• This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

Just an observation

Why is THE LOFT three quarters of the way DOWN the page?

I see your point, but all political topics belong above non-political sections for obvious reasons. Maybe it just needs a new name that makes sense for its location.
 
For me: There’s too few people by which to have a meaningful, long discussion on a given topic.

How many people do we need?

The real problem is having too many trolls. Every time a troll joins in, he/she dominates the thread because other members can't resist arguing with him/her directly. They get what they want: the most attention of any poster in that thread for all the wrong reasons. What we need is more people who refuse to give those people the attention they crave because nothing good debaters say will change a troll's mind. You will not get a meaningful discussion about any topic as long as people bite the hands that feed them.

I think the list should reflect the hierarchy. The Loft is at the top. The bulk of the debate is on the other floors, and the basement should be at the bottom where you put broken and disused things. Maybe we should have a garage or shop, too, for tinkering.
