I've seen debates get downright vicious over the several years I've been on this site, but as long as it never degraded to name calling and blatantly violating the rules, the mods never closed it. Abortion, gay marriage, everything, and it was never closed - Someone suggested that they make it so debates like that are no longer allowed, and Mahz flat out said he wouldn't do that.

You can't tell me that Roleplayerguild.com has changed so much after Guildfall that they (Contra and Mahz) no longer allow debate. Unless I get a mod to tell me otherwise, I refuse to believe it.
