@chambers, yep /r/bostonceltics is pretty pretty good. The debate quality here is better IMO (bcs we know each other better - Reddit is somehow impersonal) but on the other hand the reddit page gets updated extremely fast with news.
Reddit's format is also extraordinarily bad for any kind of reasonable discussion.
Agreed.
Yes, but on the contrary, you can downvote certain messages and they get buried below in the comments, letting the better comments on top. I find this idea very clever, I can feel the essence of each post by just reading the first few comments. No wasting time on reading useless comments or bad behavior people.
the process of upvoting and downvoting is exactly the problem.
I'm not a huge fan of the upvoting/downvoting because although I've never gotten down voted I don't get upvoted a ton and my stuff often gets pushed way down.
Trust me, comment often enough and the dreaded day you get lots of downvotes shall come.
I did it with //Biyombo > Koufos by a large margin// (I honestly hate his guts)

Getting lots of upvotes is even easier, especially if you comment in subs where ppl share the same beliefs (aka circlejerk subs); ie if you a conservative join a conservative sub and write conservative stuff, you ll soon enough get upvoted.
The thing that does get on my nerves a lot I must say is how people use anonymity over there. Reddit is the
par excellence place to say/do nasty things hidden behind a computer screen (they have this crazy obsession with 'free speech', which means you can say basically anything). This makes for a rather toxic atmosphere.
