up for it. |
There comes a point in every debate on Wikipedia where the debate itself has come to a natural end. You may have won the debate, you may have lost the debate, or you may have found yourself in an honourable draw. At this point you should beat the shit out of the dead horse.
Debates are never over. Ever. Your opposition might say that they're done debating, but that's just a front to get you to puss out. Don't be a fool and fall for it. There are many ways to debate on while showing those little dicks that you're not scared to get your hands dirty. You can reopen a closed discussion. You can start a new discussion. Hell, you can even bitch to ArbCom that that admin that keeps closing your discussions is misusing his powers. Whatever you do, don't let up or show any signs of weakness.
So, the next time you find yourself with the body of a horse: please beat the hell out of it. In its past lives, it could have tortured one of your family members.
