Advertising your debate on the debates of others?

I've at times fallen into the temptation of mentioning the less active of my debates on the debates of other members and I've wondered whther this is ethically correct?

As long as you answer the debate first... then I see no problem with advertising your own, especially if it's a related topic.

If you provide a genuine reply to the debate then mention a relevant debate of your own, I wouldn't have a problem with it. It's only senseless spamming that I'd hate.

There is nothing wrong with advertising. I see no harm (like hellno said) if they answer the debate first. You are not forced to click the debates that they are advertising and that is what make me fine with it. If you are interested, click it. If not, don't click it. There is no "force" at all.

Nope! It is not wrong! You mention your debates, only so that they gain a little popularity. What is wrong with that. It does no harm!

I think it's annoying when people advertise their debates on other people's. Stay on topic. Your debate will show up on the debate list. If no one responded to your debates, then they must not have been very interested in them.

"If no one responded to your debates, then they must not have been very interested in them."

I disagree, one of the problems I find as an Briton is that due to times differences and the many americans on this site, many of my debates hardly stay on the "new debates" section.

I understand what you are saying. That would be a problem. Do you ever click the "invite allies" link before you finish creating your debates?

Spam is spam is spam. Shameless self promotion wherever is wrong.

As moderator of the debate, you can go back into that debate and click on share and send it back out to your allies if you think they may respond to it.
