I use Brave Browser. The thing DebateArt.com said to use.The searching is way cleaner, the links layout perfectly and it's not so cluttered, I'm assuming you aren't a fan of IE.....Why aren't you.
Maybe cleaner.
Youtube is also waaaaay faster.
Nothing is wrong with using YouTube on the browser on I use.

:)I come from a deep, dark place, called debate.org, where all the druggies, all the thieves, and all the robbers hide. Let me tell you, bans are good. I personally do not want to see this site become DDO.

I can be both sides really given one specific problemo.

Big brain.
I think your idea would be the best because there would a section dedicated to moderator stuff. Removing pinned comments so that the most recent post is at the top not after the pinned comments.

PinkFreud was just banned "by request". There is no information as to why a respected member of the community has been banned
I spoke to him and yes he did say he did it if that was worth anything. Your point here is not substantial.
I'm not his biggest fan, but I certainly would like him on the site to keep things interesting. Dr. Franklin seems to get a temporary ban about every two weeks.
Interesting? Almost every comment he gives is a one word comment. He doesn't put in effort. He just wants to be #1 because he can't be #1 in debating.
This makes the site border line-objectively less enjoyable when people I enjoy talking to are removed from the site permanently or for over a week. It is also less enjoyable having to walk on egg shells when talking to people here.
It is also less enjoyable when you try to have a conversation but the other person doesn't even bother. This is definitely the case with Dr.Franklin. I value that more than different rules for different users.
I believe we need more transparency on why temporary bans occur, as well as information on either who requested a "ban by request" or at least some reasoning.
Guess transparency would be cool. Pink was banned by request. Dr.Franklin is bad. Beg bsh1.
Permanent bans should not be shrouded in mystery.
Not a single ban you spoke about was shrouded in mystery. Pink's ban is more of a request ban then it ever was a permanent. I am sure bsh1 can re-instate the account if Pink wants it but with other people permanently banned like I think Magic he can't do the same.
Did you even read this?
There is much more detail with permanent bans yet you still state there is mystery behind it.
Let me know your thoughts on how a reform to banning should look or why it should stay the same.
I only agree on transparency but even that I think the amount is given now should be enough to know what is allowed or not allowed on the site. Everything else I disagree with you.

We both know bsh1 won't do anything. I just hope in a rare case he would do something.Omar is threatening me with mod action for absolutely no reason.
Him and Ramshutu should both back the fuck off, instead of getting hardons from intimidating me and making me feel like shit.
I am only trying to mitigate you trying to make others "feel like shit" with your false statements. If that makes you "feel like shit" then stop spreading false information which can lead to others feeling like shit. I am not going to prioritize your selfish acts versus potential harm that can arise from what you have said.

Why add me here?

Firstly yes, or the realistic probability that such a harm could occur.
Realistic probability is more difficult then getting an emotional appeal to a topic. Given that most people including me react more to emotion than reason.
The second part - is basically why I’m stating the details of why he is so blatantly wrong.
I think bsh1 would do a better job but I don't think he would do it so...
The action should match the level of harm, and I don’t think it warrants any other actions. The personal impact of being wrong and knowing it is likely punishment enough.
How do you measure action and harm?
The personal impact only occurs if the person thinks they are wrong since we can't know that I hope whenever someone does state they are wrong and how bad they are feeling they are telling the truth. To even get to that you would have to specifically construct arguments in order to tailor a meaningful argument which makes them question and eventually lead them into thinking they are wrong. This of course is difficult because people value different things and when trying to make arguments it is almost impossible to beat some positions like I adopted this because my family did or conspiracy theory stuff. I'll take the Religion example. That person uses a false definition of evidence to make their worldview correct which can clearly be seen with Christians still defending that Jesus resurrection even though it is an absurd claim. This to RM would be simply backing up any claim he made. That bsh1 is bad, Ramshutu is bad etc.

@Ramshutu
For RM to be punished there must be a direct link to a person committing harm to another because of what he said. True?
The second part is that I think most people are not the best at stopping danger before it must be tackled head on. Basically people are not accustomed to prevent dangers and we need better tools to do that for us.

@Ramshutu
I am guessing we would have to see direct harm for something drastic to the anti-intellectual right?
Don't you think this is a broad problem where we commonly address the problem when we have no choice in the matter instead of committing to reasonable actions to avoid bad scenarios?

@Ramshutu
Why not bring this issue to bsh1?
You can only do so much but bsh1 can actually make a statement about this while also making sure people like RM who are not allowed to speak about topics which can lead to harm.
People like RM = Not qualified to use their platform helpfully as in prevent or keep harm at a minimum.

No actually.
Mainly my mind changing occurs away from the site seeing evidence.
I guess it would be better to add that into DA as well but it is not the same thing when a person is trying to be convincing whereas I can see the facts and interpret as I see fit.
I saw the facts and became a liberal. I saw arguments on DDO that came from Thoht and still didn't even change my mind even though I did respect him before I was a liberal. It was more than facts. It was something that I had a connection too. When I learnt someone found it is so easy to state how wrong it was I couldn't simply avoid the reality of what I didn't do which is even bother to know my own positions. I still am really lazy but I think I have the most important things down. I just can't bothered to talk about to a greater detail without it being something I really am interested it. Very specific topics are difficult to get me to care.
Hope this is good enough.

