Making the Debate Forum Exclusive, What do you think? Options

[NoSex]

As I have spent a significant amount of time participating within these debate forums, I have come to a conviction that these boards would benifit greatly if this page were to become exclusive. Exclusive in the sense that direct permission would have to be given to allow one to participate, as in post, in these forums. Once permission has been granted that individual would have the right to normal posting within this forum.

I suggest this because I believe the quality of these debate forums is suffering and that such an action would greatly increase said quality. Memebers far too oftenly post arguments to never return to the debate threads. Many members do not respect the rules of debate, or make a mockery of such. Some members do not seem capable to be included in a reasonable and intellectual debate. A majority of the arguments posted are repeated arguments which have been served pages worth of rebuttles, yet continue to be posted. This all disrupts the point, and the enjoyement driven from these threads. Because of these reasons, and more, I wish that we could create a more close-knit, intellectual, and interested party for the debate section of Createblog.

(I wanted to have the debate in here, as it was a debate, and I don't think I have any kind of serious influence on policy making here. I just want to see what everyone else thinks. After some deliberation here, maybe some of us could bring this idea, or another, to the attention of those who do make policy here.)

Discuss?

There should be an IQ test.
If you fail, you're banned from the Debate forum for a year or a couple months. Because if you fail, it shows how you have a lack of intelligence, and how you would post a completly idiotic statemen, a dumb arguement, or your stupid statement would only hinder the debate, has nothing to do with the debate itself, or would just show your stupidity.

Example, a debate about a certain genre of music.
This is the person who fails the test.
"I hate rap because it only talks about blah blah blah, (Insert stupid comment here.)" This is basically whats in that forum. Notice how the poster, completely ignores truth, and only focuses on the stereotypes that they believe is truth, in that retarted brain/ or brain look a like of theirs.

Then, after they take and fail the test, they can then take another one after the ban has been lifted, and see if their pass. Etc.
