View Full Version : Head to head
I was wondering if we could get a head to head debate forum going.
Where two people can go and debate without the interference of others.
I think it would be a great addition and would work just so long as everyone followed the rules.

We'd discussed this when we started up TPA and I think we've just been waiting for things to settle in. Its a fantastic idea, especially if we could get another site involved :whistle
I know of a couple that might be intrested
Argue with Everyone
and
DiscussAnything
I think it's a fabuous idea! I'll get back to you on it.

Head to Head debates are good, as long as the rules are followed and the friends of the debaters don't jump in.

Now that sounds a lot more fair than what I went up against.
AYFR...was it actually that bad?:lmao
Thorn from my viewpoint it was 4 against 1 and you beat all of them.

damn...
ok, what about women in the military?
Women with guns, that's my ultimate fantasy.
Oh It's cool with me
I mean a platoon full of women on PMS carring guns and ready to shoot anything that move.
Sounds like the perfect army to me.

Good Luck AYFR. I wouldn't trade you places for a million dollars.
I get MW, you mean MW is against women in them military?
Start whenever. We can always post then wait till the other person posts.
Being the gentlemen I am, MW can go first.
Damn straight - women's place is at home, not out in the field distracting our men.
Nay, you go ahead and start it - I'm sure my balls are bigger than yours.
:rofl

I'll start a new thread then. Oh do you really want to compare them.
Isn't that the whole point of the debate? :naughty
:lmao
OK well that forum won't let me in so I'll start here and let the Admin move it there.
I really have no problem with women in the military, even in combat situations. I know several women that know how to hadle guns better than men. I mean why not, if they want to go and fight for this country then more power to them. Geez they let gays in adn that has got to be more distracting then women.
It would also be a great psychological weapon against the enemy. Just imagine a whole platoon of armed women coming straight at you. That would have to really mess up some peoples head.
Ummm, I'm not seeing how to opt in on the vb plaza either.
I just found this
TPA Debate Rules & Regulations
Debates will be locked down to only the people registered - that is, if Indy and I are going to debate, only Indy and I will be able to post. The only exception to this is that mods and admins may step in at any time, but that is only if things get out of hand.
NO NAME CALLING is allowed. We want facts. We want TRUE INTELLIGENT debate.
We encourage you to challenge another member to a debate. Work out your time/date and PM a mod or admin with the details. Please give us at least 24 hours notice to set it up for you.
Debators will receive extra points for debating.
TPA administration reserves the right to change these guidelines at any time.OK then we need to wait for Tarot to start it then.

Is it the Secondary Forum under the Special Interest button on the VbPlaza main?
:para
Not that I ever plan on going head to head. :para Just trying to understand. :snicker
Maybe but the above said that an Admin had to set it up. I think what you are talking about is for people that light want to watch the "festivities"

I was able to get to the part where you post the new thread in the debate forum without going through the plaza. :shrug
Yes but did you try and start a thread?

I wasn't trying to start one... just figure out how it all works since it would appear I'm not the only one who isn't exactly sure.
