i know it sounds bad, but actually what does it mean?
curious,

JANEL,
TO FLAME SOMEONE IS WHEN YOU SEND SOMEONE AN EMAIL THAT IS NASTY, OR STRONGLY WORDED. USUALLY IT'S ALSO WRITTEN IN ALL CAPS, LIKE THIS ONE. .....but don't worry, I'm not flaming you..... 
I stand corrected.
That is correct. It's when you get a scorching or scathing email response, usually in caps, as he said. Lots of times, they contain strong expletives also. Most moderators of forums such as these usually will remove those "flamed" responses from the forums as soon as they are discovered.

I don't know if it would be just that particular post or a permanent banishment (if that is possible.) My interpretation.
An outraged or outrageous reply depending on which side your on.
