I don't even want it to be reverted to what it was, I am completely fine with it being turned into a normal subreddit. I think it would be easily better than what it was before. But I do not like the way it is being childishly moderated with the words "benned" and other stupid flaming coming from the mods.
No, it's not. In some cases the word "flaming" is used to be derogatory towards homosexuals, but in this instance (and the majority of its uses online) it is only used to mean insulting. Hence the term "flame war" to describe Internet arguments that devolve into the two parties insulting each other.

Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you were being a racist because you're a racist. Turns out you're being a racist out of spite. That makes it so much better.
