Frequently Asked Questions
Question
Um... I've joined the site recently and I've just been browsing in the galleries and the forums for the fanart. The word 'flaming' keeps on coming up, but I don't know what it means... *blushes*
Answer
A flame is a remark that is meant to deliberately insult so as to hurt feelings or incite an argument.
For example, in the art galleries you might see "the legs are too skinny and you need to work on your musculature a bit more". That is a critique or constructive criticism. "You suck" or "Put down your pencil and BURN IT!!!" are both examples of flames.
