For a theoretical social networking site focused on debating (run by a theoretically very large league of debaters which keeps meticulous stats and stuff on each person and group), what are some neat features you would like to see?

Some things I was thinking included,

[list]  
[_]Profiles  
[_]Team networks (i.e., you’re profiled within your team, will be often listed with them, etc.)  
[_]Forums  
[_]“Debate Practice” (allow a user to upload a video of a practice debate, and have other users comment and give advice)  
[_]“Debate Online” (debate people online, with a sort of threaded view where you get to make points and such; I think debate includes special structures that could be chosen between, etc.)  
[_]Forum  
[\*]Some sort of wiki? Probably not unless somebody has a good reason.  
[/list]

Oh, and the theoretical site could potentially be concerned about some spamming and such. Previously the theoretical organization tried captchas and the like, but the theoretical group looking for something a bit better. Did I hear somebody else say [Akismet](http://akismet.com/)?
