that's quite true...however...someone like JH, will more often post rubbish...

It's an excellent idea. Well done Zypher
He has posted many good topics ( I think ) if not, he debates well.

The problem: Mods having to move bad post out of the intelligent debate section.

Solution: Post them some were else so the Mods can move them back in.

There is no difference in moving bad posts out or moving good ones in. It just SOUNDS like a solution.

Pretty much agree, which is why I made the change with a "=/" face, and will probably reverse it after a while.

Either way there is gonna be stupid topics I suppose. It's just kind of like a meh change. And people probably won't intelligently discuss something in General Chat, which means no topics will be moved and Intelligent Debate will cease to be active.

Being able to spell should also be a prerequisite for posting here.

Just cuz you can't spell doesn't mean your opinions are not Vaild or that your not intelligent.

I agree people should check to if a thread has already been made though:-

IDEA
How about this for an idea making the Intelligent Debate Forum a privallige, should people spam it up or use insults rather than debtaing you take the privillage away so they can't enter... Bit like the MOD forum, give us all acess and slowly Ban the people making it a shite hole.

Nah its Easy...

They make Intelligent debate only viewable if you have a certain field flagged for example Call it Brain Box (or BB)... Give every one BB status, and take it away should they start being an Ass...

And I have the same problem as you now... LOL Clone posting...

Funny stuff. Once again, I was on a mentally induced high.

Also - I like the idea of a promotion rather than demotion system. Although the choices made could not be biased. For example, if a popular member makes a topic discussing whether blue or green is a better color, it should not be put into intelligent debate simply because they made it. Nor an intelligent debate  left in General chat because a lesser known member made it. Or intelligent debates being ignored because they hit touchy subjects.

Is Tiggers are wonderful things
Their tops are made out of rubber
Their bottoms are made out of springs

They’re bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun!
But the most wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is I’m the only one, I’m the only one."

You're right. Stupid questions belong in the spam and will stay like that.

Without trying to offend anyone, I think its kind of funny that Zypher is the one that has to tell you not to post stupid shit in here. Not that he's ever spammed up a thread before. Also, making normal people unable to post new topics raises the fascism meter 10 points. I understand where you're coming from with having to delete stupid topics and such, but if someone legitimately wants to talk about something, they have no way to post it short of asking a mod to do it for them. But then again, I'm just a ranting idiot, so you should probably pay no mind to me. CONTINUE AS YOU WERE.

You speak to me as if i am a lesser being than you, and my opinions on "intelligent debate" mean less than yours. Of course there is general chat, but that's like having meaningful conversation with a wallow of pigs: Nobody understands, and pretty soon, someone is going to throw a heap of garbage into the mix.

I want to talk about how cookies are made and I just post it in Intelligent Debate. You think this makes sense?! It's not on us to judge what is intelligent and what is not, but to decide if it belongs there or not. The problem is that somebody will post something that he might think it is intelligent, but it isn't. And it isn't called debate just for fun.

Of course there is general chat, but that's like having meaningful conversation with a wallow of pigs: Nobody understands, and pretty soon, someone is going to throw a heap of garbage into the mix.

Do you want to say, General Chat is more likely to be spammed up? I have been here long enough to know this isn't not true. Just look at the recent posts by Elegy in Intelligent Debate. =/

The problem is the psychology behind the forum. When people see Intelligent Debate, they feel obliged to make a thread about religion or government or the same exact bullshit we always see just because they think it makes them look intelligent. THAT is what I hoped to put a stop to with my proposition.

Here's an idea:

If it's NOT ABOUT RELIGION, DON'T TALK ABOUT THE BIBLE.

If it's ABOUT SCIENCE, DON'T TRY TO DISPROVE IT WITH RELIGION.

One cannot effect the other anyway, as one cannot disprove the other, so bringing up either outside of a related topic in the form of an argument is inane, and furthermore, completely ignorant.

Stop complaining, you would of had to have moved them from general chat to here anyway, now your just moving them back. It's the same amount of work, it just seems like more because people stoped posting intelligent threads because of the tyranny of previously locking this section.
