If you're the OP of a post addressed to one side and you don't get the engagement you wanted, you have the option of changing the flair to Open at any time.

Means you don't mind who jumps in right from the start.

If you see a post with this flair and you are a GE, please do not comment until an FE has at least begun to engage with the OP. Is for posts where a Globe Earther wants to talk with Flat Earthers. UPVOTES/DOWNVOTES: as well as the rules below, we ask that you consider voting based on how well you think a post or comment fits with the spirit of this sub, rather than whether you agree with it. If there's a bad vibe to the convo, that seed will never take root.

Remember that even if you can't change someone's mind today, you might just plant an idea that grows later. This sub is intended to try and see what happens to flat-earth debates when the mods are neutral and the members behave cordially - not just at the start of a debate but all the way though, no matter how stupid one side thinks the other is being. They will warn, delete or temp ban for impolite behaviour but not for 'bad' arguments. Mods are referees, they don't get involved in debates. Experimental, neutral flat earth debate sub where everyone is expected to be nice to each other!
