I'd like to propose an idea. I haven't necessarily worked out all the details but it would go something like this...
we get two LPSG members to agree to a one-on-one debate on issues (topics TBD) and they square off in a thread, alone, without interference. We would need moderator assistance in deleting unwarranted posts by anyone other than the two debaters.
Additionally, there would be a separate, follow-along thread for discussion by everyone else. Conversely the debaters don't participate in the discussion thread
An example of this might look like this:
Thread titles:
Debate 1: Redneckgymnast v slurper_la: Topic A
Debate 1: Discussion thread
thoughts? is this a crazy idea?
