Anyone who thinks their opinions are that important deserves to have them taken down a bit.

You feel quite strongly about that opinion, eh?

AF handled 'debate' much better by having certain topics which resulted in nothing but arguments which could NOT be posted about, and that should be done here if people want ToS to survive any longer than another year.

If you think anyone EVER only keeps their problem with others in 'debates' (which is, to steal a metaphor from cracked, like calling a serial rapist a 'can do casanova') then they are being unbelievably naive.
'Debates' create resentment between people, and that stays with them in ALL their replies to each other on every thread. Nobody ever cares about what the other person says, they just want to counter them.
I agree with the second point to a degree although people can learn not to take replies personally.

Although it's strange, you were often saying that you wanted to remove the debate threads but then what alternative would you offer? Or if no alternative could be made would present animosities still fester but only be enacted between members in PMs?

I have to say though I found your reply confusing since I wasn't sure who you were replying to and what you were replying to..

So you are saying that my opinion about opinions being meaningless is a strong one? Wouldn't that be like having a contradiction inside contradiction? Queue yo dawg...

I guess the problem is that these days, if you take away the (although sometimes somewhat heated) discussion involved, you take away about 90% of the content of this forum.

I'd say the debate forum is pretty deserted these days. I remember when we had huge racket going on there, especially when Woodsprite was still here. I miss those days, because I don't care if there are arguments and disagreements, because I still like talking with people on the net regardless of topic.
