I think most of these ideas are serviceable, but I would still do a survey to pick out the best name.

A quick explanation on why I chose debate craft for those who are confused ;
It has relation to debating as you craft your arguments and also sounds quite smooth in my opinion.

Yeah... Like an art.

I liked it because it sounded cool and was reminiscent enough of "debateart" to feel like a thematic successor.

It doesnt really matter what is the name of site.

You can pick a good name. Trash site filled with toxic abusers and overmoderation wont ever gonna become anything good.
So far the most popular seem to be
DebateCraft
lidebate
DebateOwl
DART.com where DART is an acronym for something we make up

You're not going anywhere, I still need help with Two Worlds. The game is so old and obscure you can't even google some of this shit.
People have always complained the site is overmoderated even though I've never seen policies here any stronger than any other website I've been on.

Same topics I debate here, I debate on YouTube.
YouTube: 0 warnings so far.
Here: 1 ban, about 10 ban threats from moderators and over 30 warnings in total, along with all the nasty comments and direct threats I got from users.
But sure, you can pick a better name for the site.
"DebateFox" is available.DebateGate sounds pretty nice, but just wondering, what does it have relation to this website?Sounds like a scandal. MasterDebater is a poor brand for similar reasons.
You are silent on this one so I'm going to mark it down as passing the vibe check. *scribbles on paper*

I've found that on huge platforms like Youtube moderating can be either extremely laissez-faire or absolutely aggressive and arbitrary (TikTok).
@lucystarfire
If you tell YT youre a pedo and all that stuff you believe about consent, you will find it happens there too.

@Castin
absolutely aggressive and arbitrary (TikTok)
Tik Tok has barely any moderation. People post almost porn-like videos, blood magic, videos almost promoting crime... It censors some words, but people find ways to bypass that too. Tik Tok is even considered to be banned in some countries for too extreme content.
If you tell YT youre a pedo and all that stuff you believe about consent, you will find it happens there too.
No, there are even debates on YouTube defending child marriages and promoting age gap relationships. I did get couple of threats from people on YouTube for comments I posted, but never a warning or anything from actual moderators.

TikTok is either letting outrageous content pass or banning good content for no reason. I follow so many people on TikTok whose videos are randomly taken down for violations that have nothing to do with the content of the video. Dylan Page recently had every video of his taken down at once and then his account locked, for... drumroll... no reason. And it's a pain in the ass getting it undone, too. A science teacher I follow regularly has his educational vids pulled because a rando makes a complaint that they're anti-religion or something, and easy as that they're gone.
I shall pray for justice to find you Lucy Starfire.

People found ways around ban. I see one person has more than 20 accounts on Tik Tok. I see weird content all the time. I keep seeing that Chinese woman videos where she shows men how to finger/fuck women. If you watch just one weird video on Tik Tok, you get like 20 more of them when scrolling. The system is made to test which weird content you like and then it gives you that.
I shall pray for justice to find you Lucy Starfire
I love you too.
What about DebateDen.com? (I really like alliteration) My first choice though would be simply Debate.com if we could get it.
Also, who all is looking to be a moderator?

Just a simple suggestion and an explanation that’s all

@21Pilots
We have a good name. Very decent.
This is like a guy at the gym, alreafy got decent biceps and every time he does his curls and asks why arent his lats growing.
None of the names are catchy, and they don’t have to be.
Literally any of the generic site titles work.
Even DebateArt is fine as it is.
I found netspat catchy.

TikTok and twitter represent the exact opposite of my modding philosophies. It’s ridiculous the stuff that TikTok allows and takes down. I’ve seen really solid religious and pro Israel content taken down for no reason.
On twitter foreign disinformation bots run amock without impunity and is a cesspool of hatred and disinformation.

It is great that you dont want to be like them, even tho they are most popular in the world.

Let's focus on community size.
What's the total member rate that this site could handle right now? Think of a range.
We don't have enough mods at the moment to handle rapid user growth.

Which is exactly why we want to bring on new mods - to breath new life into the site and be able to handle rapid growth.
One of the biggest things I want to fix is the SEO. Debate art is so hard to find

I will show you new. I will show you revolution.
Promote me or do not pretend you want new.
