These flame wars shall crack the crust of the Earth and destroy the world! P.S.: If this is spamming, sorry. hmm

Neotyguy40 · Sep 05, 2009 12:00 AM

Ohh come on... They don't actually hurt anyone...

I think as long as they are controlled to a point, they are fine...

Rurikredwolf · Sep 05, 2009 2:59 PM

I find them hilarious, especially when the flamer is proving a point.

I believe that anyone that needs to resort to ad hominem arguments automatically loses.

RedDragonX · Sep 06, 2009 12:45 AM

I believe if any of them break out over the forum then their is an issue that will involve disciplinary action tongue

Flame wars are like exploding outbreaks that people who are arrogant via tone by typing; if you feed the flame, you'll be part of it. You'll be better off reporting to the mods and let their powers fry over the troublemakers. ...Only if this is serious flaming, and not silly putty throws. ;o In other means, I just want it go away from parts of the world of the internet. But sometimes I can't help it but laugh. X3

Flame wars are liek teh best eva. Some are just plain awesome others are just lame. Depends on who is flaming and on what topic. EG: religious flame wars are always good fun to read. Heres some educated well spoken flame war with added spell check big_smile {Stormy: removed link}

RedDragonX · Sep 08, 2009 3:54 PM

That right there is as good as advertising. Please don't put down links to other sites...ESPECIALLY if they are forums. That isn't tolerated on the forum.

wanderist · Sep 08, 2009 8:42 PM

I think flame wars are bad. They can hurt people's feelings or make a new person feel unwelcome. That's just my opinion.

bmah · Sep 09, 2009 4:42 AM

My opinion: they're hilarious, unless you're involved in it. Simple as that. Even after knowing that fact, I still can't help but smile when I watch someone else's struggles, lol. I try to refrain posting in those situations as much as possible.

If you come across a random flame war that you really don't care about, it does get REALLY funny.

There was one going on for a YouTube video in the comments. My friend thought this was hilarious.

lol same here especially when they are between fanboys flaming about which system is better ps3 vs xbox360. I don't really care which system is better as long as there are great games to play on it.

TornWings · Sep 14, 2009 3:13 AM

They're going to happen regardless of what people think of them... best thing to do is try not to get caught up in one.

Phoenix_Flyer · Sep 14, 2009 10:37 PM

Up to a point they're funny, especially if you're watching and not participating. But it depends what they're about, if it's over something meaningless then I say let them flame away. It also depends on what area of a forum they're in.
Be all and end all is, it depends on what each individual fight is about as to how I feel about it.

~cornys~ · Sep 15, 2009 7:31 PM

If one side is not emotionaly stable than there might be a problem..... but then again this is the purpose of a flame war.... the ultimate victory if to eat through their barriers and convert them in to the same mind as you..... However the likelyhood of this happening is none and the Flamer(s) usually just look stupid.... lol

Sora · Sep 18, 2009 12:58 AM

FLAME ON! They are my main source of internet entertainment. :*bleep*in:

~cornys~ · Sep 19, 2009 4:21 AM

But in any event with out them forums would be rather boring wouldn't they? lol
