3 step guide to avoid flamewars

Here's a small guide to help you avoid flame wars:
These can be used not only on Scratch but on the Internet in general!

1. Don't start it.
    -Don't start flame wars! If nobody is bothering you, dont bother them. Starting flame wars only leads to turning everything into a big mess.

2.Don't encourage it.
This is an important one. If someone else is the flamer, don't encourage/humour them. Just ignore them. The flamer will then realize there is no point in fighting as they get nothing out of it.

3. Keep your cool.
Another important one. Remember, you are a person, not an explosive! Try your best to keep your cool if someone is being a troll.


Thanks! I hope this will  be helpful!

I was going to report this as spam, but then I almost got the ban hammer from over-reporting.

Anyways, great guide, bro.

Well it's a meme on Youtube now. As if the thumbs-up people weren't enough.
What has Youtube come to?
