Can we have a more relaxed debate forum?

Can we have a more relaxed debate forum?
So...anyway, the last post in the debate section was in 2015..that's not to say the design is bad or anything but it's way too smart and I think people would benefit if it was toned down a bit?

Anyway, my suggestion is to kind of tone it down and just have rules like:

*Don't insult, troll, circlejerk
*no ad hominem attacks

..that's just from the top of my head but yeah, a bunch of general rules to make sure debates don't devolve to insults instead of too much rules? I don't really have an exact idea but I'm just saying let's have a conversation

Again, I'm not saying it's currently bad or anything, it's okay, but if we made some modifications it would be more okay..and maybe we will have more interesting debates.
