Title: How is it that most people online just don't get the basic rule...
Post by: WiinolikePS3 on February 04, 2008, 03:42:23 PM
If you don't flame people or act like an idiot, you generally won't be flamed.


Yet, dumbasses and ninnyes alike, (and some impulsive/unlucky people) try to start a flame war, and end up in an emo state.


The easiest way to stay out of a "fight" is to... well... not get into one.

Generally, if you're not doing anything wrong or stupid, and you're getting flamed, people WILL back you up. I've learned that.

I'm not going to be mean, but I don't think this post is going to make anyone change their minds on flaming.

I realized that with the lack of posts.  :P

Also, on the bolded, nice to know that we're getting new members that are that nice.


It's people like you that we need here.

Those who never flame, and only support the flamed.

I think he's trying to say, "Don't flame or be an idiot, you won't be flamed. And if you're flamed for no reason, people will realize that and take your side." Which is neither supporting you nor arguing with you. That's my opinion.

As I agree with your post, people also need to be flamed to learn...But overall, I agree. If you don't want to leave a war that you lost, don't start one.

By the comments I'm getting, I'm guessing I hit it about dead-on.
