You are not even close. You're an ordinary member, like me. I would have never launched this string.

Did you not see the latest announcement? 

Unless a miracle happens and Mike renews this website domain, the domain for this website expires at 1450 UTC (a little more than 12 hours from now).
One of the mods wrote that, not me

And Mike, himself, has said he will continue to pay for the site to stay up in the short-term [long enough to establish another domain] even though he is relinquishing ownership. So, your entire purpose in positing this string is of no consequence, which is why I don't think you should make sucks strings in the first place. When you own your own domain, go ahead.

He said that he would renew, but that doesn't mean he lived up to his word, and the evidence is that he did not. You can look up the domain on ICANN yourself.  It has not been renewed and is set to expire in less than a day.

Wasn't as attached to this site as debate.org, but I have been an active member of the mafia forum for 8 years so I will have some fond memories of the games there and the times had. I know the community will continue on though. If for some reason debatecraft doesnt work out, we will find somewhere else. We are well connected in this nerd social circle. 

Love you all.

You promise to never go outside again like Boburnham? 

How will you touch grass and BREATH AIR like Andrew Fake?

Ironically, I always envisaged you as a Penguin with attitude.

Spooky, that you should pick that as your avatar.

…less than a day
And you have been saying this for two days. Face it. You haven’t a clue what’s going on. Ask that this string by closed. To a mod. It’s worthlessness is all on you for starting it.

You will notice that the member who launched this string is neither the owner of the site, nor a mod, nor the president of the site. Don't you think such information should come from one of them? 
They were just repeating information from the official notification (Click on the green megaphone icon), David posted it as follows:


Dooms day is upon us!
Hello all,
This is a reminder to join our discord server found here: https://discord.gg/E6wJhdH8xS.

Please join our discord channel for news, updates, and to stay in touch. We are working on a brand new debate website, DebateCraft. The site is not functional yet but should be within the next few weeks.
Thank you for the memories and fun of debateart.com
See you on discord!

All you who use the site for free should pony up the three dollars per month to use it. You spend more on a cup of coffee every fucken day. You have no excuse.

Well, I agree, 3 dollars from 30 users would probably cover domain cost which is 50$ I assume.

The problem isn't funding, the problem is that the sole owner has basically gone AWOL

Plenty of people here including myself have donated to the Patreon in the past when it was available. The owner is literally just gone now.

There are so many more problems than that. LOL. The transition should be interesting. We'll see where the new sites at a year from now.

I asked ChatGPT some things about the site, and it said there was only one subcriber on Patreon. Is that true?

No, the owner is named Mike. His account literally has the username DebateArt I believe.
