I know brainiac number 1 has plans...he always does. what about a more formalized set of rules for the debate section something as simple as a discussion section under debate.
Here's what I see.
Topic is debated -> discussion thread open for debate discussion civilly (sp?) ->people discuss topic civilly -> 30 days old the debate gets put in archives. that leaves a fully populated thread of discussions with civility rules? Or people can ignore the debate and it's subordinate discussion entirely. Or people can open a Ryleh thread on the debate to express their frustration less civilly?
No need to censor the rest of the forums more, and as long as people don't mind seeing the section on the newest, than I don't see any structural changes that need to be done.
Don't worry. We don't want you to hang out in Ryleh. We're going to try very hard to do this right, whatever it is. Remember, no one has decided a single, solitary thing. It could still be a section, but I hope that doesn't mean people will treat the rest of the forum like a dung heap. We'll see. For now, business as usual. Hopefully, with a few vocal civil cheerleaders practicing what they preach.

Am I not welcome to my opinion on the matter?
Fair enough.
I don't see where I said you couldn't have an opinion on the matter. I said it was scrapped. Why would I say you couldn't have an opinion?
You didn’t say that. And you know what? I apologize for using the word “hysteria”. It was more inflammatory than an accurate characterization of people’s opinions. I’m just really frustrated at the black lash this got. I just don’t understand why. Sorry if I came off as bitchy. I’m just feeling angry about it.
