Flaming
 

Call me picky, but is it my imagination or are there a couple of threads recently that have included a fair amount of flaming?

Debate and vehement arguing I think is fine but when it actually does come down to flaming and trolling then I think it is time to call a halt to it.

If I am wrong mods then feel free to delete this post and I apologise.

Re: Flaming
 

It's deliberately posting inflamatory messages geared to provoke a hostile response.

Is this what you are doing now then Stanaccy ? :confused:

Re: Flaming
 

Oh, in that case I know what you mean:), know which thread as well, not sure if its against the rules of the forum though, sure one of the mods will tell you if you report it.

Re: Flaming
 

Thanks for the info Stanaccy. Got to admit I'd never heard of flaming before. Which thread is it???? :D

Re: Flaming
 

beats me stanaccy:confused: must not have noticed, but then if summats of no interest i dont bother reading em.

I blame Less for mentioning calms before storms. ;)

Seriously, I'm not sure if it's direct, intentional flaming but there has been a bit of trolling. I don't mind a good discussion with sensible opposing views, in fact I enjoy reading what different people have to say on the subject but sad when it degenerates into petty name calling.

No Katex I was noting I had seen them in 2 - 3 threads over the last couple of days, I will admit I did respond to a few though.

Re: Flaming
 

I can't say I've noticed any flaming but I think you should give us a clue. No need to name the flame throwers but which threads do you mean?
