I recently logged into Debate.org to convince the remaining members to move to DART.

As I scoured through every nook and cranny of the site, I found a lush amount of users to bring over here.

In the Religion forum.

The Religion Forum, the most hated of all of DDO's forum, is the only forum with an active community. For years, many users have pleaded to Juggle for them to smite the Religion forum. In Imabench's film "DDO: The Movie" the Religion forum is a repeated punchline in the jokes throughout the movie. In the end of the film, the Religion forum is destroyed.

Out of all the forums, the Religion forum is the only one of DDO's remaining forums. The rest have been wiped out by spambots.

How ironic is it, that the one forum everyone wanted to see destroyed, is the last one standing?

Very. However, it's not the only source of irony from DDO's demise. For example, DDO: The Movie pits the users of DDO against waves of spambots, led by General Phyuck_You. In the end of the film, DDO's users stand victorious. Years later, the site fell. To spambots. Furthermore, the same site that was also brought into its golden age by Juggle, is the same site that died, with barely any action from Juggle.

Its kinda weird on mobile but if you click the -> " <- button next to the underline option on the right, it creates a block that you can type in to quote whatever you are responding to

Last time I glanced at that site, debate island spam filled six continuous pages of the main forum...

Max made me watch that DDO movie thing, and in the end I was glad that I did. I didn't get some of the inside Debate.org jokes, but it was very cleverly done, and melodramatic in the best ways.

That's because you are all bigots and the ones there are banned from here. You might know that if not a jerk.

I have no idea why there is any love for a guy who let DDO fail.

He tried his best. It is hard when you 

A. Have an actual job outside of DDO
B. 10000 Spam Bots a day vs 1 dude
C. Your website doesn't care
D. Everyone fled the site

Spam bots over ran the place because he refused to do his job. If he couldn't do it he should have asked for help or said he couldn't.

He deleted as many as he could. He had to deal with thousands. Even with the while site working hard to delete posts (as was suggested), we would only be stuck in a deadlock, never able to post anything.

I have a job and only so much time to deal with spam. I had requested the site owners install a captcha system but they ignored my pleas. Sorry I let you down.

I don't give two craps about you or that site. But I am not going to listen to anyone make excuses for you when it was your fault. Many told you to require a log in to block bots and you did not. You are lazy and never moderated any post. Not post endorsing genocide. Post that were racists. Don't worry about my feelings cause I don't give a shit but I am not going to give anyone pass when the buck stops there.

How many separate times has it been explained to you that running debate.org was not his job? He was just an unpaid volunteer. Yet that does not fit into your world view, so you disregard it as fake news.

Yet you "don't give two craps about [him] or that site," therefore you shouldn't care enough to repeatedly complain about either one.

Nah. I know the dick showing up when so many asked is fake. But I can still say my piece. He was and is the reason the site failed.
