❝people in a certain number of groups should not be allowed to apply for any more groups unless they leave their current ones❞

Hello there, and welcome to my debate bowl comment! Today, I am arguing against the subject, in which was chosen for us to debate. I disagree with the subject for two different reasons. These reasons include, are putting pressure on no one but themselves and being in too many groups isn't exactly a bad thing.

My first reason for believing that people in a certain number of groups should be allowed to apply for new ones, unless they quit old ones, is in many groups are putting pressure on no one, but themselves. To explain further, since groups give group work, if the person is overwhelmed, then it is their fault, and it is not affecting anyone else. Another reason, to my theory, is the person in many groups should not have to be forced to leave said groups, and if they feel pressure, they have an option to be able to make a choice, without that pressure. This may even teach how to deal with stress.

My last reason for believing that people in a certain number of groups should not be allowed to apply for new ones, unless they quit old ones, is being in too many groups isn't exactly a bad thing. By this, I mean that being in too many groups gives the member a chance to take responsibility for his/her actions, or gives the member a chance to help out the community. If the member feels that they are taking too much responsibility, they have the option to quit a few groups. might also may have more self-reliance after they are in too many groups, at once.

In conclusion, the two reasons I chose to represent the cause that in a certain number of groups should be able to apply for more, unless they quit their current groups is because the memebrs are putting pressure on nobody, but themselves, and that being in too many groups isn't such a bad thing. Doing this, could teach self-reliance and responsibility, or even how to deal with stress. This is why I believe that should be able to apply for new groups, reguardless of the amount they are currently in.

⋆The prompt⋆

People in a certain number of groups should not be allowed to apply for any more groups unless they leave their current ones

⋆My side⋆

Disagree

⋆My debate⋆

should be allowed to apply to any number of groups they want to be in. If they show determination and ion for the group by putting a lot of effort into their application, and not sending in a half-baked one, they should be allowed to be accepted into the group regardless of how many current groups they are in, if the leaders of their group think they are worthy. I believe that the number of groups one is in also shows one's capability. The member shows that they can manage their time well in each of their groups, and can finish all of their assignments without being tardy. I believe that this also shows the group this member is applying for that the member has excellent time management, and being in another group would not affect this member's activity.

Surely, giving a limit to how many groups one can be in may have some benefits. For example, this limit can let think twice before applying for a group, to consider whether they really want to take on this job. However, this leads to a lower number of people applying for a group each time; since we can only be in only so many groups. I think this will affect groups, especially ones that are less popular, greatly. With no , how can a group function well?

In addition, this will also lead to a higher quitting rate as have no choice but to leave one or more of their current groups to apply for new ones. This leads to groups having to open applications frequently, which can be quite a tedious process to go through applicants one at a time. Being in the staff team of two groups, I can personally say that looking through applications is no easy feat. Leaders spend much time, sometimes hours even, to look through applications and sieve out the ones that the group is looking for. Why should this time be spent looking through applications when it can be spent to brainstorm ideas to improve the group?

Besides that, groups are not only you work with to complete a certain assignment, group are friends, and some even as close as family. Why should one have to be forced to leave a group of friends just to make a new group of friends? That's right, one shouldn't.

“people in a certain number of groups should not be allowed to apply for any more groups unless they leave their current ones.”

I disagree with this statement. First of all, it shouldn’t matter how many groups a person is in, as long as they’re being a good group member and doing their work. If they are able to handle all of the work, they should be allowed to be in a lot of groups. Now, if the member weren’t able to handle all of the work, and wasn’t being a good group member, there’s a simple answer- demotion. And, even though being in a lot of groups could cause the member to become more and more inactive in each, that isn’t the case for every member. Some being inactive due to being in a lot of groups shouldn’t prevent others from applying for more groups, especially when the problem can be easily fixed.

Secondly, I know for a fact that it’s many ’ dreams to make it into certain groups- I myself have quite a few dream groups I’ve always wanted to . However, if these are already at the limit, they’d be prevented from reaching their goal. I know that many people will say there’s a simple answer- quitting. However, groups mean a lot to the people in them, I myself know this from being in quite a few groups myself. I’d never imagine choosing a group to quit over another, much less having to, being forced to quit a group just to be able to apply for another; after all, there even is a possibility of not making it into the group applied for, and then I would’ve quit one of my groups and got nothing out of it.

Preventing from applying for groups can decrease the number of applicants to the group. Many people who are in many groups like applying for more groups- many of a group's applicants are those already in four+ groups. Preventing them from applying could decrease the amount of applicants by a lot; and, if the group needs a lot of new , it could prevent the group from acquiring the new they need, and could cause the group to weaken.

In conclusion,

Why should we prevent from applying for groups when the only possible harm to come out if it can easily be prevented?

Why should we prevent from reaching their dreams, or force them to quit one of their current groups they care so deeply about in order to reach that dream?

Why should we prevent from applying for groups when it could cause the group to not get the they need, to weaken?

The answer is simple; we shouldn’t.

this week's topic

"people in a certain number of groups should not be allowed to apply for any more groups unless they leave their current ones."

My side to this: Yes

First of all I agree to this, about a year ago I knew I wanted to be in so many groups and I loved trying to be in them, but every time I applied with the results came out I saw this one person get it every single time, i was really upset bc they where in like 13 groups and I was in none ,,

I do believe there should be a limit to groups, I think there should be no where above 6 ( not including curator / leader )

The reason why I think this is bc there are new ing the community that are just as good as the people with Alot of titles,

what I seem to find is people with titles seem to be getting into Alot of groups, like if you have a person with no titles and a person with "CCC" (random group I made) and you both work just as hard trying to get in I see people with the title "CCC" get in besides a none title,,

it's really upsetting, especially if you see people in the community with like 13 titles and you have a 0.

Well that's my opinion on this and thank you for reading if you came this far ♡
