online communities

I believe that from our experience today of online communities, that I would not want to be apart of them. I would not want to be “flamed out” or I would not want to have to deal with people that “flame out” other people.  I think that people should be treated fairly until suggests otherwise. Even in the case where they are being deviant, they should be excluded or rejected rather than be “flamed out”, because being rejected and left out is (for me) more powerful than having someone take the time to write out nasty words to you. Although, I have never been in that situation where I had been deceived via an online community. It maybe that “flaming out” is like exclusion in reality… I don’t know and hope to never find out what it feels like to be “flamed out”.
