Static Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 This topic should be in debates. Resolve: The Debate section here does not need topic approval. The approval requires that a lot of time goes by before a topic can be debated. At the current rate, the area will die before any of the 4 topics I have posted in the last 24 hours, and the one that I posted 2-3 weeks ago to try to bring the area back to life will ever see approval or disapproval. Should The Debate's section have the "topic approval" removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HORUS Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Remove topic approval. Half of the approved topics get locked anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Culpa Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Yes, I would have to agree. The delay is horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slash Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I suck at debating, which is why I almost never even step foot in the Debates forum.But I can easily see why that would be a problem xDI approve =\ I need to get better at debating =p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I um, debated once. And I was quite bad. But seeing that the debates section is nearly dead, I say 'yes' to your statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willieh Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 This should totally be removed. Barely any threads are ever made in the Debate's section, and when they are they usually aren't spam or stupid topics. Really, the waiting period is just a nuisance. Edit: Sorry for that random japanese sheet. XD Forgot the IME. =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Poison Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I'd suggest removing the topic approval and adding approved members that can post in the debate section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Debates is dead. We need new topics...the like, 5 remaining active topics aren't even worth debating over anymore, its just the same people saying the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 But what happens when some noob starts trolling the debates forum. Or when people post topics that aren't really debates. Just playing devils advocate. I agree with all of you, however, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larxene Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I say yes, but it won't really help either way. General is pretty much at its worst right now, so unless you feel like dealing with all of the incredibly stupid people who post there, then just let it die.

Just playing devils advocate. I agree with all of you' date=' however,[/quote'] Honestly, I'd rather have a really shitty version of debates, than a completely dead one that had 3-5 played out topics at any given time. And I'm assuming the people who frequent Debates will be a little less tolerant of troll threads than the people of General. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I understand why we have this, but I do agree that it isn't worth it. All a mod needs to do is check in the section every now and again to see if the threads are forum appropriate. Even if mods don't check we have to report button for a reason.
