flamming is making inflammatory remarks geared to invoke an emotional response-- when a simple tactful comment could have communicated the point much better w/o the drama. its a skill. practice practice practice.

Flaming is a complete failure to use diplomacy.

The section of the Terms of Service that applies to flaming explains it very well, IMO.
Quote:
|
Be civil, no personal attacks, flaming, or insults. We may attack ideas (politely) but we do not attack the speaker of the idea. Be careful with your words, there is a point where being direct crosses a line into blunt, in-your-face hostility. Please, report bad posts instead of engaging in flame wars on the boards. Insulting another member or a moderator will not be tolerated anywhere on this website. This includes Direct Messages and Reputation Comments.
