Debate.org should have a message system so members can communicate more efficiently.

The following rebuttal will contain a respectfully brief, yet concise, overview of the critical arguments that have occurred during this debate. The first point simply boils down to this: I don't believe that the message system should exist, call it implying correctness or whatever, BUT, I have justifications for my opinion, therefore I am not ignorant in my position. Furthermore, I do not think that this point should've made as much of a deal as it has thus far. Therefore, I'd like for you to disregard any arguments that have occurred in regards to this first point, they are nonsense, to say the least. I think Olhando would agree. _________________________ In his second point, I am argue the very fact that his message system would enhance the amount of cheating that occurs on this site. We both agree that this has already occurred, but my opponent never truly asserts the negative impact that would occur in regards to the enhancement of cheating. My opponent's "cut back" assertion is a stretch, we understand that with his plan you will be allowed the right to delete the 'slanderous' comments on your page, but that doesn't mean it is now easier to detect cheating. A rather incoherent argument if I may. My opponent also states that he could easily create twenty accounts to receive a similar effect of cheating, but imagine how much more practical it would be for, instead of YOU doing all of the work, you could find three other people and everyone make five account. Arguably, the latter requires much less effort, with the same outcome. THUS, cheating WILL be enhanced. My opponent even goes so far as stating that cheating ISN'T cheating if you don't get caught! I ask him to reconsider his position if this is his main justification for his advocacy. Hopefully you will vote CON, as a vote for PRO would be an unethical movement. _________________________ The third point is essentially an argument regarding the fact that my opponent's purposed plan would implement a "delete button". The same that has been said about his first point can be said about this point as well. Meaning, the PURPOSE of this point is to describe how the message system will be. Basically, "it will allow for comments on the user's personal page, and it will offer you the ability to delete slanderous remarks". I simply argue that this message system shouldn't occur, THUS if I prove the message system shouldn't be implemented, then everything else that is included with the system should not occur either. You should vote CON, because this point is regarding the details of a system that should not be implemented. _________________________ The third point is in regards to how more features would equal more fun. My opponent associates this debate site to a social "place for friends". This is clearly incoherent, the intention of this site is to debate. Nothing more. The debating aspect of this site THE fun. If people are dissatisfied with debating, they could easily create a myspace or a facebook account. If my opponent were concerned with, "making the site more dynamic", he could've focused on adding HTML features on the site. (e.g. A way to add bullets, different sized fonts, different styled fonts , etc.) This would clearly enhance the DEBATING aspect of this site, not just the communicating part. You should vote CON, because I have properly refuted my opponent's analogies. _________________________ For these reasons, and the reasons previously mentioned, you should vote CON, because I have given you more than enough reasons for as to way you should not accept Olhando's messaging system. - A slippery slope, turning debate.org into a mini-myspace. - Significantly enhances cheating. - and It would not solve issues like slander, which it promises to solve. GOAL ACCOMPLISHED:: This debate will hopefully allow others to think of new plans, with the consideration of my critique. I URGE you, the voter, to consider new ways to make this site a better place. Message THAT to the admin, NOT Olhando's plan. Vote CON. Thank you Olhando and voters, -Protagoras of Abdera
