From my experience on RF, most debates are never decisively won. They simply peter out due to boredom or sheer futility.
Just to be clear, my question was not rhetorical. I'd be interested if anyone wants to share thoughts about how we can determine who wins/loses a debate.
I think in formal scholastic debate there is probably a jury who votes on it. The guy who gets the trophy is the winner. But there's no jury here. So how can we tell who has won?
