In this thread, you post links to other fora that you deem fertile ground for a flame war and/or fora that are havens for particular flame warriors (i.e. breeding grounds). Once listed, it will be a simple matter to find new fora to practice your Flame Warrior skills.
I will begin:
The Elder Scrolls Forum: This forum is the official forum of the Elder Scrolls series of games. It is filled with fanboys. The smallest criticism of their beloved franchise can literally get a hundred posts in minutes. Their army of moderators, however, will shut down any thread like this in seconds. Their community (off-topic) section is home to innocence abused and those that pretend to be innocence abused to gain attention.
RPGCodex: Styles itself "The Disco Inferno of RPG sites" and is the home of expert trollers and evil clowns. Their favorite sport is torture, specifically, to torture the fan of any very popular role playing game, while glorifying games that have fallen into anonymity. Finally, it is nearly impossible to get banned on the forums, the worst I have seen is people will get the following instead of an avatar:
Dumbfuck!!!
Their forum seems impossible to troll or incite into a flame war. Look closer, and you will see their weakness, they hate fanboys with a passion. While they delight in causing trouble in, for example, the Elder Scrolls fora, they hate it when those same fanboys stumble upon their forum. Either pretend to be a fanboy, or lead fanboys to their site (which is hard to do in the Elder scrolls forum, since they delete all links to rpgcodex after one rpgcodex evil clown) commented on the wife of the ES lead programmers love of horses...
