That's why you can't make things available like as a example there is a wizard job and be like wizard in a wizard round rip you

Why do you never have punctuation?
By unofficial you mean knockoff servers using Baycode. And that's literally entirely irrelevant. What you're saying is that Lizardpeople are going to lead to Vox races and Vox gamemode and that's gonna get non-antag Vox killed and then making a comparison to a station wizard job (wut) and thusly we should not have lizardpeople because this could end up like when antags are the same species as nonantags? There's literally no logical chain of progression in Lizardpeople = a wizard station job that gets lynched every wizard round.

Vox are bird people on vg. They role play their species well though and it's probably the only rp on that server. They talk in character. Respond to certain music and techno gods. And enjoy shiny things. They are also creepy and gross.

Not to mention that the fallacy fallacy means you disregard someone's entire argument because of a single fallacy, while in this case your entire argument was a single fallacy.

Alas His argument in that post is that ricotez had a fallacy in his argument consisted of, that link and "^^^This", I was forced to remind him that calling out a fallacy as a argument is in fact a fallacy in it's self. I also like being clever and am in favor of the addition of the lizardmen

No, calling out one point among many of an argument as a fallacy and thus dismissing the entire argument is the fallacy fallacy. His entire argument was three sentences: 1: Slippery slope fallacy. 2: Opinion. 3: Detail on the previous opinion.

So it wasn't the fallacy fallacy - rather you were leaping to a conclusion with an intent to provide clever input. And I also don't mind lizardpeople.

How about we stop getting in a pissing contest and get back to talking about the lizards? And also let's all agree that slippery slope is a poor way to make a case. If your best argument against something is a potential future outcome, that implies you have no real reasoning at all that applies to the here and now.
