That would be nice in theory. Problem is that in a real debate you should have a point system which rewards valid and factual points. If you don't, it always boils down to a he said/she said. Most people can't connect those two dots; I make a bunch of valid points, you made only one....I proved my point better, so I won the debate.
It's one thing to take shots at the subject matter being debated, but it's completely another when someone gets frustrated when they are losing a debate and then turn it personal to try and turn the tide. If someone goes personal, then they deserve whatever they get. Don't open that can of worms if you don't want to be hit in the head with it. Most of the cheap personal shots are usually taken between people that either already don't like each other anyway or people that are totally ignorant and like to get their rocks off by stirring up trouble.
