Debates.

People here like to debate and its hard to pick what to debate about. So I'll make new debates each week. Don't post anything inappropriate that may insult the other person. Have fun debating. This is to be a healthy debate that should not cause flamewars or conflict.

  Topic- Pokemon game Black or White?

Re: Debates.

One HP/Twilight debate does not mean we "love" debating. While it is entertaining to share and discuss points about an argument, I'm guessing the only debates you'll find will be politically or religiously based. Something against the rules here.

Not love, and this has nothing to do with Hp and Twi. I just see debating everywhere so why not?

On a tangent note to this:

@SuperYoshiluver13: You seem to be new to the Miscellaneous forum, so I would suggest that you look over Guidelines to Miscellaneous Forums, particularly about the part about not creating topics that are likely to cause arguments.

While we do have topics some debate topics that jump from time to time, some topics (particularly anything that deals with politics or religion) have a tendency to be flame-y very easily - for such topics I would suggest using a well-established external debate forum instead of the Scratch Forums (a Google search will show up hundreds of possible forums for such debates).

Re: Debates.

It is NOT okay. This will provoke flamethrowers, no matter what.

I suggest you try SD.

I'm not talking about politics, religion, or anything like that! I think that the topic above works out fine!

Just because you disagree with my opinion doesn't mean I never said it.

And I have nothing to debate.

Re: Debates.

Debates are terrible! All they do is cause hate. Or fires. No thread acting as a catalyst for debate should be allowed on Scratch! What a terrible idea this was.

Re: Debates.

Well, this topic is going well, isn't it? If you want a nice a friendly topic to debate about, why not try something like "Which Doctor Who monster is the best?" or "Who's better: RTD or Moffat?" Just some Doctor Who examples for you.  wink

Why would you suggest something that you've practically made? (the DW monster thread)

The thing I made is a poll, not a debate.

Well, that seems a bit of an over-reaction - are we clear on our definitions of what a debate is?

From Wikipedia: Debate -  A formal discussion on a particular topic in a public meeting or legislative assembly, in which opposing arguments are put forward

There is nothing wrong with debating as long as the Terms of Use and the Forum Guidelines are followed.  Debating is very good mental exercise and might even change a few opinions on a topic.
