Interesting, I have the same. Thanks.
Wait so you like it more than DDO?

If I switch to the words, I think all those buttons won't fit there. But I completely agree with you on this one, letters would be definitely better, I will check it again.
Finally something I can have.
We had a long forum discussion on this one somewhere, it's not that simple :(
Tell them you are wrong I am right done. 
Well, hopefully 1 year will be enough to finish all the basic things and maybe after that I'll get to implementing some nice customisation stuff.
Hey that isn't that bad. Can't you ask bsh1 and Virtuoso for help?
DA? Bitch, please! It's DarC and you know it, <3.
Acronyms are not lowercase dumb dumb. DA is debateart. DAC doesn't look as good so DA is the best. DART is too long and yours is one character less. I am saving characters with my innovation you are making people illiterate.

Acronyms or shortened nickname? Who the fuck are you to come here and tell us about how to call our website?

You think Google is wrong to have goo.gl as its shortened name? You think that when people call Democrats Dems, even those who support the party, that they need to call them Ds? xD

DAC doesn't sound as good as DA? DarC looks AND sounds better than both.

the ability to read and write.

By you using English in the false way you have now opened up the door for gullible or ignorant people to think you are correct when it comes to acronyms.

Debates: 
Allow different size for fonts. To keep simple, maybe start with body, subtitle, and title sizes. Then in the future allow for size 6 up to size 96 or something similar.
Different fonts would be good too

@Human
If possible please create some kind of thread with the 'thread topic size' thing and ask for others' opinions. The mods or I can do it on your behalf if you want but a change like that won't happen until there's enough consensus, your other suggestions are very helpful though, thanks.

Can you try one more time please? I think it happened because I was pushing the new update and the server goes offline for around 2 minutes when I do that.

Can you add a feature where I can save a debate so that I can pick up on it on a later date in order to complete and create it?

Google Docs is a fantastic free alternative to that if you want a temporary solution that works on all devices.

When you paste back from the Google Doc, paste as plain text (involves right-clicking or ctrl+shift+v for Windows and something like that for Mac etc).

You can't paste with formatting for a large amount of text, it severely snowballs the characters beyond what you're using.

502 bad gateway happening every so often. 
My connection has slown down as well. Is this common because this is the first I am getting bad connection?
It takes a while to get to a different page and post what I want.

cloudfare also comes up if that is what you want to know.

Where are the servers or wherever this website is located?

One of the feature requests, at the moment.

When was the last time it happened? It usually happens only when I restart my server and it shouldn't take longer than 2-3 mins and I didn't release anything yesterday or today.

It's happening right now a lot. opening forums to a specific post is a guaranteed trigger that requires a refresh.

It's not this website, something severe is happening to cloudflare-related websites this happened a couple weeks back too.

I am still recieving slow-down when I type you in as a reciever (normally your name comes up almost instantly but now I have to wait a couple of seconds and this happens when I post posts) but the 502 bad gateway is non-existent. So the problem is not as bad as before since all I am getting are slow-downs.
When was the last time it happened? It usually happens only when I restart my server and it shouldn't take longer than 2-3 mins and I didn't release anything yesterday or today.
Mine happened when I was watching something but I always do that when I am on DA so I don't think that is the problem. Must be something wrong with cloudfare because when I checked my Task Manager nothing out of the ordinary pops up. I blame cloudfare.

I might be lying about what is on my Task Manager. Normally my memory is at an 80% but when I check when it slows down it reaches the 90 so I think that is the problem of my slow-down. So basically I think I have a fix for both. Simply end system32 (joke).
