Do you have a difference with someone on the forum and you want to debate them alone without interference from others? Then this is the place.
Here is how you can proceed:
1) Obviously find an opponent and decide on the parameters of what you want to discuss and how to identify each other's positions.
2) Send a PM to me and I will set up a thread.
3) Each poster is to write a brief explanation of their position. When you have written your position statement, let your opponent know and try to post them in the same time frame.
4) Decide who wants to go first with a rebuttal.
Here is the format...
1) Introductory statement by each participant.
2) Up to 5 reply posts by each poster. This will keep the discussion from dragging on and on.
3) A final summary post by each participant.
4) A poll after the debate is finished.
4) Open the thread up to everyone.
