Examples of Flaming


Three examples of flames are listed below. The first is taken from Crispen's Internet Map tour and only serves to illustrate a non-specific flame. It's not targeted against any one type of user. The second is a flame war against AOL users in which AOL users also flame back. The third is a thread that includes flames and reasons why AOL is hated on Usenet. The second and third flames are not censored.
