I use that site under the name someone234 but I am an old-school debate site user. If there were generations in the history of debate sites and trolling them, I was in the second generation and this present day is generation eleven. Debate.org bullied me and banned me for sticking up for myself. This site did ban me but the second chance is key. I love createdebate and may well use this until I die or get too old to type coherently. So I'm a bit torn when debate island and CD fight because both are great sites but in terms of old-school debating there were only two sites that seriously competed and since ddo copied CD by adding polls and multiway opinion fights, I respect CD much more.

Last night Debateisland launched Artificial Intelligence capability, that's pretty amazing. Those who prefer unfiltered debating with ability to insult anf bully others online may find it less than ideal, but those who appreciate being part of a civil community (like myself will love it. Side: Yes

Your site brainwashes people and censors opposition. This seems to be the problem with most debating platforms. Either the mods or the owners themselves find it too difficult to remain politically neutral and hence their platforms eventually devolve into places where everyone thinks alike. My experience of this site however is different. The owner rarely gets involved at all. Here we have anarchist trolls, socialist trolls, Nazi trolls and everything inbetween. Side: Yes

excon does have a point though. You've been on this site for 277 days and only have 10 arguments, 8 of those are about other debate sites. You've created three debates, two of which are about other debate sites. It seems like you are trying to advertise your own site and using any discontent on this one as a platform. It's a debate site, all debate sites are going to have arguments, that's the nature of the beast. Your generic statements actually make it less likely that I would join the site you are advertising. But hey, that's just me. Side: No

I have criticised the site on specific points. Each time I make such a topic he removes the topic and either does what I said to do to improve the site or chooses to totally ignore it and then asks me to pay for premium access after ignoring my point. Their admin is a joke. Side: Yes
What I disgust most is the domain name ".com" !!! Because of the "prefices" and acronymization rules, many acronyms have to be prefices of words, some of which are meaningless!! The prefix "com-" of "commercial" is now meaningless while "mercial", the main part, carries the meaning (It comes from Latin "merx"). Side: No
