Debates

[Thunder]

What makes for a good debate? Abortion? Nuclear weapons? Hate Crimes? Maybe even slaves?

What do you think?

 

[Princess]

Oh you.

 

[Thunder]

Oh you.

I totally predicted that you would say that. But in chat speak.

 

[The Sign Painter]

Whatever, bro. It all depends on the situation.

Something that you can back up with facts and semi personal opinions.

Okay I wasn't giving examples.

 

[Princess]

Might I add again, the only reasons I made those threads was due to the fact, we really haven't had a discussion thread in awhile. It's just mostly forum games, and other random threads. :r

y u so gifted?

also, on-topic to the debate threads, i dislike how they're half-turning into mudslinging.

i'm going to take a break for the night until it settles down enough to have long, cohesive posts instead of one-liners (i'm looking at jeremy)

Co-champion with me, cough cough.

The best debates revolve around ethical questions, like abortion. Monetary debates, like, "Should the corporate tax rate be 25% or 30%?" are boring, and turn into a war of statistics.
