I have an idea. Let me know if you think this can work...
There is a standing requirement to have posting privileges in the Debate Forum, you must be a "Fighter."
In order to have that designation, you must participate in a debate.
Why would you want to post in the Debate Forum?
Answer....
Once you are designated a "Fighter"... you can arrange between you and any other "Fighter" to debate any of the listed (soon to come) DI Debate challenges... you can , between you, choose whichever side you wish to represent... OR as long as it is properly coordinated by DI staff, you can choose your own debate topics...
"Political topics" are acceptable. Such debates will be contained in the Debate Forum... so no one can troll either of you or spoil the debate, and you work can be seen by all members.
To reiterate, the entire list of topics is also fair game, and each debate topic can be 'revisited' assuming it is all coordinated properly.
However, your first debate here at DI will always be of the sort where you do not 'choose' which "side" you will be arguing. The debate topic will not be of your choosing unless it is from the list, and you will not be able to spontaneously choose a topic (except from the DI Debate Challenges List.)
That will be how you become a DI Fighter, free to debate at your leisure in the Debate Forum.
Well?... How does that strike you?
