Flaming: A White Paper

Overview This paper reports on a systematic study of flaming behavior, drawn from examining and coding some 1,200 messages from the newsgroup alt.flame. Alt.flame is a newsgroup where flames are composed and publicly broadcast. Unlike private flaming, public flamers know their flames are being read and digested by an anonymous readership. This condition may put pressure on flamers to make their flames artful and witty as well as inflammatory. It very likely makes their flames longer.
