I thought of a fun game for the BBQ Pit.
Ok, here’s how it goes:
You flame the last person that posts to this thread.
…So since I started this thread I get flamed first, then the person that flamed me gets flamed and so on…
So everyone who joins in this game gives flames and gets flames. Neat eh. This game may turn out to be a good way to improve your flaming skills—by way of random flaming.
Just **One Rule:** None shall take this thread seriously or get personal. By participating you agree to this.
_Without further ado,_ lets get started…

Nope. This place wasn’t ever meant to be a place to flame for flaming’s sake. I’m closing the thread before it starts.
