Hi Brian,
We deliberately don't want it too wordy, otherwise it would turn into
something more like a terms of service. It is more a guideline so we can
have civil discourse without risk of person attack.
With that in mind we would be open to suggestions over a different word
or few words instead of "inflammatory". A lot of it depends on the use
of the language too.
You can still have passionate views whilst aligning with the Bill & Ted
mantra of "be excellent to each other" :)
Kind Regards
Andrew

Generally a good idea. It can be abused if not careful, due to the
subjective nature of determining what is offensive or "inflammatory".
I would suggest that "inflammatory language" be something that be more
defined and/or allowed toward things but not people (if that is
possible). One could look at the original source code to Linux before it
was 'sanitized' of the colorful language to see some passionate views.
Much opinion expression will be inflammatory to someone (such as my
opinion of Apple or Microsoft).
