 Just last week, on another thread, several other posters chewed you out for doing this, after they figured it out, which took a while.

In sum, stop pretending you don't understand the "resentful" poster's point:  she resents YOUR DEBATING STYLE.  It's not only sleazy.  It's so transparently sleazy (most of us are pretty smart ourselves, you know) that everybody gets super frustrated.[/quote]

This is exactly why I think it's a waste of effort to try to point out to this poster what the problem is.  She's been told -- repeatedy.  She has no interest in changing what she's doing.  Basically, it's probably the best she can do.

So in the end, the best policy is to trust the intelligence of other readers, say what you have to say/enjoy whatever substantive discussion ensues, and ignore the noise and posturing.  Anonymity obviously makes it harder to know whom you're ignoring when you ignore a dogmatic and belligerent post.  But if a poster is sincere in wanting to engage, she can always find another way of doing so.  (e.g. ask again in a less dismissive or inflammatory manner).  [/quote]
