I know that most of us had already presumed halogamer's modus operandi, but at this point I'm willing to submit an actual hypothesis based on experimental evidence in the thread so far:

Halogamer1989 will
1. Make wild allegations
2. Defend them
3. In the face of strong contrary arguments/evidence,
3.1. Only respond to one or two points, usually tangents he's brought in which distract form the main argument, often avoiding specific questions of fact (which are easier to prove wrong); and/or
3.2. Make the "appeal to authority" fallacy; or
3.3. Change the subject (can be considered the extreme form of (3.1))
4. Disappear for a little while (for the heat to die down); and/or
4.1. Claim he never intended to get drawn into an argument and just wants to peacefully spread the good word (so can we all please stop talking about contrary evidence)
5. See (1)

 

 

I'm pretty sure you're just developing my earlier list, that he reported me for... Your list is way better, it's more accurate and it has sub-steps.
