    Just want to reiterate though that the primary purpose here is to set an example by following this code in the Discussion and Debate forums as a whole, not just in a separate space. As I mentioned, we can definitely have a section for us to debate in the Curia if possible/desired, but the idea is you would be joining the 'House' as a 'member' and then adhering to the code. Apologies for the confusion, I'm not sure why it didn't occur to me that people would see House of Noble Discourse and initially think of a physical, separate space.

    That’s what I though you meant by ‘house.’ Though still wondering why have the physical house in the Curia. We have/had the symposium for the same thing, pretty much dead now.

    The fight club still hasn’t been repurposed (afaik). This seems a fitting way to transform that space, and have an open invitation for all members.

    We can definitely look into something like that if there's interest, but I didn't want to be too ambitious here, just to get a solid group together who shared the initial idea (voluntarily adhering to a higher standard of debate).

    Would it be necessary to move this vote to get a subforum in the Symposium?

    I imagine so, yes. I think you'll have to edit that into the OP and have support restated though; formalities and all.

    I would personally say, however, that perhaps it might be better to start small, with a thread or social group, and then request a subforum later if you need one.

    I like the idea of this, but I would also rather start it off as a group in the D&D and maybe later repurpose the Fight Club. Having it separately in the Symp would not be beneficial in my opinion, as that would not help the D&D and lock out quality debaters that do not want citizenship (think Himster for instance). As citizens we should improve the wider site, not just a secluded section of the Curia.

    True, we can stick with what's in the OP for now.

    I would support a subforum within the D&D section especially if your goal is to "recruit" non-citizens as well. Citizen being a part of it should be a given,...
