There are some few benefits to debating in the forums.

One is that any person can join, and they can pick out a fair fight(for example, the top debater versus two mediocre debaters). 
Two is that it is unending. We can debate about forever until the topic is settled.
Three is that there is no win or loss. It is basically a conversation.

I'm playing Devil's advocate.  If I bring up a topic, and there are like 15 posts on my notifications, I'm not responding to all that.

What arguments to you present that debating in the forums is inefficient(I won't ask you of why you believe that because you stated that you DON'T believe that)?

Then WHY are you playing devil's advocate?

I meant I was playing Devil's advocate on this forum.  On most forums, I state what I believe in for that moment.
