Flaming/Flame Wars
Flaming is reacting to someone's board posting or PM in a hostile manner by publicly chastising the person or bombarding the person with nasty posts or PM's. Flaming may occur to users that engage in behavior that violates what is considered proper board netiquette. A flame war occurs when two or more users flame each other in an escalating manner that threatens to continue unabated. If you notice a flame war developing just notify the moderator or adminitrator and let them handle it. Do not take part in flame wars. If you do you will be banned even if you did not start it :-)

One - I think we can all agree there are people in this world who use opiates, stimulants, (or whatever)not for any valid medical reason, but for recreational purposes only. Once addicted, they will go to any lengths to continue to feed their habit without any regard for themselves or anyone around them. They will abuse legal medications in any method and combination they can figure out. (Anyone ever watch "Nancy & Sid"? Prime example.) These are the "pill freaks", "crackheads", (or whatever) and I refuse to put them in the same category as those described below.
These are people who become physically (and sometimes psychically) dependent on substances that are prescribed to them by legitimate physicians for specific and verifiable medical or mental health conditions. If their health condition resolves, the majority of these patients are able to resolve their dependence with the assistance of a physician. Since mental and physical problems can be interrelated, abuse can inadvertently occur. While everyone deserves treatment, for anyone to lump these two groups together is just wrong.
