Why do people do any flaming online? There's no point. They have nothing to gain, and I can't see how it can possibly make them feel better about themselves. Maybe they don't like this board because they don't have the freedom to be as completely stupid and idiotic as they possibly can?

This board does have some pretty strict rules, but they're simple enough to follow. Maybe there's just something I'm missing?[/rant]

Yeah, it's pretty pointless; but I know it's easy to get carried away when somebody writes something that bothers you.

Being able to write a response to things that bother you is something that takes a bit of experience and maturity. You get better at it with time

Because they can get away with it without getting knocked flat on their ass. :\

a. They like to be a jerk and make people feel bad / themselves feel cool. (fail)
b. They're angry and want to take their anger on some other member.
c. They have too much time on their hands.
d. They have never heard of constructive criticism before.

The other thing is that people forget that there are real people on the other end of things. It's easy to get carried away when you forget you're talking to a real person.

If you know how to flame, it can be pretty fun to humiliate someone

I don't see how flaming in any way, shape or form can be enjoyable. I don't feel bad when I make others feel bad with intention, but I never usually do.

I like what Tarale said. You may forget that you are talking to a person, and use it as an opportunity to see what you can come up with in any given situation. But what really gets to me is that the people who come here, post annoying or stupid threads, then get banned probably sit there and think "Ha, I pwned them. My work here is done"

They can't think of an intelligent way to express disagreement. (Or they're fighting fire with fire. )

i think the politics discussion scene of this movie is their motivation. To them, a flame war is their only chance to flex their muscle because they know they can't get hurt.

refer to the greater internet fuckwad theory, as posted in penny arcade.

There is no point in trying to figure out why. Its like trying to figure out why people steal, or rape.

Actually Ramstein's (or Spiderman3) right, calling people dipshits is flaming. The little text below the banner is flaming. Saying "Attention Idiot" to point out someone's bad layout is flaming. It's certianly not constructive criticism.

Everyone debates, everyone argues, and everyone has disagreements at some point in their lifetime.. That said, everyone also should well know by now, there are a lot of idiotic people in the world. This forum doesn't tolerate that kind of idiocy any longer, and regardless of whether you see it as flaming or not.. some people are just very fed up and tired of these fools and are coming right out and making it a point to say; "We don't like you either."

Constructive criticism has its place, but this is not one of them. No constructive thought or suggestion will resolve anything with the idiotic, so why even bother with it? And before you say, "then why bother saying anything at all?" keep in mind.. we're humans, we need to VENT sometimes.. And hell, this is the internet, if we just by chance happen to make a funny along with the "flaming" than it is all the better.

Unless of course, Internet = Serious Business to you.

It's still flaming. Whether you think you have a good reason or not doesn't change anything. You can't honestly think it's going to solve anything.

Nice person + Anonymity on the net = Total bastard.

Lack of conseqences of your opinions virtually renders people's inhibitions and superego useless, so they say exactly what they feel without being held back.

I guess so, but sometimes they do it just to prove they can. Say, they really have no reason to do it, they just think it will make them cool or some kind on legend. As far as legends go, there are infamous ones, but doing any flaming whatsoever a legend does not make.
