I don't want to argue or debate with people, but a system or a tool for collecting and quickly accessing references sounds nice.
The only thing on my mind that sounds possibly anything maybe slightly debate-y is trying to explain or communicate, eventually, if at all, my position about certain things, particularly what I am referring to with words like "God" and explaining all the reasons I don't think of it as a truly divided multiplicity in the same fashion as one might think of different people who are all people but individual and unaware of the internal state of each other, which they also have no sense of accessing or controlling. That was from your comment about "Being" in "Vlaathik".
If the system attracts people as a feature that would make them want to use this site to practice debates, that might be fine also.
I would have to see the system to think of ways in which I might use it, since it is hard for me to imagine how I might use anything when I barely engage with anyone anyway.
Some places I took on a debate-y tone were the threads about S*x Tr*fficking and Spiritual Imperialism, as well as the "Immigrants Drain Resources" thread, but not really, since I've taken to the blurting out opinions thing that everyone seems to be doing anyway, and then bringing up other people most likely blurting out opinions as further bolstering of my points or other information which seems to merely say something I said, sometimes only almost at the very best, and not really, most likely, even at all, but which I'm showcasing for a point or a reason.
Maybe you could detail what you have in mind, otherwise if it isn't a prolonged hassle to bring it about, then we can just enjoy more of the fruits of your labor.
If it is really time consuming though, perhaps it might mot be worthwhile at this time.
Currently I'm the main person seemingly using this website at all at this early stage, and though I could likely take on various arguments and debates and have maybe even been wanting any sort of interaction potentially, you could even read through the threads and write more and bring life to various old threads also instead of being busy and a bit away, necessarily, while working on this addition. All these sorts of features do impress me quite a bit and make this website seem to be of a high production value in comparison to many others.
Maybe A.I. bots can read and respond to threads and articles with their responses hidden and which can be expanded, or an A.I. chat bot box in the corner which can be used for quick information gathering and requests to read things.
There could be a chat window in the corner that pops up when people are looking at out threads and posts, where we can contact them and ask them if they have any questions or may like to discuss anything as they are reading.
There could also be some easy footnotes thing, where I could put my references, and it leaves a footnote thing that people can click and then see all kinds of references, including video links and text links, but it might make copy pasting difficult for me, so that I might maintain the current style a lot of the time to make copy pasting easier.
I'm eager for anything on the sites that I could mention while promoting them or bragging about them, though I've already seemingly exhausted mentioning it to the numerous unwilling people who barely even talk to me anymore, so I don't really know the scenario where I might use the fact to promote this site to anyone, but all these features so far impress me a lot and I feel proud to be here and to know someone so capable of making things like what you've made so far and this feature, I certainly wouldn't want to discourage it as it seems really good, also good practice and something good to promote about skills too if you were ever to be hired for anything to do with coding.
I don't know if you want A.I. tools integrated on the site, but there could be some kind of tool that one can turn on and then highlight a word while it is on and it tells a person about the term, or highlight a sentence or a paragraph and it tries to explain it in a scrolling text side box, and lets a person save the text and give it a title so that they can refer back to it or look through their log of notes and explanations.
As much as I bring up games and fiction, I've barely directly played games or read fiction, but there could be a tool that accesses places like gutenberg and sacred texts and whatever else has free texts and draws out all the writing and then figures out the quotes or references or whatever is similar. I am just dreaming, I don't know how easy these things would be, like maybe they would be crazy difficult to put together, in which case it isn't anything to worry about, but I have seen how skilled you are with these things, so I'll share with you some other fantasies, even if they are an overestimation of your abilities, but I don't think so, and that should be a compliment anyway, whether it is an accurate assessment or not.
You could make something connected to this site which game-ifies it quite a bit, but in the tradition of and with the impression and faux design of old games, particularly old fantasy and science fiction type games.
