Flame » in reply to I know what you mean

I think it's all Tom's fault.

If I remember right, Tom starter putting posts in here that were more than likely erupt into flames.

We used to flagrantly flame each other on CE and the forum survived. Threads were moved or people called their opponents to flame when things turned all- "ad hominem".

One thing I've noticed is people use flame to express an opinion. Sometimes they use Off-topic too. We really don't have a board to express yourself other than Community. Very early on I realized that loading a post with personal pronouns wasn't the greatest way to get your point across. It was better to include supporting links and cite their sources than to wing it, with only your own experience.

A board where you can more freely use "I", "My" and "Me", to say what's on your mind would be nice.

As far as a “Hierarchy” goes with parent and child boards, why not give it a try.
