Sorry, didnt think i was "Flaming" - care to explain what that is - this is my first online game, and i see terms like "Flaming" & "Trolling"
Anyway - i'm out of this thread, didnt go down the way i wanted it too, was meant to be positive, so sorry for all those who felt otherwise.
*bows to all*
A flame is a little to no content post that continues an online argument, filled with vitriol and assumption.
A flamewar continues until...
a) Someone mentions the nazis (everyone loses)
b) The argument fizzles out of its own accord (Everyone wins)
c) A mod steps in (At which point a new flamewar appears in a new thread bashing the moderator).
A troll is someone who posts a thread JUST to start an argument or provoke a reaction.
EG: Going to a Ryzom board and posting about how much Ryzom sucks and how good WoW is, or going to a pro-life board and posting to ask advice on how to get an abortion.
Don't feed the trolls.
