Looks like a gauntlet has been thrown, unambiguously.I've smashed fucking skulls on this debate for over 10 years.
Any takers?

I'm just gonna clear those out.Is this the full list of agreed debates as of now?
1) Falsedawn vs Starman : "Institutional racism no longer exists in the United States."
2) JDragon vs JudoThrowFiasco: "The Iran Nuclear Treaty should be dissolved and remade"
3) m52nickerson vs Thursaz II: :Roe v Wade should be upheld
I think a death penalty debate could be pretty easy to set up. I'm also still hoping someone steps forward for a Us Intervention in Latin America/Communism & the Cold War debate.
@Stoic1 I'll put you down for a death penalty debate. Would you be arguing for or against?
Sweet! Alright, we can totally set that up. @Stoic1 are you in? We can make this official and get the ball rolling.Hey 'Limbo Pete', don't know if you are going to get any takers for the 'Latin America/Communism' debate, but I would be happy to debate @Stoic1 on the 'Death Penalty' debate. I'll take either side on either debate.
Sunday is better late than never, and this topic shouldn't require much refining. I think we should have a pm convo to find a point of disagreement, because one party is saying he could go either way.
I haven't gotten w/Limbo yet, hold yer stockings....well, looks like another topic that will not be debated. Let me know if things change. Things are slow again in 'The War Room'. @Limbo Pete, @Fawlty

He may not have checked the thread. I don't think he's in the WR every day.
I realize the time commitment for people can be rough (it's rougher for the people running it, so we get it), so it's okay that we seldom get a debate together. It's just not a popular format today.
I think the internet as a medium strongly encourages us to be lazy & gimme-now, and that's not even accounting for its use as a leisure activity, which is really the business of the person enjoying it. I think we're wrong to expect more than we get, but I'm in the same boat. I also shitpost a lot of one-liners in between quality posts, so I feel my pain.Agreed. Well, for me it is the best part of Sherdog, but than again, most of these guys (clowns) are too lazy to write a 5 line paragraph, read an article, or do research. Heck, the majority can't even use correct grammar and love to stick to acronyms. Some of which I don't even know what it stands for. Reading a book would be a monumental achievement for some. Than again, it is an MMA forum, rolling around on the mat comes first.
@Limbo Pete
We get paid in saltBoy, things in 'The War Room' and 'Mayberry Lounge' are slow. What a bunch of weak threads. Hey @Limbo Pete, are moderators on Sherdog paid?
Question for you @Fawlty. What do you think of these posters with women/girls in their avatar? Specially the provocative sexual ones. I just think it is stupid. I can get free porn on other sites any time of day. Are these guys in high school or not getting laid? Some of the more tamed mugshots look like female posters, but no. Thought about starting a thread on that topic but would probably get spanked into oblivion...
They haven't gone away. We're just waiting for something to crop up.Hey @Limbo Pete, things in 'The War Room', 'Mayberry Lounge', and 'Off-Topic Discussion' have been dreadful lately. Very poor posts. Have debates gone away for good or is there a chance things will start again? Try to get @V-2 involved. Bright guy. German. But he has been disappointed with Sherdog lately. He will probably outdebate anyone in the forum. He had some really good threads 'dumped', so he has kind of given up on the whole thing. He is very intellectual and few can actually keep up with his arguments. Nice guy.
Again, my best time here on Sherdog was when we were having the 'Civil War' debate. Nothing like a good topic to discuss with some really good, smart, decent people. Getting tired of the 'bitch slapping' that most of these threads turn into.

You and V-2 would be the best new poster debate match up I could think of.
Thanks. That would work. We just need a debate topic. I don't know that @V-2 will be coming back. I don't know if he has time for a debate. I've Cc him but gotten no reply. Maybe you and @Limbo Pete can persuade him to come back and get involved in a debate. I think he would be interested in any topic really. I don't know that he checks his messages on Sherdog any more.
