Saying there thread is a dumb thread?? calling someone a stupid c**t Saying "thats the most idiotic thing ive ever read" From Wikipedia: "Flaming is the act of posting messages that are deliberately hostile and insulting, usually in the social context of a discussion board on the Internet. Such messages are called flames, and are sometimes posted in response to flamebait. Flaming is said by some to be one of a class of economic problems known as The Tragedy of the Commons, when a group holds a resource (in this case, communal attention), but each of the individual members has an incentive to overuse it. Flamers usually call their flames justified attacks." Complete Wikipedia definition: Wikipedia - Flaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lamphun Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Surely calling somebody an idiot when you know from their posts that they're an idiot cannot be considered flaming. It's merely stating the facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 All of the above. From forum rules: 'Flaming' is best defined as posting or responding to a message in a way clearly intended to incite useless arguments, rants, and/or for launching personal attacks, insulting, being hateful, useless criticism, name calling, swearing and other bad behavior or comments meant to incite anger.

Sheesh, would have been easier to just highlight the whole paragraph ! Is Bedlam exempt from the rules ? Because I think almost everything in the quote above has been done, just in The Last Word thread alone ! Could be a whole bunch of people there that are in need of a good spanking !

lampard10 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I totally agree with Toaster, who's not normally well known for his wit, rather his round portly appearance and his complete lack of ability to stand up after 7 oclock in the evening.

It's always 7 o'clock in the evening, somewhere in the world (well OK, it's always within 60 minutes of 7 o'clock in the evening, somewhere in the world).

redrus Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Its always gotta be a mod decision cos, I really couldn't give a toss what people say about me (yeah good job I know before Lamps, Kerry or DB butt in) but, others may take offence to what I see as fine. Someone doing a good job should know whos who and, be able to make that informed decision.

kayo Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 I guess I´m only batting 5 for 10. I´ll try to get the other five under my belt.

ovenman Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Sometimes when I post and have to edit it before pressing post because im not sure if its a flame or not, ... A good rule of thumb for starters is that if you are considering editing a soon-to-be-post because you think you may be flaming, you are probably flaming.
