Offtopic Debate Board

<< < (6/6)

TannerWolf:
Aye, if the mini-mods don't get on a lot, and keep watch, fights could happen and things COULD possibly get bad... We don't want that.
It really wouldn't be good.

The White Lion:
Indeed! Definitely yes, sounds GREAT!

Rukata:
I say yes to this.

As others have said, as long as there are mods watching it, it should be fine. Also, I wish it could count to post count, since I will be visiting it very often if one is put up. I would say there should be a way to perhaps downvote something someone says, which could draw attention for the mods, like they get a message saying that the discussion may be getting heated. However, since such a power could easily be abused, it wouldn't work. I mean, anyone who disagreed with that person would downvote, it would be a nightmare.

The thing is, what if a mod watching the board doesn't like someone's post, or the entire thread? Could they just delete it and everyone except those who created it would be fine with it? Well, there is no real answer to this possible problem for later. You could make it so mods could only move a topic away in the board, for the other mods to view it and decide democratically if it should be put back. They should, however, be able to add notes onto the posts (assuming that allowing them to only move is done, which is unlikely to me) that way, they can tell people, "Hey guys, turn down the heat or the thread will be moved." Of course, I have no idea what the limitations of these board types are, so it's probably not doable.

So, I still say yes, all things considered.

Edit: Forgot to mention: If a debate board is added, at the very least a spoiler button should be added as well, for those who discuss games and the like in this board - that way.. well, people won't be spoiled. Plus, it could be useful in other areas of the forum, like image threads. :)

Vulpes:
I think there would be a lot of older members who would be willing to take on the job as mini-mod for this board, if the ones right ow, aren't on enough. I really want this to happen.
