I try to stay out of the debates..seems lately though that they are being carried over into the discussion section. I think its because we cant delete replies in the debate section.  |

I do remember when the debate section was more heated. Heck I almost got myself banned a couple times. I think people started taking it a little to far and were forced to either slow it down or get banned..those debates did get pretty offensive though.  |

personally, I think the differences in opinions in debates leak into the relationships of the posters and sometimes causes a lot of anymosity in the past in between members here. At least that's been my observation. The religious debates were the worst. They brought out the worst in both Christians and Agnastics and Witches alike...nobody was a good example for the group they spoke for. |

I miss the old USM also. We use to have more stories too just not all quotes and stuff...we use to have some really good stories.  |

I never was one to debate on here a lot, so honestly I couldnt tell you which was worse or better. I have seen though a lot of personal lashings continue even after the debates were over, on all sides. I don't classify that as a good thing for anyone. This is the first I have heard that R-1 was banned too..but then again I havent been here much lately. *hugs*  |

R1 was banned?? I just saw a comment from him a few days ago... I haven't been in the debate section for a long time so I don't really kno which is/was better.  |

Me too deb, I think I responded more back then. But now, if things get a little heated then seems like everything gets deleted. And then now there is still the name calling, but not all of them get deleted for their attitude. Oh well. As far as r1 he is still here. YEP I miss hugo's funny stuff too.  |

I preferred the old debates where you could at least say your piece without getting deleted. Yes, they were heated, but everyone knew where people stood on various subjects. Unfortunatley, we have people now that want us to be all nicey-nicey to each other, and telling the truth can get you deleted, if not banned.  |

*agrees with TwoSpirits* I preferred the old debate 'rules' and administration...replies got certainly get a lot more heated and passionate before the plug got pulled. I wouldn't say it was necessary more 'free' or 'lax', instead it was like there was an understanding that often 'debate' revolves around some very deeply held beleifs/opinions...as such its more likely that people will become more passionate and thus more 'aggressive' in their responses. This however had its benefits...it allowed those who engaged in some good ol verbal sparring to actually gain a deeper understanding of their 'foe'. Back when i joined I can recall having more than a few full-on 'knock down drag 'em out' verbal battles with a number of members here today. In the beginning I will be honest enough to say I disliked those people whom I 'debated' with, and believe me we were opposed to throwing in a few cheap shots here and there at eachother. But you know what, during each engagement we learnt more and more about what the other held true...more and more about how that person ticked, what they believed in and who they were OUITSIDE of just a name/tag on USM. These people I now have much respect for...for through 'battle' came respect and understanding. Look...theres one just up there now ^^^^ Deb/FB...oh, I'm sure we even DID use the kitchen sink to hit eachother with one time *lol* HI DEBS!. Peace,  |

Join if I "dare"? If I dare to CARE to be involved with such vile word usage and images as I have seen at some of those other sites. Hmmm. Right. The "alternative" to no heated, passionate debates at USM is to go "R" rated. What a choice. God Bless. |
