Hey guys, can you please give me a feedback about this debate when it's finished, particularly about the pain points of being a judge and what should be improved in that regard.
There was a bug in the auth system, now it's fixed and the debate should work as expected. Please let me know if you find something else. And sorry for the troubles.
This website, under its simple and boring UI is actually quite complex and there is a lot of rules and checks all over the place, and sometimes things don’t work as intended. But I try to fix the bugs asap, on other sites it can take literally months. And that’s why I released it early in the first place, to fix the bugs as quickly as possible
I think I misunderstood the idea coz I just quickly read about it on the go, I will properly dive into it and we can discuss it later, sorry for the confusion.
From the technical point of view, it's not a problem to bump the character limit but is it really necessary? If it often that somebody actually reaches this limit?
Do you know how many other simple and not so much inconveniences have been resolved during all this time? But I guess you haven't taken those into consideration, you just found one issue to complain about and without properly bringing it to attention, decided to call people lazy.
I didn't mean that it was a fancy feature, what I was trying to point out is that we have lots of issues, small and big and they take time to resolve considering that it's a hobby project and we don't have a team of devs here. And before something is resolved, it has to be brought to attention first and quite often discussed with the community, which hasn't been done. And frankly, before you "call things as you see them", you gotta analyze the context, question your judgement and think carefully about what you are going to say, that will help you in life.
Also on debate.org people "enjoyed" lots of advertisements that, apparently, generated enough profits for the company to hire developers that could speed up the development process and implement some fancy features. All the income we have here is 16$ which is less than I spend on the hosting, so the development is not exactly fast, as I hope you can imagine. And also it's first time I hear about this issue, so nobody brought it up on the forum, and you didn't do that either, even though the "Platform development" is the easiest topic to find on the forum, so don't tell me about lazyness.
The_bat_man, please, provide a reasonable explanation for the votes, because as Tejretics mentioned, you have an obligation to the participants to explain why you judged the debate in the way you did.
Fair point, let's ask the_bat_man if he'd be willing to add a proper explanation for the vote ( which I'd have to manually add to his vote ) before we revoke it.
Just wanted to point out that instigator publishes his or her argument only when the opponent has been found. And the first argument always belongs to the instigator and the instigator always has a pro position.
Added a tag
Hahaha, I don't know why your comment cracked me up
Added "Math" tag

Gotcha, I will review that whole logic, I guess I messed it up a bit, thanks!

Could be a bug, I’m sorry, I will look into it tomorrow
I really like the subject of this debate, I'll be quite interested in reading the arguments :)
That's easy enough, will do

It's not a problem to implement it and I will
Wow, I imagine you did a lot of typing haha
Sorry mate :/

I will soon
That's a very interesting debate, thanks guys for bringing it up :)
The like button will be back, don't worry
Yeah, I'd like to believe that we still have some good debates here :)
Six months? Wishful thinking lol
We barely have any new debates these days :/
Oh yeah, that they have...
You can try again when we have 3000 haha
Wooooooooooooo, that's amazing news!
I am afraid it's way simpler haha
We have a new team member that finds the best content and publishes it in the social networks :)
I am not sure I follow, what do you mean? What formula? ^_^

I'm afraid not, but that's an issue, I will hide the rating mode setting for the debates with the judges
Breathtaking debate.
↓ Same for you guys, I'd really appreciate it ^_^
Hey, glad to see that you managed to create a judged debate :)
They are not that well tested so if you notice any weird behaviour, please let me know :)
One correction though, I think you mistyped the month for the site's opening, it started in August, not April, so it's barely 3 months old :)
Both votes have been deleted.

What's wrong with the bat_man's vote? Sorry if I am missing something here.
