Just thought I'd make a thread for you to rank the debators here on TN, discuss what people could improve, why you think certain people are superior debators and all that shiz. So pretty much just make a list of all of TN's current active debators and rank them according to who you think is best debator overall. Try include everyone, even if you haven't personally debated with them. And try to remain friendly and all - no flaming etc etc etc.

Format:
1. Roger - (why you chose them, what makes them good, improvements? etc.)
2. George - (why you chose them, what makes them good, improvements? etc.)
3. That guy - (why you chose them, what makes them good, improvements? etc.)
4. Harry Potter - (why you chose them, what makes them good, improvements? etc.)
5. n00b - (why you chose them, what makes them good, improvements? etc.)
6. Mr Cool - (why you chose them, what makes them good, improvements? etc.)

(Anything additional you want to add)

Obviously your list will include more than 6 people, but you get the jist of it.
& you don't have to use that format or w/e, it was just an example. ONE, TWO, THREE, GO!

Let's do this.

*. WhiteFang.

+The most notable debater on TN so far, according to my opinion.
+Even when she's daily facing & cracking her opponents, she's still humble towards them. A huge plus.
+No flaws according to what I've read, as I don't agree with the "walls of text"-issue here.


*. "Battledome Majin".

+Aggressive.
-Somewhat hot-headed.
+Informative.
+/-Tend to get unnecessarily technical time to time.
+Referring to movies/quotes/literature/actors/etc to put forth a specific/certain point.
-There are times it feels like he's jumping to conclusions regarding a certain post(s) without analyzing it/them or the debaters/opponents intentions first.

*. 0ba.

+Usually very calm and levelheaded. (in a very scary way. Just like Adam. xD)
+Amazingly enough able to question his opponents views before coming to a conclusion.
+He's occasionally using smileys to express his points in various debates. Usually ":confused:" which is rather lovable. In other words, it's easier for the readers to analyze his mood within a debate and read his posts than most debaters here in TN. =3

-------

Mere opinions from an outsider, embrace them or trash them. :lol: I think I'll do the others later.

Thanks!

But I refuse to be picked ahead of the likes of Adam or DIY.

No wait.

I > dem. xD

And btw, that +/- applies to Fang too. I think it applies to her more than Matt. But it's more of a positive though. Fang gives us physics AND biology lessons on TN. :xd:

'Kay boys, my turn. =]

(in no particular order because I don't think I can "rank" debaters)

* D.I.Y Death

+ is concise, to the point and has well rounded posts.
+ doesn't hesitate to speak his mind.
+ is reasonable and logical.

- can get a little too aggressive.
- often resorts to sarcastic and/or subtle insults. (though I must admit, they add spice to so many things)

* Jackums

+ has elaborate, informative posts, thinks through his points.
+ has the extremely rare and wonderful quality of conceding some points sometimes. Very nice indeed.
+ keeps his head cool, doesn't enter into or resort to petty arguments and insults.

- can be a bit stubborn at times.

* 0ba

+ extremely impartial. Unbiased. His judgment is never clouded.
+ easy to negotiate with, making debates much more fruitful in terms of conclusions.
+ doesn't ride bandwagons, holds his own, even if alone. Doesn't complain.
+ is very civil. Has a sense of humor.

- does too much reverse questioning sometimes. Lol.
- worships Konohamaru. Yes, that is a -ve for me, nii-san. :p Kono phails. =P

Sometimes some people really confuse me. xD

I do like negotiating. I don't like debates that go on forever. Especially if I feel the person I'm debating with is being unreasonable. xD
I try not to complain, and I try to keep it as friendly as possible now. And my humor? I'm glad I don't make only myself laugh. :lol:

And the reverse questioning? I noticed it. And started turning them into statements instead of questions recently. Perhaps I still do it. Maybe it's just part of me. xD

And how DARE you insult Konohama-sama???!!!

TAKE IT BACK NOW! >:[
