So, there has been a few debates that I have been in where I have had a case ready and the person forfeits, ending the debate. My research completely evaperates as the debate ends without me having done anything.

lannan13: Yeah, it is annoying.

What can we do about it?

admin: I'm not sure. There's things were it's "Forfeiting results in auto-loss" prehaps allowing the opposition to post so that they may actually post their arguments.

Integrate a shaming badge system.

You know the blue, green, red, and yellow badges, right? Well, have another "badge of honor" for forfeiting debates.

It can at least be experimented with for a few months to see how it goes.

I recommend the color black.
