Hello to all members and debaters!

Some of you may remember the, "Great Debate," a few months back. I am deciding to resurrect its epicness, and create a whole new debating network. Here's it will all go.

Debates may be set up on this thread. You may call out a specific topic, and ask for anyone to challenge you, or you may call out a specific member to debate with.

These debates will be set up on profiles created by myself. The member who challenged a member, or the member who set up the topic, will start each debate off with their stance and back up. For backup used in the debate, a link is mandatory for your opponent.

Each member will post back in forth debating on your stance on the subject at hand. DragonMistress, Moegreche, I, or any other moderator that states they want to help judge will come by each debate profile to give update scores, and maybe a hint or two. The moderator judge will end the debate as he/she sees fit. The prize for a debate is a merit!

All rules for the site apply. No spamming, plagerising, foul language, (eventhough debates can get pretty intense) etc.

Now, all of you, go out and debate!

I think Communism is the best government cause I am Communist and capitalism sucks and only helps that fat rich pigs!


Well if you can't seem to find a job i can recommend some good homeless shelters.

>.>

Don't be talking trash about capitalists, it's peeps own fault that there broke.

But i'm sorry, i'm forgetting that this is not the place to debate, silly me. I get so riled up sometimes i can't help myself >.>

And if Agent86 does not want to take that challenge, i will gladly do it.

Not really, once you've accumulated a certain amount you need no more. And after that your very likely just to start hoarding large sums that amount to nothing but personal monetary gain, ie. top 1% richer than bottom 99% of America.. No need for that, just economic collapses..

I don't know that communism is the best alternative but all economic basis have some perfectionist ideal..

I've already taken up Drace on the Capitalism vs. Communism debate. We have yet to get a score though which is kind of annoying.

I know you see[/i]m busy right now Estel, so no rush on this for anyone, especially since I am currently already in a debate. But when I am done, I have another subject that I would love to debate on.

-Global Warming [i](I would like to debate for that it exists, and is in effect)

This should be stickied, it was already pushed back to the second page.

Another Topic I want to debate on:

Nuclear Warfare Technology:

It should be abolished. I'm against it.

Ooopsies sorry for the double post but i have to clarify something (yet another reason for the comment edit like Myspace has).

When i say i'm against it, i mean i'm against it being abolished. I'm for Nuclear warfare Technology, and against it being banned world wide.

um just a question before i decide if i want to debate anyone, is there a time limit on the responses, such as i post my argument, and the opponent has 24 hours to respond? or no?

Yes:
- Please post in a timely fashion. If no response has been made within 48 hours, then the adjudicator can declare a winner. If youâre not going to be able to respond for longer than 48 hours, just let everyone know by posting on this profile.


Although I'm not sure if they enforce it...

Does this topic get checked once in a while? I'm getting a bit impatient. Only few debates have been opened.

I agree with you. The metric system is much easier to follow.
