Flame War vs. Debate

[Andromeda18_]

I believe that if forums were all about agreeing with each other on everything that it would be a pretty boring place. At the same time, if all anyone did was call each other names I wouldn't want to be here either.

A debate wouldn't be a debate if people agreed with each other so I guess that you don't need a flame war for a conversation to be interesting.
I find flame wars amusing but that's just it! Besides, they get boring after a while. A debate is, in my opinion, much better. They're interesting and intelligent.
