After a phone call with a telemarketer, I had a sudden realization: That there is really no progress in debate RP. She kept trying to get me to listen to rates about a new company, and I was perfectly fine with my current company. She kept pestering me as if someone had a gun to her baby's head and threatened to pull the trigger. I finally got fed up and said, "Please. I don't want to change. This is when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object." Then I hung up. This is the process for anything.

Say a Xenos meets an LN. Our Xenos is named Tom and our LN is named Tim. Tim and Tom are arguing about why they are correct about their view. They both have pressing arguments and rather well thought-out points. It all works. They decide that there is no point in arguing because no one will change. They decide to shoot. Who ever survives was obviously correct because they survived. Right? Tom lives, so now he can continue to harass the people of Liberty and kill more foreigners. Cool beans.

This is how it works. There is no change. Or so I think. What if Tim or Tom actually listened to the other compatriot? Can Tim go Xenos and turn on his allies? Can Tom start going all lawful on the Xenos in that second? Just say, "Know what? You're right. Engaging former ally." It seems like I should be able to. But people can be pissy. That upsets me. They find some way to screw the character over so I can't play it anymore or even just 'lawlno' it in the first place.
