debating ethics, what's acceptable to do in a debate. |
Debate Rules
Here are the general forum rules that you must follow before you start any debate topics. Please make sure you've read and followed all directions.
- Topics are not to bash others.
- Immature behaviors/comments will not be tolerated.
- Please remember, not everyone thinks like you. People have different ways of thinking and different perspectives. Let's respect each other's thoughts and responses.
- PLEASE, search before making new topics--especially popular topics like "God" and "Abortion" etc.
- PLEASE, read through the thread or at least a couple pages before posting. We have to maintain a certain level of maturity in here.

alright, i'm sure that people are going to dissagree on this...
you shouldn't personally attack a memeber. attack their cause, their belifs, but not them. |

haha. alright.
i love sarcasm. it's great. not very easy to use online tho. i think emotion in a debate is ok, but not showing it. if you appear unaffected by your oppenent's snide remarks, then the remarks will not work. my favorite reply when someone calls me a name is 'why thank you  ' it flusters them quite so. |
