piano8950 32577 Report post Posted July 21, 2013 cerbies what is meant by the term flaming? Wow, grandma alert here! ...- Sorry for being rude, but thought I'd give you a basic example of flaming. Basically, rudeness for the intent of insulting because people have too much time on their hands for such nonsence. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mutau 2516 Report post Posted July 21, 2013 Bonjour Mlle Raven, This definition was taken from the Urban Dictionary. Flaming: An online argument that becomes nasty or derisive, where insulting a party to the discussion takes precedence over the objective merits of one side or another. X was flaming Y over his religious beliefs Hope this helps you! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest **cely***r***ne Report post Posted September 8, 2013 I had previously thought "flaming" referred to a very feminine gay fellow.. I just love how our language is so-for lack of better words (ironcally) BIG! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't realize that this meaning of "flaming" or "flame war" on th Internet is already old enough to have been nearly lost in the mists of time...Is time going by faster these days? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

6dave9 4008 Report post Posted December 3, 2013 (edited) And don't forget the -flame suit-.. as a flame protecting suit.. When you decide to stick to your guns and post your opinion and knowing full well that you are going against the grain and then fully expect the wrath of the minions for doing so.. e.g. "....... so there that's where I stand... like it or not.... -Flame suit -ON-..."
