Anyone want to help me with debate?

I know most of you probably have better things to do then help out a bad debater. So is there anyone here that doesn't have anything better to do? I was hoping some one could just debate a random topic with me, and help me spot errors that I might make. Today I just had a debate with a guy who claimed there were too many black people on the Maxtrix 2 which didn't turn out very good, epecially with the flames. Personally I don't think that's a win. Outflamming isn't as good as outwitting. So if anyone is interested please let me know. I could use all the help I can get. Thanks, hope I'm not asking too much and over extending my welcome here.

I'm going to bed very soon, and most likely by tomorrow this thread will have disappeared to the depth of this forum so if I'm not online just PM me. :)

Some people are just not worth debating.

Why bother, really? Debating someone with non-disgusting points is a better use of your time.

I did tell him those things, then the mod of the forum banned me, told me to fuck off, and let the jerk keep on posting.

I'm so sad...but anyways about the debating help, I could still use them. Granted it wasn't exactly a debate exactly, more like him calling me stupid and having all his friends, and of course his buddy mods support him. Argh. I hate racist, and now I know to avoid that forum. But my debating skills isn't that sharp, and I draw a dull blade many a time.

Ok if no one wants to help directly can you direct me to someone who can? or even a website would do. I've memorized the follices, but somehow I don't think its enough.

What forum was this? (don't link it)

Utopia/ but there's nothing to look. Its all gone. I have to admit I went purple in the face with rage. The guy's a racist, and everybody knew it. They were running around the board 2 years ago, and I just went back to check. Still racist running around, except this time they own the mods.

That's pretty fucked up.

As to honing up on debating skills, check out the list of fallacies stickied in SLAM, lurk in heated threads, keep your head down and learn.
There is usually an interesting debate going on here, if Creationism vs Evolution is your thang.
Or, start a thread with a controversial topic and see what you can do.

If that's so, there isn't much point debating there, since any logical argument you make will most likely be deleted and get you banned again.
