So you mean users that don't have a troll on their name can't troll? Cool.
yes absolutely but in this case it is is less ignorance and more inexperience (presumably)Description of Burden of Proof
Burden of Proof is a fallacy in which the burden of proof is placed on the wrong side. Another version occurs when a lack of evidence for side A is taken to be evidence for side B in cases in which the burden of proof actually rests on side B. A common name for this is an Appeal to Ignorance. This sort of reasoning typically has the following form:
Claim X is presented by side A and the burden of proof actually rests on side B.
Side B claims that X is false because there is no proof for X.
In many situations, one side has the burden of proof resting on it. This side is obligated to provide evidence for its position. The claim of the other side, the one that does not bear the burden of proof, is assumed to be true unless proven otherwise. The difficulty in such cases is determining which side, if any, the burden of proof rests on. In many cases, settling this issue can be a matter of significant debate. In some cases the burden of proof is set by the situation. For example, in American law a person is assumed to be innocent until proven guilty (hence the burden of proof is on the prosecution). As another example, in debate the burden of proof is placed on the affirmative team. As a final example, in most cases the burden of proof rests on those who claim something exists (such as Bigfoot, psychic powers, universals, and sense data).
Examples of Burden of Proof
Bill: "I think that we should invest more money in expanding the interstate system."
Jill: "I think that would be a bad idea, considering the state of the treasury."
Bill: "How can anyone be against highway improvements?"
Bill: "I think that some people have psychic powers."
Jill: "What is your proof?"
Bill: "No one has been able to prove that people do not have psychic powers."
"You cannot prove that God does not exist, so He does."

trolman said:Somehow the closest you guys got was comparing it to eating meat but if everyone stops thered be starvation,the numbers of animals will rise off the charts and alot of people would lose their jobs.
trolman said:The proof you guys show is that its natural and blah blah blah but in my eyes that doesent count
trolman said:, I wont throw alway my morals just for some random people from the internet who arent even zoophiles

General Note said:Guys could you kindly stop insulting eachother, it's not helping
And now you're just quoting some random sayings but whatever I'm not supporting beastality.
So you mean users that don't have a troll on their name can't troll? Cool.
Random? Certainly not, I for one /think/ before I say things, Eitherway I see you've given up, since you've lost all grounds to argue on. So please, spend your life doing something else. Prehaps learn an instrument?
trolman said:I have nothing to argue about because you would fail to see my reasoning anyways.
And no I have my people to atend to, come now gorillabull back to the troll cave.
So do you support Bestality or are you against it?

trolman said:And yes private, you are free to support it but dont blame me for anything when its your turn to die.
I tried to help you
My question was still serious about the usage of "listen" in english.
"These arguments are invalid because I don't see them as valid."Because those posts aply to a world randomly created from and we randomly got here by some random events.I dont belive it happened that way so their arguments are invalid to me. I didnt state them because those are personal beliefs where there are no right and wrongs.
TheAmazingAtheist said:Well, no one who eats meat can make any argument against it. If we're going to kill animals, I don't see how to reasonably draw the line at fucking them. So, bone away, my pervy friend.
I have a mission to achive over 9000 posts or an atheist zoophile will kill my family.
Can't help you with that, english is not my native language.
