the diff between a persuasive paper and an argumentive paper is about what the motivation to talk about it is. if you're compairing it to someone else's oppinion, then it's arg. if you're just trying to get people to do or think about something, then it's pers.

An argument is a passage that contains a conclusion, at least one reason to support that conclusion and it must represent an attempt to persuade the audience to accept the truth of the conclusion.\n\nA good argument will have a logical chain of reasoning leading to the conclusion.  The author will be consistent.  Supporting evidence will be relevant.  The author will reason his way to the conclusion rather than relying on irrelevant or emotional appeals or other fallacies.

Well, it would be much easier if you gave a reason.\n\nWithout a reason, I suggest you do not quit.\n\nSo, NO.

You said research paper, so basically an essay.  Yea, the introduction, body/bulk, conclusion is the general outline but u left something out.  After the introduction, there's the main argument (your point of view), your reasons to support it (the proof), then there's the counter-argument (anything you can think of to argue against your topic), the counter-argument's reasons/proofs, and finally your conclusion (which supports your main argument and defies the counter-argument).

Unsound arguments can be based on incorrect assumptions or on "facts" that prove to be incorrect.  An invalid argument is one that is internally flawed.  An argument can be either or both.  It is possible to build a valid argument that is utterly incorrect or to build an unsound argument that is internally valid.  Goal is for it to be both sound and valid.

The old rule used to be to never use it. And many people followed the rule, whether or not it made sense.\n\nBut with the advent of e-mail and computers more people are writing, the old rule is no longer as dictatorial, and variations are permitted.\n\nRealistically, the more formal your writing needs to be, the less you should use "but" or "and" to start a sentence. There's usually a clearer way to get your point across. I work in technical writing and shy away from it on the job as a matter of course.\n\nBut in more creative writing and/or informal writing (such as journaling or letter writing or posting things on Yahoo Answers!), I think it's perfectly acceptable to start a sentence with "but" or "and."  \n\nUsually it is used for give "flavor" to the text, to give it some life and personality. And it forces people to pause or breathe where you'd like them to, when they read your text "mentally" in their mind. You're not just relaying information, you're trying to make your reader feel certain things, and such constructions are one tool to do that. \n\nBut I suppose it's really up to you.

Writing is quicker than pointing and clicking.\nAlso a command line interface is easier to use from a script.

There are two general ways of responding to an argument you disagree with: providing your own counter argument, or trying to silence the person, shut the argument down. In my experience, people tend to resort to the latter when they lack the eloquence or ideological consistency to develop their own rational argument. It's basically a panic reaction of being unable to defend their own position, but refusing to either admit this to themselves, or engage with the alternative point of view. Personally, I think that if you have a strong and consistent argument, it would be able to "defeat" alternative points of view purely through the strategy of confrontation and argumentation.\n\nSo if I were you, I would take the removal as a compliment. It means you've asked a question they can't answer!
