I spam in chat "Someone GOOD duel me", then I get spammed with BuildUHC, but then I say "no debuff", and I only got 1 duel. What's the deal with BuildUHC, why does everyone love it?And someone give me tips on BuildUHC or else I will drink bleach

So technically you're threatening yourself but projecting the fault on someone else…
Hm let's think about that.
This would be the exact same as saying: "If I fail this test I am going to kill myself but it's my brother's fault". Your brother had nothing to do with whether or not you kill yourself. You may be able to claim that if people do not give you these tips it caused you to kill yourself but I don't think the incentive is great enough.
The projection is therefore post hoc ergo propter hoc, a common logical fallacy.
TL DR: It doesn't matter if we give him tips because he will not kill himself.
PS: The more dramatic the threat, the less believable it is.

while you can technically argue that his post does contain a post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy, that is entirely irrelevant. I don't think anybody was genuinely considering his threat as a real threat; it's a tasteless, immature joke, but he's not arguing a point. To point out the fact that he's included a logical fallacy in his post makes it seem like you're debating with him whether or not he's really going to kill himself. I didn't take any logical fallacy courses or whatever, but there must be a fancy latin name for "starting unnecessary shit with big words"
