If primarily, your motivation for flaming has a great deal to do with relieving your boredom, my vote would be an unequivocal NO. Surely you have better things to do than scouring the forums for offensive newbies in order to amuse yourself?
As a rite of passage, that's just like saying, "You've got to please us old-timers before we'll accept you as a bonafide member." The concept would be far better served by encouraging members to participate and contribute their opinions, making for stimulating and informative forum discussions that benefit this board and all its members. A newcomer would be more likely to join such a discussion and would likely click off to the next horror forum, because this one has nothing but bickering. But stimulating conversation is not always the case, is it?
All reactionary voting aside, who cares?
