>>For one (and this may be the most difficult skill), notice dirty tactics in debates and send a warning when noticed. An example of a dirty trick is calling someone a whiner. This is an argumentum ad hominem. Even if it's your personal feeling about the other, it is not appropriate behavior to use it in the debate. Another one is the usage of dysphemistic wordings, e.g. calling someones argumentation 'utter nonsense'. It shows disrespect for the opponent.
