The Debate Forum, I know, I know... Options

[fameONE]

I've seen a few posts scattered about complaining about where the debate forum is located. What if, even for just a trial period, it was its own subforum again (instead of being hidden in another subforum)?

Perhaps it would see some more activity if that was done. New topics aren't hard to come up with. As it stands, the thread about the Obama/McCain debate is becoming a debate all its own. That could be lifting productivity of the debate forum.

Alright, I'm done. I'll shut up now.

I think that if the Debate forum and the lounge became more, idk, related?, it would bring a lot more hostility into the Lounge. The Lounge is supposed to be a fun, off-beat, 'anything else', type of place.






But, that's just me.

i'm in favor of whatever, i mean obviously what we're doing now isn't working. we were better of when we gave it it's own forum in my opinion, but for some unknown reason jusun tried to tell the members of a site he doesn't frequent what people here want. i don't see why we can't just move it back, who cares about jusun's opinion when he didn't care about ours? even if a less active forum is at the front i don't see how that matters or hurts anyone.

anyway

we should make it more visible, even though i don't think it's going to be a booming place either way. cb has a bunch of people who couldn't care less about debate and also a lot of people who are too young to have a grasp of the issues in the first place. (not like i'm that i'm old, i'm just saying it's hard at 14 to know what's going on when you haven't even had classes on it in school.)

we need new people to get interested becuase i can already give answers for steven, brandon, nate and whoever else cause we've been there and done that.


IDK HOW TO FIX IT, BUT MOVE THE DEBATE FORUM TO THE FRONT.
