Something needs to be done about vote bombs

This website can be a lot of fun. Sure things can get heated and that's why there are points that can be lost or awarded based on rudeness. There are people, however (mostly teens) that think they are justified to be vigilantes and administer their own form of point awards with the use of vote bombs. This results in more vote bombs and votes that result trying to counter-act the vote bombs. Ultimately, this results in the entire voting system becoming useless. I would suggest a blocking m...

Resolved: In the United States, the principle of jury nullification is a just check on government. Imabench is the pro for this debate, which is part of the DDO Official Tournament. Imabench must present his case in the first round, but may not present any arguments in the final round in order to maintain round balance. Imabench also must present definitions in the first round, but I reserve the right to challenge them in my first speech, which will be presented in the second round. Rules 1...
