Suggestion Debate forum into something more?

[rusty eagle]

I would like to see sub-forums. Topics could be sensibly organized. It might help members post maturely.

I agree with you on this issue though. Especially after seeing the one debating gravity (Scarred now).

Am I one of those people who have no idea?

For purely statistical and categorical knowledge.

Stay on topic, bro!

Reclaimer then Oracle. Happy?

@Rusty, are you saying you want sub-forums for specific topics such as Abortion, Creationism, etc? Or are you saying you want sub-forums for different factions of debates. Ex: Political, Religious, etc?

Since Religious debates seem popular in the debate forum I don't see why we shouldn't add in a Religion sub-forum (or even political) but I also don't think its the most important thing in the world to do atm.

I'd much rather have several threads covering broad topics, no need to make it a chore to get to the thread you want.

Religion
Politics in America
Marijuana
Abortion


etc

Then the thread gets cluttered with 7 different topics (about that "broad topic"). When you could just make a sub-forum and divide the specific topics into threads.

I'd much rather have a thread evolve in topic from participation then have six or so scattered topics with few posts generally talking about the same thing. Ideas would branch off one another in my suggestion.

Meanwhile, General Chat dies.

Debates in debate board, "Higher Thinking" in General Chat

[Fbu]

General Chat has never been any different from off topic in quality of posts, aside from the games and stickies.


A higher thinking section would require a higher moderation standard than general does, you can troll forever in there. Look at Pandemic Potential in North America, Swine Flu, The music reviewing thread. (This is a disguised game for fucks sake!), or The Saddest Thing (just another "don't look at other posts/just post your own with no real discussion" threads)
