i think there should be a sub-forum in the off topic section just for debates, where anything goes, debate religions, views on different things homosexuality debate for instance, i just think that would be a good idea
May 26, 2005 at 8:19 am #122446MartinBradleyMemberThere’s nothing wrong with a good debate, but the only thing i’d be concerned about is people becoming hostile. It certainly wouldn’t do any good for the good spirit around here.
May 26, 2005 at 8:43 am #122445DJHyperbyteMemberWhat bothers me is that one of the main functions of a forum is open and free debate. Why do you want to narrow this down into one specific section of the forum, while the entire forum is already suitable for this purpose?
May 26, 2005 at 4:46 pm #122451chikenkickerMemberbecause when a debate usually starts people start complaining over certian things that are said, have you seen that ethics topic in the off topic section?

Nothing wrong with making suggestions though, it’s always appreciated!
May 27, 2005 at 12:15 am #122448RabidKittenParticipantExactly, I’m glad that you took my advice and made a suggestion, kicker, but as I said before…there will never be a forum where “Anything goes” and there will always be people getting butthurt and offended in a debate…even if it is in a ‘debate forum’. Really…I’m glad you made the suggestion and believe that much in the cause, but I don’t think that it’s do-able. We’d just end up with an entire forum that’s like the Ethics thread…and really, I don’t know if my heart can handle that. *twitch…twitch twitch*
June 15, 2005 at 9:43 am #122449QwertyMemberthats wat the off topic forum is for
if people qre going to post their opinions, they should be able to handle critizism for them. That’s life.
June 22, 2005 at 1:18 am #122450colinMemberPeople should be able to take critisism, but it has to be CONSTRUCTIVE critisism. Otherwise people would not post, for fear of getting made fun of. Debate forum is a bad idea, we already have enough hostility in some of the threads, we don’t need any more tension.
