In fandom related communities, a lot of the flame wars are the result of a BrokenBase, FandomRivalry, FandomHeresy, or other FanDumb behavior -- which, in turn, is the result of people regarding the fandom as SeriousBusiness. In a way, it can be even more bothersome than dealing with {{troll}}s who come onto the community to bash the entire fandom. Sometimes a fandom Flame War can reach such levels that it becomes a [[http://catb.org/jargon/html/H/holy-wars.html Holy War,]] a massive, prolonged battle of insults. The UsefulNotes/ConsoleWars and [[UsefulNotes/ComputerWars PC vs. Mac debate]] are good examples of these prolonged, though rare, wars. And God help you if you actually start discussing [[BanOnPolitics politics or religion]] -- '''especially''' the UsefulNotes/AmericanPoliticalSystem or the UsefulNotes/ArabIsraeliConflict.
