I agree to both andwhyisit's and DT's definition.
And I don't think that any definitions have to be in the rules.
Flaming is usually attacking a user FOR a reason, trolling is attacking a user for no reason. (Or just to look "better" to other people)
lol, so it's based on your opinion again, since you get it from your experience.

DoubleThink said:Flaming - Attacking another user for no real reason, often involves TEXT YELLING and lots of mean words. Does not always have to be digging for attention, I mean somebody could just be an officious jerk who enjoys yelling at people <_< Think about the word, flaming = staring up flames/fanning the fires of a raging argument, makes sense yes?

DoubleThink said:And before anybody argues with me on these definitions I would please ask that you don't, because
a) These definitions are pretty much textbook,
b) I have seen probably thousands of cases of each of these, which all pretty much match my descriptions, and having one or two people tell me I'm wrong won't do much to change my 'opinion lol', and
c) I am obscenely grumpy at the moment and will probably say something mean
