The main issue is the shoddy VsBattles scaling in all of these tbh
No citations mostly
The Pokemon debate especially showcased a lack of substance to what you were talking about, which against SFW is a accomplishment
The formatting is at least solid, but the context needs lots of proper revision. I'd also say the current trend of making basically a million different sections with a million different feats isn't really needed for a CaV, it just feels like a RT more or less and a intro post should never read like that.
@professorrespect: Appreciate it man. Can you elaborate on what you say is the biggest issue? I don’t quite get what “shoddy Vsbattle scaling” means.
Vsbattle scaling is basically just chaining feats to each other in a quantitative manner (as much as possible with as light criteria as possible) in a way that ignores conflicting views that suggest otherwise. Your stuff isn't as bad given you seem to have some idea of awareness of what isn't quantifiable but still needs good work etc
the biggest issue is that even though it's gotten more popular with the immigration of Vsbattles logic onto the site
mainly experience in debates, that's what I had in mind when I created this topic, but I guess anyone can do it there's nothing against it, it's just better if the rating comes from someone experienced, we used to have HoF members back in the day, but as time goes by we kind of went apart, I'm back though.
I think i'm more mean then anything but that's a self evaluation i'm not ready to accept yet.
I begin my review by pointing out that I have only read the individual debates. I didn't read the "open" debates because, in my opinion, it goes beyond the proposal (at least what I had imagined when I created the topic). Therefore, I believe you are on the right path, even more considering that the CaV I read was your first, is that it?
A constructive criticism would be to moderate the use of images during the debate, not that they are not important, I would even say fundamental, but they cannot represent more than the argumentative text itself. I advise using links to reinforce the argument instead of posting entire images. I myself went through this and I can say that my debate improved a lot after I followed this line, it is much easier even for those who will read and vote for the fight.

Fair enough. I'll it to heart and consider it in the future.

Can anyone please look at my past debates give me some advice on what I could do better as a debater? I personally don’t care for the ratings, but would appreciate constructive criticism that could help me to be a better debater.
