This often happens in some forums. We haven't encountered it here as almost everyone know eachother and Our forum is pretty new.

I guess it happens in older forums with lots of members. Its a serious issue considering it scares away new users. So how do you handle it?

I think most large forums experience it on a regular basis, in my opinion it's all apart of the forum eco-system (sounds gay) It all depends on the severity and the frequency in my opinion, if a user is regularly flaming then a PM and possibly a short ban would suffice. Flamers aren't a good thing to have, we all know that, but having them is just all part of running a forum and dealing with it is another step you gotta take if you wan't to succeed.

Best post I've seen you do. Can't really add on to it other than that you are finally becoming a man Gytix. :')
