ARGUING
it's all about the truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Have you ever gotten in an argument and knew were right from the start?
Or argued with someone really convincing and lost when you knew you shouldn't have?
If so...

THEN THIS SITE IS FOR YOU. (http://aftt.heliohost.org/)

So how does it work?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯


• after making an account (free), you can create "arguments"


• arguments on this site have a claim and a score



• the claim is what you're trying to prove, and the score says how valid it is


• you can add points to prove or refute the claim

Here's the cool part:
the points themselves are arguments!

__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________


What does that even mean?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯


• if you disagree with someone else's point, you can argue about it on its own page


• that page has points too, so the same thing applies


• there's no limit to how long this can go on

Think Inception.
arguments within arguments within arguments

Why's that useful?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯


• not only does it let you see DEFINITIVELY who is more correct


• but it also shows you WHY there's a disagreement in the first place


• by reducing the argument to smaller and smaller points, you can find the core disagreement and resolve the issue

There's no winner because everybody wins.
Everybody gets the truth.

What's the future like?
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
I listen to every ounce of feedback I get so go on and give!
I have a ton of ideas for the site,
so expect changes every day.

But there's one problem...
I need your help.

I need you to help me spread the word so more people can use the site!
Let's change the way people think about arguing.
Let's get them to argue for the truth (http://aftt.heliohost.org).

Was sounding good until:
a) I saw the stupid .heliohost domain
b) I saw the terrible layout

I don't have any money so I can't register a domain yet (working on it) and I'm trying to find someone to do the front end for me since I hate web design. With the way things are working now making the pages look as pretty as I can takes longer than writing the actual code... What changes to the layout would you suggest? Current one was inspired by this free template I saw and liked.

Make it simple and center aligned rather than being all big and on the page. Simplicity is better than massive complexion with an idea this simple.

It is center aligned and on my screen it's small unless I zoom in. What's your monitor size? I guess I didn't account for that.

I originally didn't want to bother with a co.cc domain since .heliohost.org looks more professional to me, but people like it better.

my security program blocks co.cc i think they are often used for scams. You should be able to get a free domain from here http://www.gbbo.co.uk/getstarted gets you a free .co.uk

I found a way to get a $2.95 .com for a year so I'm working on getting three bucks in my paypal then I'll just do that. Thanks for the suggestion though, and yeah, that's one of the reasons I didn't want to bother with co.cc's.

i love the concept of the website (big arguing fan here, ask almost anyone on the forum) but the design actually hurts my eyes, idk if i could actually use it!!

Sounds like a really good idea. If you get a nice layout and a proper url, I'll definitely have a go.

Not sure if it will interest you but I run a radio station and do a debate show on it - well it's changing to something like opinionated - debates, reviews basically opinions.

I like the idea but you really do need a .co.uk or .com domain as anything but www.insertnamehere.co.uk/.com looks very unprofessional.
