I just wanted to discuss what rules of flaming are deemed acceptable to people here.
Flaming happens all across the net, but are there some solid rules which you do not cross?
This link is pretty old as it discusses newsgroups.
But do rules like making fun of ones nick or that of the way one types english constitue flames?
I personally think that is patethic.
And no nobody can start a flaming session here.
Second i want to know for my own personal benefit, as i a novice.
Third are their any flame threads which i can read here.
I want to learn from the masters!
No i don't want examples of flames.

Ok done, but no real flame wars, just some flames.

Don't tell me that.
That is not possible.
Ok so flaming the language of typed english is not ok.
What about Nicks?
They far game?
And what about bring parents into the flames?

As with sex, so with flames: it's always the quiet ones you have to watch out for, you know.

What makes you say that?
I just want to be prepared, and this seems like the best place to learn.
So educated me!!

Dipping members in heated cheddar preparatory to rendering them into fondue is also not acceptable behavior.
This tends to get overlooked.
