So what would be the difference between General and your suggested forum?

It's just a debate section. General is for general lol. If someone wants to find debates they can easily go to the section instead of searching for it through general
 
I voted yes, but not for a new section. I merely want people to start doing a better job of keeping shit on topic, you can have intellectual discussions so long as people stop trying to deviate them into shitstorms.
 
There are plenty of forums to hold intelligent debates

This is a gaming forum

p.s. I voted no
 
If you'd like to hold "intelligent debates" of your own, simply make a thread pertaining to a topic you're perturbed about or interested in and post it to general.
This forum is really not for that anyway.

They ARE shitstorms, but justified and actually make sense instead of pure bullshit in unmod.

No.

It would imply that the elsewhere debate isn't expected to be intelligent.

I'd rather promote it as a whole rather than segregate it to a certain part of the forums.
