i've noticed that more and more threads become flamefests between always the same handful of people.
Could you guys (yes you, i wont name names but everybody should know whom i mean) please do that namecalling kindergarten spiel over here in this thread now? thanks.

@resmod: please make sticky and keep unlocked. thanks.

You have a lot to learn about what flaming is. I haven't seen any in the forum recently. Perhaps I should point that disagreements between people and ad hominem posts are not flames in themselves. Perhaps you've led a sheltered forum life ;)

Can't you find your shift key then? Why should I post to a thread where the OP obviously thinks so little of potential respondents that he can't be bothered to use two hands to type? :rolleyes:

PS IBTL - as usual . . .

There is this great brand new feature on message boards called ignore. Works wonders when you don't want to read someone's posts. I find it works much better than starting your own flaming thread that only encourages the very behavior you are complaining about.

IBTL.

I don't see flamefests going on. I think people disagree on things but so far it has been pretty tame.

Doubt it will get locked.

Also doubt it will get pinned.

It is kinda bleh to have to wade thru the petty stuff to read the sweaty stuff tho.

It's not gonna work. Here's why:

Poster A: Makes a statement.

Poster B: God, what an idiot. That's wrong and Against The Will of God and unAmerican. I will say so at once!

Now...in Poster B's place, would you say, "Oh...but there's a flame thread for that. I shall go there and write, "Poster A is a dumbass".?

No...you would immediately hit the Reply button in the offending thread and say "Poster A is a dumbass" right there and then.

I do it, you do it, we all do it. It's human nature. Law of the Web. Something like that.

IBTL.

Shh! Don't you go repeating that, young man!

Um...I do think "dumbass" is allowed in a PG forum, though. And it sounds slightly more dignified than "doodybrains", which I'm sure I've heard you kids using.
