The new Viper changes are great

It's not evidence. Ur claiming authority on the subject based on your parse. We can't argue back to you because you claim authority on the area. If you werent the authority then that means we don't have to listen to you based on your parse BECAUSE your not an authority. So you ARE claiming authority.

your parse is not reflective of the arguments or conversations thats happening here. You're using parse to say that my opinion on the changes being good is invalid because of my lack of having a leveled character and calling me a rage baiter. When proven wrong, you switched to parse and using that to make you an authority on the argument. You "evidence" is completely irrelevant because it doesnt do anything to disprove what I said. In fact, you have been wrong on several counts on this thread.

Argue with words and logic rather than relying on a parse to dismiss any topic just because you don't like other peoples opinions.

But I'm not an "authority" figure, in this case. I'm proving I'm a credible expert. I'm NOT saying "I made Viper so listen to me," I'm proving that I'm knowledgeable on a subject I intend to discuss. By your incorrect interpretation of the fallacy, you're saying that the professional opinions of scientists and doctors mean less than a layman who's talking about the same thing, because doctors and scientists aren't allowed to use their expertise to argue, otherwise "meh, it doesn't mean anything 'cus they're an authority figure!"

I am not using the opinion of an authority figure (notably, an external one) as my only argument. I'm using the opinion of myself, which I prove as credible via my own expertise and have numerical data supporting that expertise. Your interpretation of the fallacy is still wrong. And it was still wrong after you went to Wikipedia and proved yourself wrong?... That's impressive.
