Originally posted by LatinLover First, no one has coward away from anything. Second, I was willing to stay for the debate. This leads to my next question, w.e happened to the thread you started? I dont know if you or Lira deleted it. But what happened in that thread is a prime example of the immaturity of my fellow members. They bombarded your thread and made it a Latin bashing festival. I'm sorry but I wont engage in a healthy and constructive debate when you have people interrupting it with that type of behavior.

What happened was you requested the thread to be deleted for the very reason I posted above. Those were YOUR words, and consequently Lira decided to delete the thread based on your request. I disagreed with his move to do so, and am willing to start up another thread anytime if you wish. There is, of course, no way to control anyone else posting there, and I specifically asked everyone to refrain from posting.

I suggest what you can do is simply ignore what others post there. You could maybe temporarily put them on your ignore list when they post in that thread, so you'll not see what they say at all. That combined with my request (and Lira's request I assume) for everyone to refrain from posting except you and I should suffice.

So despite you specifically stating that you were leaving TA, and despite the fact that it was supposedly THE reason why you didn't want to debate me and requested the thread to be deleted:

As much as I wanted to give you a debate the circumstances at the present moment obstruct from the plan to move foreward. For this matter, this is going to be my last post in TA.

I'm perfectly willing to try again with the suggestions I stated above and under any other compromises of rules you are willing to consider.

Deal?

Wow sorry for the delay, I had missed your post in this thread. Yes, I recall requesting to have your thread deleted due to disruptive behavior caused by your friends. But, I didnt know if you or Lira had deleted, is all I wanted to know.

You got to kidding if you think that Im going to play that game of putting people in my ignore list. If I were to do that, I'll add 85% of the members in here. Dont worry Opus, a debate with you has never been put off the table.

Okay, then how do you propose to have one then? Since there doesn't seem to be any viable means of crowd control in a thread between you and I, it seems we are at an impasse. I'm open to suggestions.
