I'm just curious, really.

You want an exact definition of number of people involved and number of flames per page, so you can walk right up to the line, but not quite put your toe across it? Forget it.  Whether a thread has devolved into a flame war is a discretionary decision made on a case by case basis.  Deal with it.

No, I'm just curious. I'm not looking for an exact answer to anything, more for a general explanation for what would constitute that kind of thing, and I got one from Evie. Now I'm asking whether multiple people can flame each other if they choose to do so themselves. But, on second thought, if they were allowed to do that, the caveat about flame wars wouldn't be there to begin with.

 I thought we were allowed to ask questions here and that we'd get answers from staff. Was I wrong?
