Comment Flamed?Maybe (Score 1) 515

The way I ( and most people I know ) use the word it can mean two related things :
1) A post/mail using thoughtless namecalling as you described.
2) A post/mail that is nothing but a derogatory response to another post/mail and doesn't bring in any new information into a discussion.

The posts were flames in the sense of 2).
But maybe that's just a weird swiss understanding of the word flame ( on the other hand the best ways to blast people don't include resorting to namecalling : )
