Okay. I want to know. When I call people like Acute Dissidents and CIA Informant Semi-literate, Proletariat twits, am I flaming?

I would think not. I call people worse names and havn't gotten in trouble for it. It all depends on the mod.

I'm not a mod, but yes, when you resort to personal insults it is considered flaming.

sounds ok to me, jsut dont add on something like swear words about their sexual preferences, or other stuff.

I would actually have to say yes, as my previous nation was deleted for saying something even milder than that....

I would think that if you used moderation in calling people these names it should be fine. Just don't call people too many names, or you'll be a flamer. Easier just to avoid the entire name calling thing.

Don't pour gas on the fire. That's all I'm going to say.

Official word? Okay.

Why do you include the use of proletariat? Is it bad to be working class?
