Flaming is when a person writes a post that has all intent of insulting or creating conflict within a group. Flaming is often filled with bad language, curse words and personal insults. It is meant to hurt people’s feelings, get them fired up, and not to further conversation on a personal issue.

Flaming is when a user is posting mean, cruel, or foul language to other user/users. Flaming is basically like talking S*** to other users on a posting site or forum.

Flaming is posting inflamatory posts or remarks. Basically being a jerk, trying to make people angry.
