I tend not to have long, heated discussions. Constant, extended tactical engagement is an imprudent waste of resources in my view. I wait for my moment, get in, do my damage and get out. Lingering is simply giving your adversary unnecessary opportunities and weakening your overall effectiveness. If I can't achieve my objective in a handful of posts, it's either likely not worth trying, or there is a defect in my argument, approach, or assessment of the situation. If opportunities exist, exploit them; if no opportunities exist, provoke them; if opportunities can't be provoked, gather intelligence; if intelligence gathering is fruitless, plan; if planning bears no fruit, sleep. (There are exceptions to these principles, but i don't want to bore you with a bunch of dry talk of strategy.)
