We are trying to create a friendly community here, Anon. The reason Chicken_Man was flamed and such was because he was making racist remarks, annoying people with fake threats of hacks, and other annoying and non-constructive remarks and comments. Obviously, this is not helpful to the operation of a friendly community, and he was quickly flamed, IRC-banned, and socially ostracized from the forum community.
In other words, we are trying to keep a friendly community. We are all humans, though, and we all have our tempers and such. When people annoy us with racism, spam, etc, as m0p mentioned, we respond, and it obviously isn't in a nice way.
Be nice to the forum and community, and it is nice in return. Take advantage of or annoy the forum, or be annoying in general, and you will quickly get flamed and ostracized in return.
Have a nice day.
