Should CD be renamed: "CD for children"?

CD is an intellectual playground for children. 

Very few adults are active participants.  Could it be because of the presence of children?

Yes

No

No argument is required to prove the truth of the status of CD.

It is simply axiomatic that CD is the playground of children. I therefore think CD is an inaccurate name for the site, and had I known children were playing I would have not entered.

How many adults will invite children to participate in a debate? None!

Is that a practicable reality at CD? Obviously not!

"How many adults will invite children to participate in a debate? None!"

Somehow I never thought of it in those terms, but it's a good way to put it.

Side: yes

Is that why I wasn't invited to this debate? Wait! I'm not a child!

(see argument on other side)

Side: yes

I invite none of these little weasel warts unless I know them to be serious and honest. My entire ally list gets invited to mine...but not these. They need a CD For Children. It's how they act, what they are, they think KARMA bombing is cool and they need a good whack in the arse. I say get rid of them, before all the adults take off to greener pastures. I've brought this up before in many ways and CD itself couldn't care one iota.

I understand what you are saying, but I'm not sure what you want. Like a separate part for teens or something?

Side: yes

Oh yes Jake...like you've never heard this before. Now you're hearing it from elsewhere. Don't act dumb...and now you've brought your brother in to make it worse. Great offense...and he is nothing but offensive.

Side: yes

With this group of people (naming no one in particular), yes. Maybe then we'd get some decent feedback, at least children don't act like they know everything and when they do their opinions weren't spoon fed to them as truth.

Side: yes

I must also concur. I for one have visited this site less and less due to the lack of intelligent conversation.

I must commend you lawnman for engaging in interesting conversation and debate.

Perhaps a title such as CDT should be created which would be the acronym for Create Debate Teen. :)

Hello Beinglostats,

Create Debate Teen?

Excellent idea, CD could also segregate the debates that are authored by teens from those authored by adults.

Children? To whom is this debate referring to? I feel that I am neither a child, nor do I call myself an adult. I am somewhere in the middle, kind of like, oh, I don't know, a teenager! But reguardless of what I consider myself, I find that there are tons of adults who are active participants on CD. And changing the name to CD for Children is, at least in my eyes, an act of segragation.

Besides, having to type in www.createdebateforchildren.com is way more frusterating than just www.createdebate.com! (;

I agree.

Altarion...it would be well deserved for the rest not you or a few more. Don't even begin to tell me you have the remotest thing in common with these little minds in most debates they put their half-pence into!

Side: yes

I think you're confused.

The people on here aren't children, they just act childish at some times...

Actually, I have yet to encounter but a few a "children" on CD....

Side: No

Are you serious? Even though there are less mature adult debates going around because of people like coughs JC... (hehe)... do you think children could come up with such childish and entertaining nonsense? Neh. :-)

Side: No

Wait!

You are new to CD. Come back to this debate after you have been a member for a couple of months. You may observe the same non-entertaining incompetence we adults were observing six weeks ago, which consequently justified the question of this debate.

I think it would be a total turn off and there are quite a numerous amount of adults on the site. The top scorer page mainly consists of adults with like 10 kids.

It takes nothing but continuous writing to do that Wolf...It

is not a badge of honor...it's a badge of work put in, you know?

Side: yes

That is true and most of the top score table that consist of kids are kids that debate well. The longer you do something the better you become at it, thats my outlook and in chess playing against someone better than you only makes you better. Debating against adults is a good thing for me as I am learning plenty.

Side: No

This continuous work is mainly from adults, mainly because children dont have the attention span, to continuously express and type out their opinion.

Side: yes
