We are becoming a flame forum

[Frood]

However, one wants to define flaming, I don't think flame forums are for me and vice versa..



There are some people on flame forums I really like though.

I've heard a lot about these great flamers, but I've never seen anything other than chest thumping.

The bravado is a big part of it.... one needs cajones to walk digitally into a new place and stir the locals without getting banned from the get go.



It's kind of like online martial arts.

Ask Fox (Poppy) about how it's done.... ask Bricktop too (Rotwang). It isn't an exact science but there are methods to get under the skin and rile up individuals, whole forums, and start really fruitful shit shows that can last near indefinitely.



Take for instance my occasional use of the phrase 'lil choo choo boy" towards you. It's paid dividends. I'm no train driver but I did get a ride along where two aussie blokes let me control the deceleration and acceleration of the diesel train going through NSW, according to their strict instructions (do this, do that, not enough, too much sort of thing)... they sat there watching me like a hawk and if at any point I didn't do exactly like they said, there would two big beefy guys ready to remove me..... not that they needed to... one of the guys was an old employee in my prior company and we'd worked for years with each other. I got the ride along because the company was hiring new potential drivers. I had applied and the company ok'd the ride. They drove us all out in a luxury cab because on that day, they couldn't get their assured normal.



So my stating that train drivers are just bus drivers on training wheels is obviously mischievous.





But it worked.



You maintained that I was a liar, and if I wasn't, people were up for criminal prosecution or firings.



It was all kosher though.



I repeatedly got told that if even fast tracked, it would take 18-36 months to get accreditation. Signalling was first and foremost, then the interesting shit.
