H2H: Looking To Debate? This Is Your One Stop Shop


<<  1    2    3    4    5    6    7  >>

Allow some time to pass and then we will initiate another one in the not too distant future. I think both members should read through some of the previous H2H Debates, and then look through the debate forum that I know you have a link to, and look at how members have approached the debates in the past. At least 95% of our posts should be our own words, not copy & pastes from other sites. And most importantly, read the rules.

well, im open to debating explosives used on 911 (i dont think there were any) the 2nd amendment (im very pro gun) or anything dealing with WMD's in general. (i have a "bit" of experience in that field)

i like a good FRIENDLY debate and the only rule i may have issues with is the 24hr to reply thing. due to my health i cant ALWAYS be on my comp but ill try my best.

All participants receive the Fighter status. Whether you win or lose, you retain it as well.

Next H2H Battle...

Were Explosives Used in 9/11?

Damocles & whatukno are up.

Good Luck!

Attention All Participants



Make sure that you have been awarded the "Fighter" status before you attempt to begin your debate. Anyone who has requested a debate will be awarded the status. It may take a day, so please be patient. If you notice that I have authored your thread but you still do not have the status, just be patient. It will all be taken care of, I assure you.

But if you do not have the "Fighter" status, you will not be able to submit a post to the Head-2-Head Forum.

Just keep that in mind when your ready to do battle.

There has been a slight hold up with some members, but nothing that will not be resolved asap.

ATTN: Rule Change



In the first few debates, I've noticed a small trend that we should try to curb immediately. For all debates from here on out, a new standard will be implemented. Very benign change, just a small tweak that has our members working harder.


9. Quoting external sources is strictly forbidden. Members are permitted to reference links as sources, but they are not permitted to quote external sources. The only quotes that should be used in these debates are that of their opponent's replies.

General H2H Debate Rules



This means that members can no longer go to sites and copy/paste text from other people, and use this as their ammunition in debates. If you are going to reference something, you may only use the link itself. The text itself must be put into your own words. This is a debate forum, we do not want to see lengthy copy and pastes from other websites.

Can I Quote My Opponent?

YES! Of course you can quote the reply of your opponent in an attempt to refute his or her points. That is perfectly acceptable and almost preferred. But if any member is caught quoting external websites, they will have their reply deleted and risk forfeiture of the debate.

We are all here for a good time, so we will be lenient. Just keep this in the back of your mind. All of the current debates will not have this enforced, as the rules are already binding. But from hereon out, this is the standard.




With that said, allow me to introduce the newest H2H Debate!

Head-2-Head: Palestinian Independence

This standard has been implemented for this debate.

Good Luck!
