"This argument that if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen gives the Poli Forum almost exclusively over to the few dominators and schoolyard bullies who can gleefully continue to run off or turn off new participants"........
I don't see it this way at all, because a person who poses weaker arguments has the right to post just as many times as the person who "wins" with stronger, more articulate arguments.

A person whose argument gets shot down can go and read all night from various sources and post again and again, with as many comebacks as they want to post. And the exercise and practice would make the person a better debater.

Personal attacks and name calling shouldn't be allowed IMO.
