Wait! Um... But didn't this whole thing start because you claimed that NCOs sometimes (or even often) took a pay cut if they became commissioned officers? So if that will never happen, because the new pay as an officer will ALWAYS be more, then aren't we done here?
No, because that just means that I was wrong. That doesn't make him automatically right.

You aren't actually arguing that Lolgaxe is wrong because the method by which you're wrong differs from the one he originally stated? I mean, in the grand scheme of things, doesn't the fact that officer pay is always higher than NCO pay make you more wrong than his statement that if NCO pay were to be higher, he wouldn't take a pay cut, but would just freeze until his officer pay caught up? And in both cases, aren't you also still just wrong?
I know this is a new concept to Allakhazam, but I'M NOT IN ANY WAY TRYING TO DENY ANY ERROR ON MY PART. I WAS WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. However, that doesn't justify his answer being incorrect.
This isn't about a method, he argued something that simply isn't true. There is no "more wrong". It's either right or wrong. He completely made up a scenario that will never exist and then made up a solution that isn't written anywhere to a scenario that will never occur. So, if you were to compare the percentage of wrong, he's at least the same as wrong as me.
