Paraphrasing from a discussion:

When the conversation hits a certain depth, enforce a new grammar. Only numbers and/or links are allowed, perhaps. The reason is cutting off flame wars misses out on great antifragile opportunities. Sometimes deep in a flame war is when someone post the most valuable statistic or link. Perhaps the language could be called "chill". It could allow what used to be flame wars to continue in a more level headed, scientific discussion.