I wouldn't know what is funny until you break some sort of line like a 9/11 joke with it being stated in a funny way. A nuke is just not that funny something about Hiroshima would've been something but you shouldn't do that because bsh1 might get annoyed and make another MEEP about it.

@Ramshutu
Spends half the paragraph talking about your supposed bullying then doesn't even care to admit he was wrong. He is basically a white socialist expecting a socialist anytime soon instead it is some random guy who is expecting people to accept his knowledge even though it is wrong
Why continue talking?

A theist is the denial of God's non-existence.
My religion is love of The Truth. You know The Truth exists. Great. Love of The Truth is where the walk is.
Love = Truth = Ultimate Reality = God
Anything else? You have certainly added another one yet to still justify anything without appealing to the other side.

Doubtful. It would be in the ban log that Pink is using multi-accounting but he is not on the log.https://www.debateart.com/participants/Pinkfreud08 making an alt for lols and knowing next to nothing about browser fingerprinting or anything other than a Web Proxy. Even doubt he used a web proxy, tbph.
Ah, his recent post activity shows he was banned for spamming as the final straw and then decided to use an alt.
No real incentive for Pink to spam since he took a break.

Aw crap I thought you meant nuclear weapons. Slight misunderstanding.See, this is exactly why I am not an ambassador to one of our nuclear-armed rivals.
I would own nuclear weapons so that the defense of DA is better than the competition or on par.

@Discipulus_Didicit
More jobs are produced by the religion forum than there are people that live there.I am also concerned that there may be survivors of the nukes that may emigrate to the science and philosophy forums. In a worst case scenario many may even find a home in the politics forum.
Then I will nuke that. What I mean by nuke is remove users that can't stop being cancer and flooding negativity.

Was used to state you overestimate your abilities.Dunning Kruger effect would imply that I think I should be number 1 on leaderboards as is. I don't.
I would said you think are number 1 on leaderboards if I meant that.
I know that voting and corruption in voting (ability to vote against rivals while mitigating their capacity to vote back against you and much else) are all elements of the game.
Corruption in voting do tell. All I see is what voting is and what occurs.
Ramshutu didn't outsmart me though, while he is definitely intelligent more so than most humans, he isn't on my level.
How is he not on your level? You have already stated he is more intelligent than you what standard are you using to state, you are better?
Instead, what happened was he thinks more like the common human and moderator, such that he manipulated the norms of enforcement far better than I did by pure instinct.
Such a weird of looking at it and I don't see how this perspective is even useful.
In time I have caught up and now understand debating on this website more than he does, in fact, and in time my winrate will show it to be true.
If you didn't know how to be the best then must did the bare minimum of research. Simply look at the number 1 (orogami) and see what he did. It is that simple yet here you make it seem like it is more complicated.

1st part is about I think some people who forgot what they value. Mainly virtue which I don't care about.
2nd part is that sore losers.
3rd part is something about the game and they should play it if they want more out of life.
What is the game and is my summary correct?

Such an ego. You really over-estimate yourself to compensate your incomptence. The start of the dunning Kruger effect is what you suffer from.
I guess your blocking is also a sign that you can't take criticism. Instead of actually making a good argument you resort to blocking as a means to stop people notifying their responses. With me you don't know what a substantial point is. With Ram you think he hates you. On top of your absurd beliefs of the illuminati while also your irrational view of bsh1.

This proposal shall stop 100% of Religion forums and would drastically increase the happiness of its users.
This is also good for public relations because without the Religion forum 100% of Religion forum related bad publicity will be gone.

I think the next laptop (preferably computer) you should do more research. Have a budget and see what you can buy. See reddit pages as well like thisI like playing my FPS games on my computer since i like a big screen
I haven't personally read it because I don't really want to spend the money but when I do, this is the first thing I will look at to understand things then move along from there.

"Good for Casual Gaming on Low Settings"

Why didn't the graphics card help that I gave not work?
If i did play games on it i would play League or hearthstone.
How many cores in the processor? You missed that.
I did some digging given that the best site I use to see if my game would work or not in 3 different areas doesn't have your graphics card. Your graphics card does exist but given the site is lacking your graphics card it wouldn't be helpful. You can use it to test out the Intel UHD Graphics 630 but I don't think it is a fair comparison.
Here is the site I used to check if my games would work well:
Here is what to look for in a CPU (processor):
"The graphics card's hardware directly affects its speed. These are the hardware specifications that most affect the card's speed and the units in which they are measured:
- GPU clock speed (MHz)
- Size of the memory bus (bits)
- Amount of available memory (MB)
- Memory clock rate (MHz)
- Memory bandwidth (GB/s)
- RAMDAC speed (MHz)"
Given that the numbers are not the same with either by looking at these two links:
It is best to use I think a worse option which is this https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri.
The results are less accurate and always for me to state to update even when I am up-to-date. It also tells you to download their .exe (application or app) which doesn't have ads or anything but the one I use simply shows the results on the screen without the need of a download.
Given that both HearthStone and LOL are not that too demanding games I doubt you would have problems running it.
With this I say if you specifically bought the laptop to play these two games optimally I think you overspent but given that isn't your reason it doesn't really matter. I have done this for naught. I am annoyed. Goodbye.

As to games, i don't expect to use it for games. It's only going to be my editing and/or music computer in the future. For now, it's just my travel computer and sometimes when i feel like kicking back on my bed computer.Your directions helped with exception to the graphics card. Had to look up the graphics card somewhere else that i googled how to do.
Guess I can't really say it is useful or not.