What I'm imagining is something where A.I. has been given instructions to produce things and generate things based on the text in a thread that still conforms to a certain aesthetic, where one can choose to navigate the site as if it is a game map, I'm currently imagining crude, thin, single line art of various colors and limited detail with an all black background that is navigated through a map for main areas and then each thread is a location, and the text in the thread is presented by a character, and responses by another character, and the text can type out in the old way that it used to or be skipped ahead, otherwise scrolling with minimum animation or no animation, then a person can navigate out and go to another area lol, its a silly idea, and I might not even want it to exist, but I thought it might be fun and funny, at least to imagine. I already view this site in that way sort of, with each of my threads in particular being like a location. The Lolth thread is "The Underdark" and a cavernous underground. Hruggek is outside of and inside of Hruggek's cave maybe, otherwise an incident where people are ambushed by a band of bugbears or happen upon some while they don't notice, and whatever is being discussed is discussed in that thread.
Old School Dungeons and Dragons or similar things, could likely be implemented as a game, besides chess and checkers and whatever else as games available and which could somehow integrate topics and subject matter from posts lol, I don't need drugs to come up with silly stuff like this.
It is embarassing to even imagine such an idea being worked on, it would make me feel so ashamed that it would be funny.
I could find a thread of mine from the past and dedicate it to debating and debates, and then if there is anyone to debate anything, the debate tools could help, and it could be used for practicing too.
I just can't even imagine a world where debate does anything anymore anyway except perhaps advertising ideas to people who jad never even heard of the things being presented. I don't like the idea of even giving an opportunity to speak to some of these people, as totally depraved criminality seems to be becoming the mainstream and harah but likely necessary measures are decried as criminality now, in bizarro world.
My solution for everything is just something that can't even be said, besides it never probably happening because it won't be possible.
I think roughly, everyone on this site and likely to come on this site because of knowing us or being attracted to anything on here is going to share similar views which only differ in some slight ways. I take on extreme positions sometimes just to see if anything might get brought up, but my real positions are much more mainstream, mild, and uncontroversial.
Most likely, among people expected to join, if ever, I'd probably be the most "straight edge" and "conservative", due to being very "white bread" and non-radical about everything, including my own behaviors and habits in life, and that I'm against so many things that are promoted as more acceptable than they had been before, such as "s*x work", "dr*g use", "p*ly*m*ry", whatever else, besides believing in governments, my ideas about things are likely to be what some caricature of an ordinary person from the past, but probably even today, most likely thinks about everything.
I'd expect that people eventually joining would likely be a little more libertine about things, but perhaps not, but I also don't deeply care about any of these issues, except being pressured to not voice how distasteful I find so much to be these days in the new cultures and counter cultures to those being promoted through heavy funding by the fake "left/right" game which has totally alienated me and most likely many more people, but I was probably alienated already from a much earlier stage, and now more people are entering the space of just being angry and depressed and wanting it to all go away and shut up, which makes debating of not that much interest either in a very hostile seeming internet environment of extreme positions and constant argumentativeness.
It is hard to imagine even encountering someone with a different point of view that I wouldn't just dismiss as perverse or insane. I could never accept even being in the presence of or looking upon or sharing any time or information or space or air with someone who thinks some of the things going on are fine and dandy and cheers them on, and those people are so anathema to me that I feel that once they have been identified, a true psychopathic criminal deviant has been identified, and there is nothing to say to a person with a heart so diseased, they only deserve one thing as soon as possible, and being talked to isn't it.
Why I'm bringing this up is that I'm wondering what I would be interested in debating. I could take any position and debate anything, just as an intellectual exercise, and I could collect lots of factoids and evidence, but why and for who really? It seems like those days are long gone and hard to imagine.
So I use my threads and writing as "meditations" to bring up thought provoking things and even real occurrences around here which seem like "affirmations", but mainly say and do very little overall since it seems like I live in an empty world with nothing and no one around, and no interest in getting other people to be or do much anymore, so its all just me stimulating myself a little just for that reason or to stay awake or do something, like doodling maybe and going woah, cool, weird, I like it.
I wouldn't even care if exploiting human bodies and procreative acts for money was somehow a wonderful practice, I'm closed minded, so would only like this debate tool for other purposes most likely, other ways in which I might be able to use it or collect information for review, but I'd also not want to encourage you to do anything that takes a lot of time and effort that I and maybe others might not use or benefit from, even though I like all these things so far that you've been doing, making, and making available, they are at the very least impressive to me.
