The entry page needs a little work, particularly the top banner as you pointed out. It's a challenge and a delicate balance. I tried to provide as clear of an explanation on the front-page... do you feel you learned of the value proposition by reading the rest of the page below the banner? I do like the idea of a progressive flow, but the tricky thing is reducing bots/trolls (+banned accounts) from entering back into the live debates.

Not OP, but I thought the body of your landing page did a good job explaining it. However as you suggest the top banner / header could be more impactful.

Ive recently been referring to this [0] landing page guide and one helpful principle is that, for banner header copy to be good, the reader should be able to know exactly what your product is by reading only your banner header
