Please! This is the internet! Of course people are going to disagree with you, sometimes very much so. If you are so worried about being flamed, then just watch what you say and think it through. Most of the time people are flamed because they make stupid comments that piss people off. You can say whatever you want, as long as you don't brake any rules, but you have to learn to deal with people disagreeing with you.
Also, you've gotta make sure you know the difference between a flame, and something that was just said very bluntly.
"Your an asshole, I hate you." is a flame.
"That is stupid, and this is why," is a blunt criticism.
You have to learn to take a bit of both if you want to stay on the internet. Just like people are bound to not like you in real life, people are bound to not like what you say on the internet, only there is a much bigger chance because so many people have access to your words.
