Web Related Morality

Post by SirNitram »

If some disgruntled people from an online game formed a board simply to flame people, and they were highly offensive to someone I care about, is it wrong to initiate a one-man flamewar against the cretins? Or am I overreacting with my adrenaline?

And because I know the locals enjoy flaming people, I provide you a link. It's an EzBoard. I'm VeritasKnight.

I think its justified to start a flamewar in those circumstances. Just who did they attack that you know?

Hey, the firs two posts are from the first two board members I chose for my fanfic! Neat!

Anyway, if someone forms a group for the purpose of flaming, then flaming is what they should expect in return. I see no reason not to fight their fire with your fire.
For a time, I considered sparing your wretched little planet Cybertron.
But now, you shall witnesss ... its dismemberment!

Yeah, flame the flamers in their own firepit, at least until you run out of funny pictures :)

Do you have a hosting account set up somewhere with unlimited email aliases? Might be helpful until they get smart enough to ban the domain itself...

What do you mean "can I"? You MUST start a flamewar. Hell, I'll help you!

Have a very nice day.

My girlfriend, with highly offensive images. The images have been removed from Angelcities.

It's better than that. I use AOL. They use AOL. They are computer ignorant.

At the peak of it all, I'll dare them to ban me.

Guess what happens when they ban AOL?

Flame on!

I'm not sure which is the smallest in numerical value: their IQs, their ages, or their shoe sizes.

I tried to spam them to oblivion, but then a mod came along.

That sucks. They should be flamed till their computers melt. And other things get hot.

Well, yes, they actually figured out how to delete posts and ban single users(Amusingly, the thread I was so pissed about got caught in the carnage). Thanks for your help, guys. I'm gonna keep flaming them every day or so, until I figure it's enough. Given an EzBoard account takes all of five minutes to make, and most of it is waiting for the email, well...

But again, thanks.

Waste of Time. They are beneath consideration or even contempt. That board amounts to the scrawling on a bathroom stall at a rest stop between barstow and bakersfield.
