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.

Good topic. There are a few threads around with flames. In do a search on "flame" with username "Gruntboy".

Seriously, it can be difficult, especially with native english speakers, because we like to flame each other just for the fun of it.

Ok done, but no real flame wars, just some flames.
What this place has never had any flame wars?
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?

Preparing to go on a flame rampage are we?

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

*how did they find out??*

No.. NO .. NOOO.
What makes you say that?
I just want to be prepared, and this seems like the best place to learn.
So educated me!!
And COMM!
Just had to add that in there!

Read Brink's guide for pre-spammers! It's all explained there.

Finally thank you!

COMM wannabe Waverly/Gruntboy/Foul mix thingy ooglaboogla.

ALso search 'Waverly' and go to threads in which new people(then) posted in alot or started. You can see how much he torments them.

You weren't a true citizen of SYm till wankerly flamed you, which wasn't very hard to get.

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

This tends to get overlooked.

True, but how often does that event occur? *hears screaming coming from Dr. Grunt Island* Uhh...nevermind.

I thought that was THE initiation at the cheese guild (at least that's what they told me[still trying to get that edam smell out of my helm of Valinor]). hmmm - Curdis
