What about those new flames?
See that the flames are going now to show interest in threads utilizing the response numbers!

Any know what the criteria are? Burning issues? Controversy?

Hmm. Interesting. If topic is "red hot", it has 10 replies since I last visited. However, if I had visited it last, it also has a flame on a yellow folder. Kind of dilutes the excitement of the initial red flames. Also, is this an invitation to a flame war? This was my first reaction as I thought these folders were branded with gossip or flame wars.

I am totally confused.
Isn't there enough flaming here already. Oye.

They're cool looking, but too distracting. Nice try, but why not just use some plain, un-animated flame graphics?

Well, FWIW, I'd go with these flames every time over the "other" kind!
I'm awfully indifferent!

They kind of scare me. Reminds me of the 4th time I caught on fire. That was probably one of the worst times yet...

Edited by geo1004 because the flames have been put out...

I missed seeing the flames. How about some icicles on some of the cold topics?

Interesting how it's now just "FlyerTalk" and not "FlyerTalk 6.0" as it was before.

What on Earth is everyone talking about? (I've been away from computers and the Internet for a few days.)

It wasn't of this earth 0524!!! I've never seen anything like it before!!! The fire was everywhere, I'm just glad they were able to save the forums they did. InnPoints suffered a little water and smoke damage, but we managed to beat back the flames. We Saved InnPoints again!!!
