I’m not sure I understand why you are asking FReepers to start a new forum...can’t you do what you want to do here?
This technology, layout, and platform absolutely does NOT lend itself to debate at all. It it designed to facilitate the mass postings of new links and articles, shoving the old into obscurity.
Good debate requires specific structure, moderation, and the proper interface.
FR dislikes “vanity” posts; only copies/links of other articles is welcome.
