It is indeed flat, and it is on the back of an elephant. Most major religions agreed that the earth is flat. There is still a flat earth society still around today, why would these still be doubt in this age of knowledge if it was true.

If he just stops posting, maybe we will come to the conclusion that he does not exist.

It wouldn't be an argument though.

Here is the relevant definition.

I do not think there is a definition that allows for no answer to actually be an argument, as it is not reasoning or fact or statement.

AG, the only possible statement a non-existant being could make is the lack of a statement. Any actual statement would necessarily mean existence. :P
