(This may seem stupid at first, but, I have anger management issues myself, and some of this works for me. No really. I DO have issues.

1: Cooling down
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a.) First off, go here. Post whatever may be ticking you off at home, or school, or anywhere else. (Don't post anything against another user.)
b.) *to avoid flame wars* If someone on the forums is really bothering you and calling you names, do NOT retaliate (fight back.) From your computer, phone, or game system, take a deep breath, think to yourself, "It's not so bad," (I know, it sounds stupid, but bear with me here.) and think of it like a joke. After that, add him to your "Foes list" on the user control panel. This will make you ignore all POSTS made by that user. Then, you can pm people to go to http://widget.mibbit.com/?settings=afce ... rTab=false. (Make sure no one tells the flamer where everyone is)

2: When & Where
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a.) *to avoid flame wars* Cussing is against the rules (It counts as flaming depending on how you use it.) However, it's not a MAJOR rule, and you will not be banned for it (If you don't use it as flame) , but you have to be a good example. Plus, some people are sensitive to curse words, and will sometimes get all over your face saying, "Dat a bad wurd, boi! I report u nao!" So before you cuss, look out for someone with that kind of personality. Say it in front of people who don't really care about curse words, you'll be fine. If there's a guy who is sensitive, avoid using curse words, or censor them.

So far, this is all I got. Additional advice? Comments?
