Proof please

[4 Scale]

Try as I might, I cannot find any definition of "flaming" that includes any reference to "truth". Instead I find words like "hostile" and "insulting" as the measures. Perhaps the quotes in post #6 fall into a gray area but at least one member seems to have considered it flaming. Personally, I'd rather the forum be civil and inviting to all and will try to stay away from the gray.

I had a friend who owned a '74 and I drove it/helped him work on it. It was a typical British sports car - difficult to fix and needed fixing constantly. I would expect an online forum of MGB owners to be filled with unhappy people predisposed to flaming.
