That sounds rather silly, right? Well, that guy is you.

If you take offense to something Franck says or does, you can confront him a mature way, or just ignore him. Either way, you won't make a complete ass out of yourself.

Saying you want to meet him to beat him up, however, has no positive effects whatsoever. It does make you look like an ass, and solves nothing at all. Even if you are a much better fighter than he is, who cares? It has no relevance whatsoever. None.

By challenging Franck to a duel of sorts, you aren't exposing him - you're exposing yourself. Even if you were to prove beyond a doubt that you could kick his ass, nobody would care about that. This isn't high school. Physical strength is utterly unimportant.

If you want to "out" Franck, make an elaborate thread pointing out what isn't true about the things he's saying. Don't try and be a keyboard warrior, nobody's impressed by that.
