Default Flame on!

The flame wars are really bad with Atkins on this popular web site, some are hilarious, some are fanatically against atkins and the atkins followers are way outnumbered...

The Survivor board I admin is like that, and I have to admit its quite therapuetic to rip a new one into some faceless idiot. But the thing is that our membership (which is more than 28,000 BTW) understand that it's not serious and all in fun. Every once in a while someones skin wears too thin and they run away crying - but for the most part its a pretty tough bunch.

maybe I'll go over to this board and practice some of my flaming skills

Owen,
To tell you the truth, I only lurk and read at EZ. Those people scare me! I've seen what they can do to a newbie! LOL

Love the board, but I'd have to hide under your cape if I wanted to post!

Keep up the good work though. I really get a chuckle reading the posts.

Take care, fellow Scorpion!

My sence of humour can tend to be a lil morbid at times, guess that's why I enjoyed reading those morons. Kinda cracked me up like the BS funnies.I do NOT agree with that gaggle of twits..............
