Guide to Civil Debate and Discussion This being an Ace Attorney fansite, it’s pretty easy to picture yourself as Phoenix Wright or Miles Edgeworth when arguing over something with another user. The problem is that you’re not. The person you’re talking to is a real human being with real feelings, and the kinds of put-downs used in the games can really hurt if you use them against a real person. This kind of behavior is unacceptable here. Let’s consider the following situation: You’re discussing the object in the spoiler box below with another user. The two of you disagree on what to call it. Approaching the matter improperly can easily lead to hurt feelings (and possibly a ban). The goal of this guide is to help teach you how to keep your debate from ending in such a manner. Spoiler: Which is it?
Bottom line: we’re not a Yahoo! or YouTube comments section. Play nice and be cool. |

I'm glad you actually put this up. I love a great argument with civil debates and discussions, but it's when guidelines like this aren't followed that irks me. I understand disagreeing sides, failing to agree with others, but people forget to be civil because they must always be in the right. I don't get into as many discussions as I used to because it seems that more and more, the ethics of a good debate just aren't followed anymore. Finding someone respectable to argue with now is so very far and between. Again, thanks for bringing this to attention. As crazy as the internet is, we need to be reminded of this at times. |

This may be awfully nosy, but I wonder if something specific happened for this guide to suddenly be written. |

Nurio wrote: This may be awfully nosy, but I wonder if something specific happened for this guide to suddenly be written. Short answer: No. Long answer: Noooooooooooooooo. But if you're wanting a more helpful response, the staff drafted it simply because we were already going through the rules to re-write them and the suggestion was made that now would be the best time to make a guide to debating. On that note, I'd like to remind everyone that there are certain topics that were not created for adversarial debating. Those are generally any kind of character or pairing 'fan club' topics. If you don't like that character or pairing, it would be best to stay away from that topic. There's already topics out there where you can debate the merits or demerits to your hearts content, so let them have their super positive love-in. |

*snickers* As if everyone here will read or skim through it. Only a few or some will do, but the rest will just practically ignore it. |
