I'm gonna drop a little truth bomb and declare that what you're asking for is
near impossible. By "improve", you're probably meaning a drastic improve where everyone is friends and it's sunshine and rainbows. I've been here a decent amount of time and I think I can speculate that it's not happening, not in the increase everyone wants. Obviously we can and will improve, but it will be minimal. Maybe that one user
lol me that causes a ruckus and makes everyone upset leaves and the balance is restored temporarily. But that's mostly impossible. This forum, especially this thread as one of the most popular threads on the website, has a diverse cast of users. That said diverse cast is going to have obvious splits on ideologies but will mostly keep them hidden. If a single shed of that belief pops out, it will most time always cause some type of spark on differing ideals. Liberal VS Conservative ideologies if you will. There is no truly proper right or wrong side, nor is it wrong to be in favor in one of those sides, but this thread isn't built to withstand that type of conflict.
That's why the Debate Hall exists, but no one ****ing uses it enough. I would participate myself but there's almost nothing for me worth spitting my dime in, and most times than not I can guarantee you how these types of arguments go when you get really heated.
[argument a]
[argument b]
[snippit of argument b and claims of fallacy]
[snippit of argument a and claims of fallacy, hypocrisy, and adds mockery]
[screaming and insults]
[yelling and being mean]
Of course moderation isn't perfect, it never truly can be unless you make it an unethical 24/7 authority but I digress, this isn't about them. My point is, it's oddly convenient that we can manage to have an entirely heated debate for about half an hour before a mod even notices that there's something going on, isn't it? If only we could contain that steady argument into a thread in its own degree-
wait that's the Debate Hall it's almost like people forget it exists.
sorry for the long post and thanks for coming to my TED talk
