Armada
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
UK electronica duo Groove Armada, who together invented this form of flaming and named the technique after themselves.
The Armada is a rare form of flame war in comparison to the others. It usually requires a vast amount of completely irrelevant history and a shitload of ultra bored flame warriors.
- An ingenious poster posts a topic which will divide public opinion dramatically. Debate ensues.
- Fairly rapidly, two 'teams' (let us call them 'Alpha' and 'Omega') develop based almost purely on previously forged friendship alliances and very rarely on the actual topic.
- If a poster from team Alpha makes a comment, every single poster from team Omega will tell them what a complete fucktard they are.
- To each of Omega's comments, each member of team Alpha will make a retaliation comment.
- If a poster from team Omega makes a comment, every single poster from team Alpha will tell them what a complete fucktard they are.
- To each of Alpha's comments, each member of team Omega will make a retaliation comment.
- Internet explodes.
- If a poster from team Alpha makes a comment, every single poster from team Omega will tell them what a complete fucktard they are.
And so on, and so forth.
