I dunno, just thinking out loud here.  What do you think?

If you pick a keyword that doesn't have a negative connocation you might get more people using it. For example, call it [DEBATE]. A debate is not a bad thing, and can be very productive. Some people will honestly be interested in productive debates.

If you respond to one of my emails with the title [FLAME] you might just start a flame :) But if you use [DEBATE] I think I'd just accept it as a way of labeling the topic.

Cheers,
Daniel.
