i don't think a site like this would allow for traditional debate like you might find at a school. it isn't the same world.
oh no, and i totally agree, that's what cross-x is for and others like that. i'm glad you don't have to put everything into its format for argumentation here. i debate at school, and we only debate nfl (national forensics league) approved topics. depending on what type you do, decreasing governmental authority to detain without charge or search without probable cause, minors charged with violent crimes charged as adults, or big box companies. different things for different people but not the most interesting topics in the world. and i'm glad that formats don't have to be followed to have something heard on hear. i agree.
