my attempt at a definition of flaming
a. an attempt by a regular BMer to bully/cow a noob, often using citing their ignorance of board norms as the put down, done in an unhelpful or aggressive way.
b. on ongoing row between 2+ board members who cannot agree to disagree or who are incapable of holding a reasoned discussion, resulting in escalating use of insults.
a is sad. b can be entertaining, but is really a waste of energy.
