While there are certainly a myriad of opinions, in an effort to keep the site as free speech friendly as possible, we only clean out spam, heavy use of profanity (not the occasional use) and direct attacks on individuals who are not public figures. The rest we leave up to the indivdual to filter. Side: They got lives XD
the myriad opinions are far from the problem. If I wanted to be surrounded by my own opinions I would write a blog, not join a debate site. however, there is little visible cleaning of spam, profanity, or ad hominems. I recall an event in which a single person was able to post a page long poem concerning the beauty of G-d on every document in the top fifty debates, and the spam filter simply was not removing the madness, and I as an individual simply didnt have enough down votes in the world to eliminate such a (poorly written) poem from entirely unrelated debates such as "do aliens exist" Side: They got lives XD
Don't know but I like the site... we all need to try to get more people to join... spread the word on other sites you are on... I've gotten about 15 to join so far... unfortunately most of them, made their account, answered a couple debates and haven't really come back. About 3 or 4 of them are using CD some what regularly.

First, I appreciate all of the support from everyone, but my deepest thanks to the regular users. Things actually have been picking up over the last few months, but there are some interesting seasonal trends that go on with the site. One trend I seemed to have noticed is that in early April people tend to frequent here less. I assume everyone is busy getting their taxes done. So far, Twitter has been relatively effective at bringing in new blood...we are adding between 25 - 50 new registered users per day. I am going to try to go after Facebook and get some new folks that way in the next few weeks. I have also been considering a promotion (maybe for an iPad giveaway). Just a thought. We also picked up a new advertiser over the weekend. Go Check his site out if you have the desire. Thanks for your support, Andy Side: They got lives XD
