Flames naturally just happen,

Opportunity is easy...

Motivation is more difficult


Couldn't agree more. I suggested a match to provide a little motivation.

Flame matches usually run to 4-5 pages. The flame wars started in the aftermath can last for 100 and spark rivalries that can outlast the board.

It’s just not the same. Look at my FB challenge post


I gave everyone the opportunity to flame me to hell and back. At TRF, it have been on page 5 by now. I think flaming probably died with Bra1ns common sense

Yeah, it's done. TRF had a good mix and for a long time we baked some damn good brownies. Now the choc chips are in one place, the oil someplace else, CW has the mixer, fuckin' Bra1n shut off the power, and here we hold the box of powder (Ghirardelli, which includes the chips btw).

This shit isn't going to get forced. Doesn't work that way, not over the long term, which is what matters considering the bills never stop.

That PYP two years ago was the last great match, and I say that having had almost no involvement in it.

Anyway, I'll be here until the end, that's a guarantee.

PEACE!

So who is Emily?

RIGHT THERE, in a fucking nutshell, is the fatal flaw in your whole "Flame" paradigm.

Emily is an anonymous internet persona.  That's all you need to know.  You don't need to pre-write a bunch of bullshit about Emily's mom, or her ethnicity, or her kids, or her job.  You just deal with what's in front of you.  If that scares you, you don't really understand what flaming is but you're still addicted to the same lame game that's been driven into the ditch years ago but can't quite die because every few months someone shows up and gets nostalgic for the Imaginary Good Times.

Preach, brother.   

The other sounds like PI insults.

That nostalgia is shared by many, some we've known for more than a decade. These folks are stuck.

What a fuckin idiot. You come out squawking like a burst helium blimp that 'I' don't understand the game and I somehow need personal information on this character.

By making that statement you show yourself to be a clueless prick.

Just so you understand how fuckin dumb you really are I'll explain it to you.

When a flamer enquires about a nic they are unaware of they have no desire for PII. We don't want a persons age, sex, location, marital status, bodymass, political inclination, residential status, or how many fuckin Twinkies they eat on an average week

So what.else could one anonymous personality want to know about another?

See, because you flapped your enormous gums before you considered the question you managed to miss the point entirely?

The only fuckin thing I would want to know is where else they post. Do they have another nic here and are they better known under another nom de plume?

That's the only information a flamer would need.

You are dumber than a brick in Trump's wall ya fuckin retard.

Go beat your sloped forehead against the door ya daft cunt.  :popcorn:

Why do you need to know any of the information you want?  What purpose does it serve?

Knowing what other nyms a person might be known by isn't "important" as such, but can be informative.

If we found out a "new" nym was actually the poster formerly known as TheAmazingSting, I assure you that would be relevant information in a number of ways. Same for pretty much anyone who's been around or was around back in those fabled busier days in flametown.

It's a factoid, nothing more or less, but sometimes a factoid can hold a whole lot of meaning.

I didn't miss the fuckin point, ya schmuck.  I've been reading "flamers" for a fukkin decade already, and I know quite well what they are looking for.  And it's not what you say it is.

I feel sorry for you but not for what you call "the game."  That "game" is dying because the people who think they "know" it are hopelessly, hideously STUCK in a paradigm that a small ass number of them created out of the mistaken belief that "flaming" could exist as a free-standing sport.

Fuck, man...any real troll can tell you that flaming is merely one of the three, or maybe five, essential tools in a troll's toolbox.  But it's only ONE of those tools.  And in its pure form, flaming is done against what warriors call "targets of opportunity."  Real time, WYSIWYG.

I'm not going to argue with Vit on this point, because I've seen his work.  In my recollection, he's a "clean" flamer who doesn't resort to PI even if he's losing an exchange.  And that makes him one of the exceptions that proves the rule.

The only worthwhile flamers don't resort to PII. It's piss fuckin weak and the second you resort to it you lose.

That's not to say that when Caskur consistently posts about the gargantuan amounts of food she eats that it's not fair game to flame her on it or Pickles posts one of his hilariously lispy commentaries and he gets called a squeaking queen it should go ignored.

The general rule is that if someone posts PI in Flametown then they should expect to get flamed on it. If the PI has been mined then it's really bad etiquette to use it.

Don't even get me started on whether Flea posts her own pics or her daughters. That's some dark shit.  :popcorn:

I concur.
That doesn't mean it's wrong to be curious or even ask a question.
Are you one of those people who thinks anything done not the way you would is wrong by definition?
Oh my. That's an awfully big target on your forehead, snookums.

Seems to me that people want to dig up old shit to come back at posts from flamers like Emily.  Why not come back at these posters based on what you see posted?

Let me see if I'm picturing this correctly...

...you're at a costume party where you have excellent reason to presume you already know some if not most of the people there. Rather than simply asking someone you've already recognized if the idiot stumbling around dressed as Spongebob is someone else you both know, you'd rather pretend you don't care? Why? What does that accomplish? Where is it written "Thou Shalt Not Try To Guess The Identities of Fellow Partygoers" and who the fuck was stupid enough to write it?

You're ascribing motives not in evidence and making up weird rules apparently from thin air.

Holy shit... maybe you are a flamer after all!

Muahaha

Silly me, I thought you knew better than this.
Flaming is and always has been superior to trolling.
Any jackwagon with an internet connection can troll; an even moderately successful flame takes skill.
Trolling is actually only one of the tools in a flamer's belt, used to get the target to react in a specific and desirable way.

But trolling just for the sake of trolling?  Thbbbft. Newbie level shit.
