Flaming
From NLSC Wiki
Flaming can be defined as directing personal attacks and insults towards other members of the forum, including moderators and the admin. Flaming is against the rules of the Forum and persistent flames may result in the banning of a member's account. Flaming should not be confused with enthusiastic discussion that argues a point which is on-topic. Flaming involves off-topic insults and personal attacks on forum members that do not contribute to the discussion in any way and often get in the way of people who wish to talk about the topic at hand.
Particularly heated and lengthy flames may be referred to as a flame war.
