How to avoid flame wars
Heres a small guide to show you how to avoid starting a flame war.
1. If someone sends you a rude message, report it.
2. If the user continues, add them to your ignore list.
3. This is an important one: DONT FEED THE TROLLS!
If someone trolls you, either reply maturely, or don't reply at all. If you reply saying something like: STOP THAT!!!!! I DONT LIKE U!!!!!!!, it creates the mirror effect. Whatever you do is reflected by the other person.
4. Report the user to a moderator.
Hope this helps! 
Edit: This isnt exactly a direct relation to Scratch. These can be guidelines for any sites.

Everything is better when you add a little cheddar, because when you have cheese your life is at ease
