I dont know if there is a cap limit on this site but should F&A put a limit on the amount of debate topics you can post in a period of time.

Absolutely, I asked the same question a year ago. There are far too many people who are posting debates simply for points, not because they make any sense.

Am I the only person who see's the irony of you posting 3 debates immediately before this one?

If it were possible to limit how many debates new users and users who are clearly posting debates with little substance to bump up their points or to make a point at another's expense, that would be a wonderful addition to the site. I find it very difficult to complain about the lack of such moderation though. The site is free and, for the most part, I think that it is rairly easy to distinguish between a serious debate and one that is just a kid messing around. Worse, sometimes it is from quick change friend....not naming any names, but take a stab in the dark....and even when the debate is substantial, the actual debate is skewed by the fact that numerous avatars for only one user are altering the vote. I personally did not join to win debates. I like to learn, use my writing skills and view things through other's eyes. It is a good site for that and I do enjoy the debating....that should be a given.

Although I do totally agree with you, I think that demanding too much from a free site could end up causing the site to require either a fee or a donation. The useless and childish debaes are annoying, but at least I'm not paying to sift through them.

Perhaps new members should have some kind of limit, and once they show they are serious, they get more power. You're one to talk, anyways.
