Yes absolutely. The whole concept of debate is to discuss topics and have your morals, values and views changed. Banning someone for the sole reason that they don't agree with you is indeed childish. Anyone who wishes to ban or block anybody with differing opinions should go to the Facebook comments or any social media, not a debating website. Side: Yes, what poppycock
On a debate site such as this one, yeah, I would say that banning somebody for simply expressing opinions that you as a debate moderator do not like or agree with is, in fact, childish. Not to mention cowardly. What really pisses me off is when the debate authors attack and insult a member's post, and then ban him, thereby denying that member any chance to respond. Another tactic of serial banners that REALLY chaps my ass is when they ban folks for doing the exact same things THEY do when they post on the debates of others. This is hypocrisy at its worst. I am not going to mention the names of the two or three members here who frequently engage in these juvenile and unfair tactics, as we all know full well who they are. IMHO, banning is only justified to prevent a member from being needlessly abusive, or for continually going off topic. Or what is called "hijacking a thread." But so far as banning for mere disagreement or dislike? Or banning as a sort of power trip? Just because you CAN? No...that's bullshit. And ever time I see it done I lose more respect for the debate abilities of the person doing it. SS Side: Yes, what poppycock

It's a certain sign of cowardice and a barren mind. It's akin to only competing with someone who you know you can beat. Or eliminating the source of a counter argument you haven't the intellectual ability to confront and address with a reasoned and rational response. Side: Yes, what poppycock
Yes 1) This is a debate website. You sign up knowing that it is. Real debaters can debate anyone. Censoring an opponent is not debating. Why are you even here then? 2) The fact they don't just ban the opponent but go on with multiple chastising posts against them even after they can't respond is a clear sign of childishness. 3) There are a half dozen competing debate websites on the web and this is the only one with this crazy feature allowing the maker of the debate to ban opponents. The fact all the others can exist without it shows it's really not essential. Side: Yes, what poppycock
Lol, yes! That second part is so funny! It's always amazing how much some people like to toot their own horn and strut around because they banned someone then continue to trash/chastise/berate the person they banned like they actually "won". Then they get upset when the person they banned copies the argument to their own debate so they can continue to add their views. Side: Yes, what poppycock
If they are banned simply because they disagree then yes, absolutely. Don't be on a debate site if you simply want Yes Men. If they are banned because they are disrespectful and off topic then I can maaaaaybe see banning but only really in those circumstances. Otherwise, heck yeah you are being childish if you want to be petty and ridiculous by banning someone who simply disagrees. Side: Yes, what poppycock
