Fifth, even if you start a reasonably informative, interesting, and peaceful thread, some insecure jerks will jump in no time.

QFT. And if you can't get a flamewar going, just post something about anothers country demographics or politics, and even mods arn't able to resists, it seems ;)

What can we do about it?

User: Ignore posts that just flaming, really. The problem is not the first flame post. The problem is, that a lot of people are just pissed and do the wrong thing, they respond. Not only quick responses, with YMMD if the flame is funny, full responses, picking up the argument. Just ignoring flame posts would help, those flame user just would go somewhere else.

Mods: Ban, edit and warn, if things get out of hand. Be a good role model.
