Re: DNF review on escapist
For the love of... Insult =/= ad hominem
If I say you're a dumbass and wrong that is not an ad hominem. If I say you're wrong because of some negative aspect of your character completely unrelated to the argument THAT is an ad hominem.
As far as I can tell Alexander wasn't saying that what was in the "review" was wrong because Yahtzee was a "wanabe comedian with absolutely nothing intelligent to say" but rather that he was a "wanabe comedian with absolutely nothing intelligent to say" because he saw the video and obviously disagreed with it.
